Reviews and questions about the entry-level MPC500

My MPC500 works as midi master, and sends play/stop messages when i use any of the auto-load programs, but when i disable auto-load and try to set up a new program and sequence it does not send midi clock, or play/stop messages.

I guess i am missing a vital part of the program/sequence setup, but i can't work out what.

I have the mpc set to sync master, and have correctly set the track midi channels etc...when i press play the internal sequencer of the MPC runs...but sends no clock or play/stop messages. If i change auto-load to 'ON' and restart the MPC...without touching any cables at all and press play, my other hardware sequencers run perfectly.

Is there a setting to enable transport send when setting up a new program or sequence?

Wish i could work this out.
