ok. here we are sitting at the studio at a loss. after fully producing an album with the mpc 1k (without) using midi. now we are doing a song i need to have midi working in order to track it. the problem is we never figured out how to have the mpc1k sequence START playing when we hit the PLAY button on our aw4416 yamaha recorder. the yamaha is configured correct and is sending the midi out to the mpc 1k. however for some reason the 1k will not start. WHERE do we go to setup up the 1k to recieve the midi trigger? i dont want the mpc1k to be the master i want it to be the slave.
when connecting the mpc 2k (original) to the yamaha via midi it all works fine. we go to the midi screen on the 2k set the time code to 25 and it works.
where do we go on the 1k to do this?
YES we have read the manual and searched all the forums we can find. is there anyone here that use midi if so how/where do you config the 1k to act as a slave and start playing on que?
thanks
PS
here is another issue/concern
when playing the sequence back on the 1k for an extended amount of time (say 15 mins) the sequence continues to play but the sounds in the sequence will stop playing until the time on the seq starts from loop point. i hope im explaining this clearly. for example say i have sounds playing on track 1-4 on a 2 bar sequence. after letting this 2 bar seq play for a while the sounds will stop playing from bar1-2 then continue afterwards. what causes this break/pause in the sequence? if anyone has any idea please reply back asap! thanks much!!
