Ok this doesn; hamper with any security by doing this?

Yea....no slice......it wouldn't be possible to see the waveform on the screen, it's too small. It chops exactly like the Korg Microsampler (chop by numbers). There's a few little tricks to chop faster, I normally just adjust the start point, then copy it to another pad, then adjust that start ...

Copped a MPC 500, surpirsed that it doesn't have a slice function like the my old 1000 and 2500. Its more akin to slicing like a sp404.

Still its good fun have a portable beat machine

Eh....it depends on how much you want to spend, the condition of the MPC 500.....I have both & I love them both, so I would get both :)

K.O. brand new $89

MPC 500 - I paid $400 for mine, mint condition, fat red pads, upgraded memory, warranty (bought it used). I heard a lot of bad things about ...

Someone has given me the option of a mpc 500 or a ko33 ?, which one to cop

Am I wrong in thinking from watching the videos that sequencing is so much better than on a sp404.

Even trimming reminds me of the sp404

Finally got one and its pretty dope, however, I have few issues so to speak.

Can you using only 1 bank at a time?, I was hoping to switch banks to add stuff for my loops but it seems you can't.

Also after keygate sampling, can you still edit them afterwards?.

Did they fix this in keygate sampling.

Sounds not as great as I imagined

Not sure if you finished reading the Initial post....
if you tap tempo your sample and then resample using the auto next feature it will cut your samples seamlessly without ...

Is it fair to say the microsampler is like a turbo version of an asr 10?

How about trimming samples, is it accurate enough similar to a sp 404sx?.
yes it's very accurate. you can trim via percentage which is fast but sometimes not accurate enough (especially when it's a long sample). if you trim via numbers (you see the start and end point as e.g. "84889330") it's not ...

anychance anyone answer my trimming question, would love to see someone make a basic beat making vid.

At the moment it sounds pretty awesome like a turbo asr

I would love to see a video someone demonstrating how fast it is and a general work process for a simple beat please. looking to get one to compliment my mpc.

quick question, what is trimming samples like this. I guess its similar in respects to the sps where you use the dial to adjust start and end points?.

Also I been watching the videos and is it as easy as it sounds, sample a loop and then press a key to sample that particular section, and then ...
