LOOP is set to "OFF" in the PLAY/RECORD screen, additional bars are added to
the end of the sequence as it is recorded past the last bar. This way, the sequence
will continue to add bars as you record, even though the display initially shows
"Bars: 1".
As the screen states, the NOTE VALUE setting in the TIMING
CORRECT screen is forced to "OFF(1/384)" during 16 channel recording.
5. While holding the RECORD key on the MPC60, start the external sequences
playing from the beginning of its sequence. As soon as the MPC60 receives the
sync signals, it will enter RECORD mode and begin recording the data from the
other sequences in real time. Once the transfer is finished, stop the external
sequences and the MPC60 will stop automatically, or manually stop the
MPC60.
NOTE: The OVERDUB key is disabled during this mode.
6. The MPC60 now contains the transferred sequence and may be played using
the PLAY, PLAY START, «, <, LOCATE, >, and » keys. Play the sequence- it
the transfer was successful, press MAIN SCREEN to return to the
PLAY/RECORD screen to edit the sequence as usual. If the transfer didn't come
out as intended, simply try again by repeating step 4 above.
