displayed to the right of the word BAR . To set the
number of the bar to which the sequence loops back,
move the cursor to the field to the right of the word
BAR and enter the new number.
COMMENT: If the bar to loop to is bar number 1 and
the sequence is in Record mode, the MPC3000 will
automatically switch from Record to Overdub mode at
the moment the sequence loops back—this will prevent
accidental erasure of any notes just recorded. In the
event that the bar to loop to is bar number 2 or higher
and the sequence is in Record or Overdub mode the
MPC3000 will automatically switch to Play mode at
the moment the sequence loops back to the specified
bar.
The Track Data area (lines 4-6):
• The Active Track field (
Trk: 1
1
1 1 1-(unused)
in the example
screen):
This field displays the active track number within the sequence. The
active track is the track that, when Record or Overdub mode is
entered, will be recorded into from the MIDI keyboard or pads. Also,
if the
Soft thru field is on (described in the “MIDI Functions”
chapter of this manual) and the pads or MIDI keyboard is played,
the played notes will be sent out over MIDI in real time using the
active track’s MIDI channel and port assignments. Only one track
can be active at a time.
• The Track Name field ( Trk: 1-(unused) (unused)
(unused) (unused)
(unused) in the example
screen)
This field has no on-screen title, but is the 16-character name of the
active track, and is located directly to the right of the active track
number. It is changed in the same manner as the sequence name,
detailed above.
• The Type field:
This is a choice field with two options—MIDI and DRUM:
1. MIDI : Select this option if you want to record normal
non-drum MIDI data from an external MIDI keyboard
into the selected track. MIDI tracks do not use the
internal sound generator or pads.
2. DRUM : Select this option if you want to record drum data
into the selected track. Drum tracks are the same as
MIDI tracks except for the following:
A. The output of the track plays to the internal
drum sound generator.
B. You can record drum notes into the track using
the front panel pads.
C. In sequence editing screens, note events in
drum tracks are visually identified and
