Sound Library

The Sound Library opens the menu providing access to factory sounds and

samples imported via iTunes or created with iMPCʼs sampler. There is also

the option of viewing sounds according to the Program theyʼre a part of.

To import samples using iTunes file transfer, open iTunes, click your iPad

under Devices in the left-hand menu, and open the Apps tab. At the bottom

of the page where it says File Sharing, click on iMPCʼs icon, and click the

Add button at the bottom of the right-hand menu. Select the files you want to

import from your computer, tap Open, and theyʼll automatically be synced to

the app.

Sample Drag Behavior

To add a sample to a pad, simply drag the sound from the menu

directly to a pad.

Dragging a sample from one pad to another copies the sample from

the first pad to any subsequent pad.

Drag a sample from the pad off the screen to delete the sample

from the pad.
