How do I control sound modules with the MPC1000 Pads and Sequencer?
The key to this is the MIDI field of the selected sequence Track, on the Main page: this controls where you direct the MIDI output from that Track to. You can use this in combination with the Program field, so one Track can control both the MPC1000 sampler and/or an external synth or sampler. It also works for controlling other MIDI devices such as FX boxes, and you can embed Program and Control Changes in a sequence by recording them or using the Step Edit Insert command. As with MIDI, live pad hits are directed to the MPC1000 sampler and/or external MIDI according to the Program & MIDI settings of the selected Track.
