Step Sequencer: Velocity Adjustment via Q-Links
While using the Step Sequencer, you can now use the Q-Link knobs to adjust the velocity of the note event at each
step (the Q-Link knobs must be in the Screen edit mode). On MPC X, the number of each step will be shown under
the corresponding Q-Link knob. (This has been added to Operation > Modes > Step Sequencer).
To adjust the velocity of each note event, use the corresponding Q-Link knob to select a value (1–127).
To enter a note event at a step, use the corresponding Q-Link knob to change its velocity from 0 (Off) to a
value of 1 or greater.
To delete a note event from a step, set the corresponding Q-Link knob to its minimum position, 0 (Off).
Pad Perform Mode: User Progressions
You can now use your own progressions (created in the desktop version of the MPC software) on your MPC X or
MPC Live.
To transfer progressions to your MPC X or MPC Live:
1. Connect the storage device that you will use with your MPC X or MPC Live (e.g., the internal drive, an SD card, a
USB drive) to your computer.
2. On your computer, access the storage device and create a folder named Progressions on its root level.
3. Copy your progression files (.progression) from your computer to that Progressions folder.
By default, progressions are saved here:
Windows: C:\Program Files\Akai Pro\MPC\Progressions and/or C:\ProgramData\Akai\MPC\Progressions
macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Akai/MPC/Progressions
4. Eject and disconnect the storage device from your computer, and connect it to your MPC X or MPC Live.
To use your progressions, start your MPC X or MPC Live in Standalone Mode, enter Pad Perform Mode, and tap
Progressions. Your MPC X or MPC Live will scan the Progressions folder you created and add them to the list of
available progressions.
Faster Attack for Amp Envelopes
In the amp envelope of a drum program or keygroup program, an attack value of 0 now produces a much faster
response, thus making your drum hits even punchier than before. (You can set the attack value in Program Edit Mode.
See Operation > Modes > Program Edit Mode > Drum Programs > Filter/Envelope and Keygroup Programs >
Filter/Envelope to learn more.)
Important: Any drum or keygroup programs that you created and saved before this update will load in MPC 2.1 with
an attack value of 1 to ensure backwards compatibility.
