Use the BPM field to adjust the tempo of the sequence.
To set whether the sequence follows its own tempo (Seq) or a global tempo (Gbl), tap the
Seq/Gbl button next to the BPM field. Alternatively, press and hold Shift and then press Tap.
The time counter at the top of the screen indicates the current playhead position. This is shown in
most of the modes. See General Features > Time Counter/Locate to learn about this.
Use the Time Division selector to set the value that determines how many steps each bar of the sequence will have.
The T indicates a triplet-based value.
Alternatively, tap TC at the bottom of the screen to open the Timing Correct window. See General Features >
Timing Correct (TC) to learn about this.
To enter or delete steps in a sequence:
1. Use the Pad –/+ buttons at the bottom of the screen to select the pad whose steps you want to enter or delete.
The current pad number is shown in the upper-left corner.
Alternatively, use the Pad Select feature: Tap and hold Pad Sel, press the desired pad, and then release Pad
Sel. You can also use Pad Select as a “latching” feature: tap Pad Sel so it is activated, press the desired pad,
and then tap Pad Sel once more so it is deactivated.
2. Use the Bar –/+ buttons at the bottom of the screen to select the bar of the sequence whose steps you want to
enter or delete. The current bar number is shown in the upper-left corner.
3. Press the pads of your MPC hardware, or tap a button at the bottom of the sequencer. Each pad corresponds to
a step in the bar and will light with a color corresponding to its velocity.
Keep in mind that for time divisions larger than 16, the bar’s steps will be represented by multiple pad banks. In
this case, use Pad Bank Buttons A and B to view all the steps within a bar.
For time divisions larger than 16, the bar’s steps will be represented by multiple pad banks. In
this case, use the left and right arrows (< and >) by the step numbers (1–16, 17–32, etc.) to
change which steps are shown in the sequencer.
Alternatively, use Pad Bank Buttons A and B.
