Hi-
Extremely frustrating problem here!
Everything appears to be working ok at first. Load samples, kits, whatever, etc. Knock in a basic sequence, loop, press play.
Then, as I add more parts, the MPC will randomly switch me to pad bank C, (but sometimes B) and then stop my sequence!
It only does this when I push buttons or hit pads on the right side of the case, and only when I do so with a little bit of pressure behind them.
In fact, I've tried knocking on the right side of the case and the same effect is achieved--switch to C, stop sequence.
I'm sure that something mechanical is messed up in there--it's not a software problem. I recently took the MPC on an airplane, and I'm worried that something is damaged inside--maybe one of the ribbon cables or chips is loose?
Has anyone had a similar experience, or do any technical gurus happen to know what kind of looseness or mechanical error would cause such a thing to happen?
Thanks,
Tim
