WAV. Samples folder loaded on a SanDisk 32gb flash drive, working perfectly with Pioneer's SP-16 Toraiz.
But when plugged into the MPC Live I am unable to see the contents of the WAV. Sample folder. :shock:
I am unsure as to whether i have to format the flash drive, get a separate flash drive for the MPC altogether, or record performances from the Toraiz to the MPC.
:popcorn:
And also is there a way to import MP3's for use in the MPC Live, or would I have play a clip from my phone to the line input, convert it, or something? :hmmm:

MPC Live reads mp3 files direct from disk, no problem.



The format is FAT32.
And I see once I've connected to the computer the WAV folder is empty and the samples have been moved to a Pioneer DJ Sampler folder.
Loaded the flash drive, and the WAV's that had been moved work accordingly. Now loading MP3's for a trial run. :worthy:
Works awesome.

Maybe the files “moved” and not copied. Do some experimenting to see how things act when you do certian things.
