Recording a sound

In this section, you will learn how to record sounds into the MPC2500
and assign these sounds so they can be played with the pads. This
way you are not restricted to only playing with the sounds that are
already included in the presets. Below is how to record an analog
signal from a CD player connected to the RECORD IN on the rear
panel of the MPC2500.

Preparing the recording

01. Connect the LINE OUT of your CD player
to the RECORD IN of the MPC2500.
The analog input of the MPC2500 is a
standard phone jack, while the CD Player's
LINE OUT is most likely a dual RCA jack.
To connect the CD player, you will need
two RCA to ¼ inch TS connectors.
02. Once you have connected the CD player's audio output to the RECORD IN of the MPC2500,
press the [ MODE ] button and then [ PAD 5 ] (RECORD).
This brings up the RECORD page, where you can change the settings for the recording.
03. Select the Input field, and select ANALOG.
04. Select the Time field and set the recording time.
The MPC2500 will finish the recording at the time set in this field. We recommend you set the time
a little longer than the actual recording time. You may also finish the recording manually.
05. Test the recording level by playing the CD. Check the level meter on screen and adjust the level
using the [ REC GAIN ] knob.
Important: If the meter goes too far to the right, the sound will be distorted, but if the sound level
is too low, the sample will gain a lot of noise. Set the level as high as possible but not reaching the
right edge.

Starting the recording

06. Cue up your CD player with the audio that you would like to record.
07. Press [ F6 ] (RECORD) button while in the RECORD page.
The MPC2500 will be in record enable mode and the bottom of the screen will look like this:
This indicates that the MPC2500 is waiting for the incoming signal. The recording will begin
automatically when the CD begins playing.
Pressing the [ F5 ] (CANCEL) button cancels the record enable mode and resets the MPC2500.
Pressing the [ F6 ] (START) button manually starts the recording before you play the CD player.
Note: If you press the [ F6 ] (RECORD) button while a sound is already playing,
the MPC2500 will start the recording right after you press the button.
