Program
Once a sound is loaded into memory, it cannot be played by pads or
from MIDI until it is assigned within a program. A program is a collection
of 64 sound assignments and can be thought of as a drum set. In a
program, each of 64 MIDI note numbers (35–98) is assigned to one of
the 128 possible sounds currently residing in memory. Once assigned to
a note number, a sound can be played in one of three ways:
1. By receiving a Note On message from the MIDI input;
2. By playing a front panel drum pad (each pad is also assigned to one
of the 64 MIDI note numbers 35–98);
3. By playing drum tracks in sequences (each note event in a drum track
is assigned to one of the 64 MIDI note numbers 35–98).
In addition to the 64 sound assignments, each program also contains a
number of sound modifying parameters for each of the 64 sound
assignments, including envelope, tuning, mixer, and velocity response
data.
The MPC60 has 8 different programs (one of which can be active at a
time) each with its own unique set of 64 assignments. Simply by
changing the active program number (1–8), all 64 sound assignments
and their sound modifying settings will instantly change.
