Pad Kit
Each square is a pad. Filled = has a sample. The blue chip is the computer key that plays it.
Drums (808/909/Lo-Fi/Exotic), Percussion, plus melodic Keys & Bass — generated on your machine, loaded onto the active bank.
Bank
4 banks per program — 48 sounds on MPC500, 64 on MPC1000.
Grid
Click a pad to select/play. Drop a .wav/.mp3 onto a pad to assign it — it's auto-converted to

Right-click (or long-press on touch) a pad for options: volume, cut/trim, reverse, pitch…
