Triggering a Sound from an External Signal—the
Audio Trigger
This feature of the MPC60 allows one of its internal sounds to be
triggered by an external transient audio signal. The triggering is non-
dynamic. If dynamic triggering or triggering of more than one sound is
needed you must use an analog trigger-to-MIDI converter, available from
various manufacturers.
To select this feature, choose option 8, Audio Trigger, from the SOUNDS
screen. The following screen will appear:
==== Audio Trigger (Use Sync Input) ===A
Plays note:64/A01-Sound_name
(Triggering is only active while this
screen is displayed.)
========================================
To use this feature, connect the triggering signal to the SYNC IN jack on
the rear panel of the MPC60. The triggering signal can be any
percussive sound, but best results will be achieved by using a signal of
consistent dynamics and little background noise. The SYNC LEVEL
control on the rear panel should be used to set the triggering threshold.
The only field on this screen is the Plays note field. This is used to select
which of the 64 note numbers (35–98) in the current program will play
when the signal is received. Since the triggering is non-dynamic, the
sound will always play at full velocity.
COMMENT: Triggering can only be done while this screen is
showing, and therefore sequences cannot be played while
triggering is being done.
