I've seen people on the forum say that their pads/slider/jog wheel doesn't work properly. Here's a way to check them:
*** I WOULD ADVISE DOING THIS RIGHT WHEN YOU TURN ON THE MPC2KXL FIRST. THIS IS IN CASE YOU GET AN ERROR AND HAVE TO RESTART, NOTHING WILL BE LOST. ***
From the main screen hit SHIFT + 5 (TRIM) then SHIFT + F1.
Hit F5 (MEMCHK) then hit F5 (PADCHK) again.
From there, select either PAD, MEMORY or JOG.
- PAD lets you select a pad bank and tap on your pads for velocity/after touch (sensitivity). This will help to see if a pad switch is bad or not.
You can hold your finger on a pad, press down on it and slowly let go to see the levels of after touch (0-127. I don't know why but the after touch reading shows less to nothing from A - D bank ).
Also from this screen you can check to see if your Note Variation slider works (0-127).
- MEMORY does a CPU memory test. It tests writing and reading to the CPU. Should say test OK.
- JOG allows you to test the jog wheel in either direction (slow/fast) with a number read out.
* Hit MAIN SCREEN to go back to work.
