You can get an explanation directly from the MPC 3000 manual [0].

At least the original MPC series couldn't move the note to the next time slice. The maximum setting was 75%. That made the first note of each pair of 1/8 or 1/16 notes three times the length of the second note.

Beat Maker's maximum swing setting is 132% greater than the MPC. I'll add this to the marketing materials, thank you!
Thanks.
That sounds like a very normal and unremarkable swing implementation, like I've used in every DAW and sequencer. But maybe MPC did it first, and I've been using MPC-like swing this whole time.
