"Hi, I’m Amir from Precision Audio Productions and on behalf of Expert Village we’re going to be talking about recording a sequence on a MPC 2000XL. What you do first, choose the track that you want to start with, start with track one and you take one instrument and for this example we’re going to put the sample on track one. So what you do is press record, play/start, the count you’re in. So that part the sample is recorded on track one. Go to the next track, next track we’re going to put our drums. Press start, record, count you’re in. Okay, go to the next track, put our hi-hats on this track and for that sequence that will be complete unless you want to add more things. More things can be added but that’s basically how to record a sequence on MPC 2000XL. I’m Amir Tauheed from Precision Audio Productions, thank you very much. "
