Loop playback of a phrase sample

In this section, you will learn how to create a sequence using a phrase sample. To handle the phrase sample with the sequence
function, you need to adjust the start/end points of the sample and then set the tempo of the sequence to the tempo of the
phrase.
Proceed as described in the "Recording a sound" section on page 5 and record a phrase sample. To play back the
loop to the rhythm, record by bars (1bar, 2 bars....).
Tip : When you record a phrase, start the recording a little before and stop the recording a little after the part
that you wish to use. This way, you ensure that you are not chopping off any desired audio.

Adjusting the start/end points of the sample

To play the loop to the rhythm, you need to adjust the start/end points so that only the desired part of the sample
will be played. To adjust the start/end points, use TRIM mode.
01. Press the [ MODE ] button and then [ PAD 6 ] (TRIM).
This switches to the TRIM mode, where you can edit samples.
In this mode, you can set the start and end points in the St and End Field of the TRIM page, respectively.
The waveform from the set start point to the set end point will be highlighted and the MPC2500 will play
only the highlighted part.
02. Select the Sample field in the upper left corner and select a sample you wish to edit.
03. Select the St (start) field and adjust the start point. You can change the start point by turning the
[ DATA ] wheel.
Adjust this point so that the first beat of the phrase will be played when you hit the pad. You can check
the sound by hitting any pad 1 - 12.
Note : If you set the start point too early (smaller value), it may take some time to play the first beat after
you hit the pad. If you set the start point too late (larger value), the first beat may be missing.
04. Select the End field and adjust the end point. You can change the end point by turning the [ DATA ]
wheel.
Adjust this point so that the playback of the phrase will end when you hit the pad. You can check the
sound by hitting any pad 1 -12.
Note : If you set the end point too early (smaller value), the playback may end before the end of the
phrase. If you set the end point too late (larger value), the playback may have unnecessary noise or
silence at the end of the phrase.
Tip : If you hold [ PAD 16 ] while in the TRIM page, the MPC2500 will play back the sample from
the start point to the end point repeatedly (loop playback). Use this function to make sure you set
the start and the end points properly. If you don't set those points properly, the phrase will not be
played to the rhythm and will sound off-beat.
