• Preferences: Other Tab
Here, you can set various other MIDI and
audio parameters.
Hardware: Press Shift + Song and then press
F1 (Other) to open the Other tab. Use the
Cursor Buttons to select the corresponding
option, and use the Data Dial or -/+ buttons to
change it. Not all options in the software's
Other tab are available through the MPC
hardware display.
o Tap Tempo: Click this drop-down menu to set how many times you have to press your MPC
hardware's Tap Tempo button until the new tempo is recognized.
o Filter 'All Notes Off' CC: Check this box to filter out All Notes Off data. If you have connected
another device to your MPC hardware's MIDI In, checking this box will cause the software to
ignore "All Notes Off" ("MIDI panic") messages. That is, if a MIDI device sending MIDI
messages into the MPC hardware sends a MIDI panic message, the software will not stop all
notes and will continue as before (recording, for instance).
o Program Change: Click this drop-down menu to select what an incoming MIDI Program
Change message will change: a Program, Sequence, or Track.
o Vintage Mode: Click this drop-down menu to select an audio quality emulation for the
software's audio output. The software can emulate the particular sonic qualities of, for example,
the MPC3000 or MPC60, or of course no emulation (None).
o Sampling Bit Depth: Click this drop-down menu to set the bit depth of the audio recorded from
a sample.
