Greeetings, Bless-
ppls, an article to actually have a tutorial on transfer of samples from the 8) (M-usicians P-aradise C-omethrough) machine to the computer and vice-versa, whether it be by formatted? zip disks, or scsi transfers, mpc formated hard drives and the likes. also the use of external cd roms for loading sample cds, if you ever want to do that, and basically the different methods of actually having your pc talk to your mpc,
bless...

There's no tutorial on this as the MPC dont talk to PCs - it would be a mighty short tutorial! NO SCSI transfers at all - all transfers have to be done manually by swapping disks (unless you wish to put yourself through the torture of a MIDI sample dump ) :D

There's plenty of info about compatibility, transferring files and zip drives in the FAQ section of this site.

LOL, nobody from London talks proper, we're all cockney geezers who talk in rhyming slang.

Easy guvnor, apples & pears an' all that. Fancy a jellied eel? 8)

Pikee = gypsy (travellers who live in caravans known for their less than friendly nature)

cool, thanks, any idea where pikee came from?
