You need a zip drive----an external scsi one or internal ide one for your MPC and a usb or whatever one for your pc or mac.....you can nnot burn cd's witht he mpc.....it will not work....a cd drive hooked up to the mpc will only read cd's-not burn them......

Chill for now. You don't need more gear for at least another year

You can put sounds on the zip with your pc and load them in your mpc. If your getting sick of assigning each sample to a pad you head over to :
