Nothing serious, but i want to share some troubles in case there is something that i should know.

1.When i push a bit more the cf card, screen is going crazy showing some numbers, but sound can be played!

2.The bpm is different in mpc and daw (many daw's tested).

3.When i put the rec lvl to high a strange noise appears.

4.When i chop a sample always the last part is smaller, that makes the loop not cycle well, cause there is an audio gab. For example if i chop a drum at 90 bpms (according to mpc), and play it chopped, only the last part seems smaller (without any end margin).

Thanks for reading...

The BPM will be different, unless they are synced using MIDI Beat Clock (MIDI Clock).

How do you have them synced when testing it?

Or are you testing it with them not synced and both set to the same tempo, then comparing a recorded section from the MPC inside the DAW?

Is the loop you are chopping already at exactly 90 bpm, before you chop it?
