yepp,...

This happened to me about a dozen times. After a while you can feel it coming and sometimes be able to prevent it.

1. Try not to overheat the MPC. AC is its best friend.
2. Don't hammer the Pads like a crazy mofo all the time (sometimes its just too much for them babies)
3. Check your Memory. If you have extra sticks try switching them.
4. Last thing I noticed: Switching screens like program trim and the note variation real fast can cause disasters like this.

Funny thing you post this today, I made a beat at a friends place last night and just when I had it the way I wanted it (as it always is....) that thing went error:FF00a2344AAF on my ass..

If anyone knows more about this, or how you can completely get rid of this please holla!

My next MPC is definately NOT a 2k xl :roll:

Finally got an Answer to this problem...

This Ish! happens when you have done MAJOR changes to your sequences
and sound envelope's, without saving.
The crashing will appear when you "Stress" your MPC by playing your Song, with allot of Sequences
and samples that you just changed.

I You do not save! The MPC must keep/save them changes in its memory.... And will sometimes crash.
I also think that this problem has something to do with the quality
of the Memory chips, but thats just my opinion.

Its not a bad thing thoo, to save your worx more often :wink:
