- MPC 2000XL owners with modern expansion folders
- Worth noticing
- Programs over 64 pads are split into multiple programs; stacked pad samples are mixed with layer tuning, level, and pan applied.
Field notes
The conversion map describes how pad assignments, tuning, level, pan, attack, and decay carry over, while noting that stacked samples are mixed into one sound. The page also explains that the resulting program folder can be copied to compatible media and loaded from the MPC 2000XL's LOAD screen. A separate Kit Builder is presented for making programs from a user's own samples.
