Insert Effects

You can select up to four insert effects for each pad or keygroup or for the entire
Program. You can use various effects included in your MPC software as well as other
VST and AU plugins installed on your computer.
To learn how to use insert effects in the MPC software, please see Effects > Insert
Effects.
Important:
When using keygroup insert effects, they will be applied to the entire Keygroup Program. This is because
a Keygroup Program uses the same sound across all pads, as opposed to Drum Programs where each
pad can have its own insert effect.
If a pad's or keygroup's routing is set to anything other than Program, then Program insert effect will not
be applied to that pad or keygroup.
Tip: For a list of all available MPC software effects and their parameters, please see Appendix > Effects
and Parameters.

Send Effects

You can select up to four send effects for each pad or keygroup
or for the entire Program. You can use various effects included in
your MPC software as well as other VST and AU plugins installed
on your computer.
To learn how to use send effects in the MPC software, please
see Effects > Send Effects.
Important: To use a send effect, you have to load an effect into
the corresponding send effect slot in Track Mixer Mode.
Tip: For a list of all available MPC software effects and their
parameters, please see Appendix > Effects and Parameters.
