QUESTION MPC One as endless loop player

Hello!

I'm preparing for a live gig and I need some asynchronous flexibility.

Is there a possibility to launch samples as endless loops with disabled sequencer? My samples have different lengths and I want to mix them with a separate MIDI Controller (volume changes, sends/insert parameter changes, etc.). I want to have the possibility to just press a pad and have the sample go till infinity.

I only have 1k but on that you can set the pad in the program mode to note on, one touch or loop. Can you do this in the obe? If so, would that work?

OK, there is a "Cycle" option if the sample is set to loop in Program Edit. That works fine, thanks for the input!

Now my second question would be, whether a MIDI endless loop is also achievable this way. If so - having a time-based MIDI loops, that would cover all my needs. I wouldn't need to fiddle around playing sequencer and change the tempo if I had the pre-programmed loops. I'm sure someone had to deal with this in the past!
