 Input Thru function
The MPC2500 can mix an incoming audio signal from REC IN or
DIGITAL IN with the internal playback from the MPC2500. You
can also control level, pan, cut-off frequency and resonance of the
incoming signal with the Q-Link sliders and knobs in real-time.
 Q-Link sliders & knobs
By using the Q-Link sliders and knobs, you can control parameters
such as filter, tune, etc. For controlling the parameter in a Pad,
there are two ways - “NOTE ON” and “REAL TIME.”
