Technical questions for the MPC2000xl and the MPC2000

Happy New Year. I need help I load some samples onto the Mpc 2000xl and one thing bothers me. Some sounds can be selected between poly mono and note off. Why is it like this? I finish the kits on the PC with the 2xl program.

The other question is When I start a project and I don't like it. Do I have to turn off the Mpc or can I delete everything?

It's best to avoid turning it off and on again I think. I just delete the sequence, program, and then purge all samples.

Poly - the sample can play multiple times at the same time
Mono - the sample can only have one copy playing at a time... a second time will stop playing the previous sample
Note Off - the sample will play while you hold the pad or the sample ends... if you let go earlier then the sample will stop playing

So basically this is just all different behaviors for how you trigger and stop samples.
