Reviews and questions about the entry-level MPC500

on my mpc500 i cannot get realtime erase to work with midi note data.

i press the pad i wish to erase note data from, + the erase button but nothing happens.

is this normal? i am currently erasing only using the erase menu, which is not great as i have to erase the whole track.

has anyone successfully erased midi data with the realtime erase command?

Both erase+pad and pad+erase should work...

Make sure you're in overdub mode (not record mode) and that you have correct midi notes assigned.

Other than that, no idea...

worked it out in the end. you have to press the note you wish to be erased and the erase button...its a shame...i was hoping that erase+pad would erase all note data on that midi channel. more useful than nothing but fiddly.
