Questions regarding capabilities

Post by eamusik2008 »

Hello,

I was looking to purchase the mc808, but had a few questions.

Does the mc 808 allow live transpose changes to drum samples? For example if i am playing a pattern is it possible to tune or change key of sample playing? Also, with the mc808 does it have an automatic chop function, or can you pick the chop points? Last question I have is regarding pattern recording. When recording a pattern on the mc808, is possible to mute the groups while recording for examole on a different track?

Thanks allfor your time!

You can transpose live samples.It does auto chop/truncate. The editor works great for this as well. You can mute the parts when recording.

I'm curious too about a few things - I'm planning to buy the 808 to sequence it with a new electribe, and I'm struggling to understand every nuances of the MIDI implementation...
For example General Purpose Controllers - what are they? Also, the FX section isn't listed among the specified MIDI CC's (apart from the reverb) - is it possible to map some parameters into macros?
