Merging Two Programs - Akai MPC 4000 Reference Manual

Merging two programs

Here's how to merge two programs and copy the result to a new program. You can even
merge a drum program with a key group program.
1. Move the cursor to the Program field, and press the [WINDOW] key.
The Program popup window will appear.
2. Move the cursor to the Do field, and turn the [JOG] dial to change the setting to
MERGE.
The function assigned to the [F3] key will change to MERGE.
3. Press the [F3] key (MERGE).
The Merge Program popup window will appear.
A Merge Program field
Selects one of the programs that will be merged.
B Type field
Indicates the type of program you selected in the Merge Program field ( 1 ).
C Source Program field
Selects the other program that will be merged.
D Type field
Indicates the type of program you selected in the Source Program field ( 3 ).
E New name field
Indicates the name of the new program into which the two original programs will be
merged. When you turn the [JOG] dial, the Rename popup window will appear, allowing
you to edit the program name.
F [F1] key (CANCEL)
Cancels the operation and closes the popup window.
G [F6] key (DO IT)
Executes the Merge operation.
4. Move the cursor to the Merge Program field, and turn the [JOG] dial to select
one of the programs you want to merge.
5. Move the cursor to the Source Program field, and turn the [JOG] dial to select
the other program you want to merge.
6. Move the cursor to the New name field, and turn the [JOG] dial.
The Rename popup window will appear, allowing you to edit the name of the program.
7. Input the name for the program that will be created, and press the [F6] key (ENTER).
The popup window will close.
8. To execute the Merge command, press the [F6] key (DO IT).
If you merged a drum program with a key group program, the newly created program will
be the same type as the program in the Merge Program field. (The data will be handled
in the same way as in the Convert Program command.)
