One Method that Simplified Beat Making on the MPC 500

What Up Peeps? Just want to tell y’all about a method I use for my beat-making sessions on the MPC 500 that greatly speeds up my workflow. The One Program method consists of using one program/ 48 sample slots to create an entire beat. I find that it helps me get rid of unnecessary samples I don’t use and reduces the time spent chopping samples. You sometimes need more space to complete the beat, but by making fewer decisions in the early process, I find it speeds up my workflow. Hope you enjoy!
