Hardware: When the recording is finished, the MPC hardware's display will show new options. Use the
Cursor Buttons to select a field, and use the Data Dial or -/+ buttons to change the setting:
• Track: Select a Track to assign the sample to.
• Assign to Pad: Select a pad to assign the sample to. Alternatively, simply press the pad.
• Root Note: Sets where the sample's original pitch will be on the keyboard.
To save the sample, press F5 (Keep). To delete the recording and try again, press F2 (Retry). To listen to
the sample before deciding, press F4 (Play).

Direct Record
You can also record a sample as a Sequence is playing and automatically place the newly recorded
sample directly into the Sequence. This process is called Direct Record. This is helpful when you want to
record a sample that is at the same tempo as a specific Sequence.
To use Direct Record:
1. During playback of a Sequence, record a sample as you normally would (described above in
Sample Rec and Sample Stop).
2. When the Keep or Retry Last Sample window appears, click any of the following:
• Click and drag the Assign to Pad field to select a pad to assign the sample to.
• To automatically add the sample to the currently playing Sequence, check Add Event. (This
option is available only when using Direct Record.)
