Quick Start / Tutorial

This chapter should help you to familiarize yourself with some basic MPC features. To get the most out of this tutorial, we recommend reproducing each of the described steps.

The display on your MPC Touch reflects what it is controlling in the software, but due to space and character limitations, the hardware display is slightly different (e.g., parameter names may be abbreviated, the layout may be different or spread across multiple tabs, etc.).

Important: MPC Touch’s Q-Link Knobs control one column of parameters at a time. Whenever this manual instructs you to use the Q-Link Knobs to adjust parameters, you can use the Scroll Knob (above the Q-Link Knobs) to move through the different columns.

On the following pages we will create a short song to show you important aspects of using the MPC software in conjunction with the MPC Touch.

Starting Up

Make sure you have completed all of the steps described in Introduction > Setup. This includes:

• Installing the necessary drivers and software.

• Connecting your MPC Touch to a power source using the included power adapter and powering it on.

• Connecting your MPC Touch to your computer with a standard USB cable.

• Open and unlocking your MPC software.

Creating a Drum Kit

Let’s start by making a simple drum kit.

Press Shift+Menu/Browse to show the Browser. Then, use the touchscreen to navigate to where your drum sounds are located:

• To view the files and folders on your computer, tap Project in the lower-left corner.

• To view the pads and the project’s sample pool, tap Samples in the lower-left corner.

• To move to the previous folder, tap the up (∧) button in the upper-left corner.

• To move through a list, swipe up or down. To move more quickly, use two or three fingers.

• To skip to the top or bottom of the list, swipe left or right (respectively) with two fingers.

• To select a file or folder, tap it.

• To enter a selected folder, tap it once more or tap Open.

• To load a selected sample file, tap it once more or tap Load. This will load it to the currently

selected pad (lit green) and the project’s sample pool.

• To load an entire folder of samples, press and hold Shift, and then press Load All. This will load all samples in the selected folder to the project’s sample pool.

• To preview a selected sound, tap Play () at the bottom of the touchscreen.

Viewing folders in the Browser. Viewing files in the Browser.

There are two ways to load samples in this mode: using the Project tab or the Samples tab. Let’s try each of them.

First, load a bass drum using the Project tab:

1. Make sure the Project button in the lower-left corner of the touchscreen is marked red. If it isn’t, tap it.

2. Press Pad 1 or tap Pad 1 in the touchscreen to select it. The pad will be lit green.

3. Use the techniques listed above to find a bass drum sample you like.

4. To load it to the selected pad (Pad 1, in this case), either double-tap it, or tap the Load button in the lower-right corner. Now, you can press Pad 1 to play the bass drum sample.

The Project tab in the Browser

Tip: To load an entire folder of samples, press and hold Shift, and then press Load All.

Next, load a snare drum using the Samples tab:

1. Tap Samples at the bottom of the touchscreen. This lets you view the pads and project’s sample pool.

2. Press Pad 2 or tap Pad 2 in the touchscreen to select it. The pad will be lit green.

3. Use the techniques listed above to find a snare drum sample you like.

4. To load it to the selected pad (Pad 2, in this case) double-tap it. Now, you can press Pad 2 to play the snare drum sample.

The Samples tab in the Browser.

To create a simple drum set, repeat the above steps for other pads. We recommend loading a closed hihat and an open hi-hat.

Recording a Drum Sequence

Now that your drum kit is set up, let’s record a drum sequence.

1. Press the Rec button to activate Record Mode.

2. To start the actual recording, press the Play button. The pre-count will count one measure before the software starts to record. We recommend recording only one sound (pad) at a time, especially if you are not familiar with playing drums on the pads.

3. Play a simple bass drum pattern. The note events you just recorded will automatically be placed in the grid (in this case, on 16 recording will enter Overdub Mode automatically; the sequence plays again from the beginning and keeps looping, allowing you to record further notes. Don’t stop the recording!

4. Play the snare drum part, then a hi-hat part.

5. When you’re done recording, press the Stop button.

If you start recording again on this sequence, keep in mind that the pads you play in your new recording will automatically replace existing notes played with the same pads. To prevent this, you can start again from Step 1 but press the Overdub button instead of the Rec button. Overdub lets you record additional note events over the existing Sequence.

The Undo button functions differently while in Record Mode. Normally, pressing Undo will undo just the last event. When there is an event to undo, the Undo button will be lit solid. While recording, the Undo button will flash. In this case, pressing Undo will erase all events from that recording (i.e., since Play or Play Start was pressed).

notes). The initial measure length is two bars. After the two bars, the

Organizing Samples

We recommend doing some renaming of your programs and samples before going further.

The collection of drum samples you loaded earlier (and their respective pad assignments) are arranged into a program. When you load this program in the future, you will be able to use all of the samples that belong to it.

Let’s rename the exisiting program as we’ll want to create more programs later on.

To rename a program:

1. Press Main to enter Main Mode.

2. In the Program section in the lower part of the touchscreen, tap the cursor icon on the right edge.

3. Use the virtual keyboard that appears to enter a new name (e.g., “Drums”), and then tap Do It.

Renaming a program in Main Mode.

To rename your samples, let’s use your computer. In the Project Information panel, right-click a sample name a sample (e.g., “1980Kick1”) and select Rename. Use your computer keyboard to rename the sample (e.g., “Bass Drum”). Repeat this for the other samples in the program. This will help keep your program organized as you add more samples to it.

The Project Information panel in the software.

Now would be a good time to save your project.

To save your project, using your computer, click the File menu and select Save Project. Alternatively, press Ctrl+S (Windows) or +S (Mac OS X).

Editing Note Events

In the grid, you can see your recorded notes (or note events) as a sequence.

To enter Grid View, press Main, and then tap the grid icon on the left side of the touchscreen.

In the Grid View, you can do any of the following:

• To zoom in or out, tap the magnifying-glass icon in the upper-right corner. Then, in the grid, spread two fingers apart or pinch two fingers together. You can do this for each axis, horizontal or vertical.

• To select all notes for a pad, press the desired pad.

• To select a single note, tap the select box in the upper-right corner. Then, in the grid, tap the note.

• To move the selected notes, tap Nudge at the bottom of the touchscreen, and then use the Data

Dial or –/+ buttons to shift the notes left or right.

By default, you can position notes only by quantization values, defined by the Time Correct value (see below).

To change the position of notes without restricting (“snapping”) them to the grid, tap and hold Don’t Snap in the lower-left corner of the touchscreen, and then use the Data Dial or –/+ buttons to shift the notes. In this case, each nudge is equivalent to 4 ticks.

The Grid View with Pad A02 selected.

• To adjust the start point or end point of the selected notes (without changing their position), tap Edit Start or Edit End at the bottom of the touchscreen, and then use the Data Dial or –/+ buttons.

• To transpose the selected notes up or down, tap Transpose at the bottom of the touchscreen, and then use the Data Dial or –/+ buttons.

• To adjust the velocity of the selected notes, tap Velocity at the bottom of the touchscreen, and then use the Data Dial or –/+ buttons.

• To show or hide the velocity lane, tap the up (∧) button in the lower-right corner of the touchscreen to show the velocity lane below the grid. Each note’s velocity is represented by a vertical bar. The higher and more red the bar is, the higher the velocity is.

Tap the up (∧) button once more to show a taller version of the velocity lane after which it will turn into a down (∨) button, which you can then tap to hide the velocity lane.

Adjusting velocities in the Grid View.

• To open the Timing Correct settings, press and hold Shift, and then tap TC at the bottom of the touchscreen. See Operation > Modes > Main Mode to learn about these settings.

• To open the metronome settings, press and hold Shift, and then tap Click at the bottom of the touchscreen. See Operation > Modes > Main Mode to learn about these settings.

• To switch to the previous or next track, press and hold Shift, and then tap Track – or Track + (respectively) at the bottom of the touchscreen.

• To mute or solo the track, press and hold Shift, and then tap Mute or Solo (respectively) at the bottom of the touchscreen.
