54 Chapter 7: Functions of a pad

MPC500 Operator's Manual rev 1.0

Tip: When you select VELOCITY in the 'Type' field, the velocity of the pad event can be played in 12 Levels, but if you select an option other

than VELOCITY, the note variation value will be played in 12 Levels. The note variation data can change the value of a specific parameter

when you play the pad’s sample. For example, if you select TUNE in the 'Type' field, when you hit the pad, the note variation data of TUNE

will be sent to the sampler section with the pad event, and the TUNE value will be changed according to the pad you played.

During Sequence recording, the Note variation data will be recorded with the note event and you can play back the sequence exactly as it

was played. The note variation value is also used for the Q- Link slider function.

Setting the Track Mute with Pads

 Track Mute Page

You can mute/unmute tracks in real time during playback by hitting the pads. This is useful when you have several instruments assigned to

different tracks, so that you can play a song and switch tracks on/off using the pads while playing back your sequence.

Pressing the [TRACK MUTE] button brings up the track mute page.

'Parameter' Field

In the 'Parameter' field, you can select the following two functions.

Track mute - Sets the track mute parameter in each Track's parameter page with drum pads

Track solo - The MPC500 will play only the selected track while it mutes the other tracks.

You can switch the tracks to play, by hitting a pad.

'Pad Bank' Field

This shows pad current selected pad bank. You can change pad bank directly with PAD BANK buttons.

'Track Status' Field

This shows the status of each track as follows:

Track Mute Mode

When Track mute is selected on upper line, MPC500 is in Track mute mode. You can set Track mute on or off with drum pads. Each

track's corresponds to each pad as follows:
