So I just got a MPD32 and trying to figure out what I need to set the pads to so I dont have to bang them.

It has 3 parameters

Pad sensitivity
1-16

Pad Curve
A-D

Pad Velocity


What would be a good settings to set it to so I can tap them lightly

9C kicks ass, great for programming phat beats, really the only setting you'll ever want or need.


dude, do your own homework. :roll:
keep tapping them while changing the sensitivity, they're probably all slightly different anyway.

I'd go back to the store with a shotgun and ask for some answers. maybe that's just me playing too much GTAIV, dunno, the lines between reality and games is blurring.

good luck, I gotta go take out some pimps and monitor a drug deal.

The manual is on the CD that came with the MPD32 as a PDF file.

Man i have a shitload of questions but I try to do some research before I ask for help.

Google is your friend.

use the velocity plug in. set the out low/comp/drive how you like. save as default/preset.
