Adjusting the master level
You can adjust the level of the headphone and the stereo
out by turning the MAIN VOLUME knob. The MAIN VOL-
UME changes the analog signal level. This will also adjust
the entire level of the MPC2500 digitally.

You will set the digital signal level, which will be
sent out to the DA converter. The MPC2500 can
output up to 32 sounds simultaneously. There is
the great difference in the level when you play
single sample and play 32 sounds. If you increase
the value in the Mater level field, you can increase
the entire level of the MPC2500 to create more pow-
erful sound with less noise. However, if you play-
back many sounds at the same time, the level may
be overloaded, which may cause distortion. If you
decrease the value in the Master level field, you can
prevent distortion when you play many sounds at
the same time. However, you cannot have a good
result in respect to the noise or punch of the sound.
Set the appropriate value in the Master level field
depending on the application.
