In the XPM expansion, the drum programs are set up to take advantage of the MPC's "16 Levels" feature. One pad can host a single snare sample, but via 16 Levels, you can map that snare across 16 pads with pitch shifting. This allows you to play melodic snare runs (a Timbaland trademark) live, something impossible with standard WAV looping.
Timbaland’s hi-hats often feature rapid triplets and unexpected rolls. Use the MPC’s Note Repeat function combined with the pack's tight closed hats to build urgent, rolling top-loops.
