Key Group
Here, you can set additional keygroup program parameters.
Tips:
• The loaded sample’s root key will determine where the original pitch is
located. For example, if the root key is C3, the original sample is located
at Pad D13.
• In a keygroup program, you can also use the pads on your MPC
hardware to play samples assigned to keygroups. The 128 pads (A01 to
H16) correspond to MIDI notes from from note number 0 to 127, allowing
you to easily play a melody with a single sample over a wide range.
KG Select (Keygroup Select) lets you select a specific keygroup for editing. This parameter works in
conjunction with the Number of KG (keygroups) parameter in the Edit Layers section, which lets you
create up to 128 keygroups within one keygroup program. A default keygroup program contains only
one single keygroup. When you have created more than one keygroup with Number of KG, use KG
Select to select any keygroup for editing. All selects all available keygroups of a keygroup program for
simultaneous editing.
Key Track allows you to switch a sample’s automatic transposition on or off. If this is off, you will always
hear the same pitch of the sample, no matter which note is triggered by pads or a connected MIDI keyboard.
Level controls the overall volume level of the loaded sample(s).
Pan controls the overall panning of the loaded sample(s) in the stereo field.
Note Range lets you restrict the key range used for a sample’s playback. Only notes with a key number
higher or equal (Lo) or lower and equal (Hi) to the selected value will trigger a sound. The settings for Lo
and Hi are also shown in the virtual keyboard in the Edit Layers section.
Tip: Set the Lo parameter to A0 and the Hi parameter to C8 to emulate the range of a standard 88-key piano.
