Akai tells homie its pad sensitivity? Smh Thats a dam bug of the worse kind

While playing a sequence i went to add note repeat so pressed shift and note repeat ( to latch it on ) but when i pressed the note repeat button THE WHOLE SEQUENCE STUTTERED ! as in it repeated the step again and again (sort of like the scatter function on the TR8)
Also , MPC X does NOT output midi start from ANY of the 4 midi outputs when in standalone, as it says it does in the preferences settings page. I do hope this is fixed in the upcoming update that Akai mentioned on saturday!

perhaps it has to do with how much CPU is being used on a per unit basis? I mean if one had a lot of time stretching, samples in memory, different programs with complex settings, etc, this can add extra duty on the CPU (this IS a computer after all).
some people use midi keyboards some use physical gear and midi. to simply say "its a bug" just because a handful of enthusiasts have the issue on an enthusiast forum does not make it a bug.
i have not read every post in this thread but Im sitting here now tapping note repeat on an 8 bar sequence with a couple of choice programs and using swing and note repeat is working as it should. I should say i ONLY use BOTH machines standalone.
if someone wants to post a step by step to show the bug is reproduced EACH time, go ahead and do so, so others who aren't having an issue can attempt.

And Akai indicating that it’s pad sensitivity is interesting since no one is touching the pad. Are they trying to say the sound of the speakers are triggering it? Did anyone see this when they were using headphones?
Grab your phone the next time it happens and record a video of it happening with nobody pressing pads.
Also if it was due to cpu overload that would still be a bug. The 4 people here who saw it, how taxed was your cpu? How big was your project?
I use my MPC 4000 live. I use Note repeat all the time. With all sensitivity levels... in clubs with BIG speakers. Never seen this before. This behavior would stop me from being able to play in front of a live audience.... which would be a shame for a unit called MPC Live....
