How To Use This Manual - Akai MPC 60 Operator's Manual

1.2 How to use this manual

The MPC60 and this manual were designed for people who don't like
reading manuals and want to start working immediately.
The manual teaches the MPC60's operation in a logical, step-by-step
manner. The sections are presented in the order that most people want to
learn them. To start using your MPC60 as soon as possible, we recommend
that you first read (or skim) through sections 2 and 3, "The Basics" and
"Recording sequences", to get a general understanding of the MPC60. After
that, you will find that most other functions are very easy to figure out by
experimentation:
1. Press the key which you think would most likely contain the
function you are looking for. For example, to sample a new
sound, press the SOUNDS key.
2. Follow the instructions presented on screen. If you're
confused, press and hold the HELP key for further
explanation.
3. If you still can't figure it out, find the section in the manual
which explains that function, either by looking in the table of
contents or the index.
