im using acid music studio 7.0 to chop samples for my MPC 1000. I've done a few things already, but today i was trying to chop some curtis mayfield stuff up and change the BPMs and had a problem.
i cut it right and had the BPMs right and everything, then when I transferred to the MPC it was not only the same BPMs as the original song(not what i changed it to) and there was 2 copies of one sample instead of the 2 i dragged and dropped. Any help would be appreciated!

1.
44khz/16bit pcm wav is the format your samples should be after you slice them up in Acid.

2.
Maybe you dragged and dropped the wrong stuff or extra stuff.

In acid somewhere, u need to get to know your programs, lol.

with the sample higlighted in acid, right on it, properties maybe. I'm guessing.
I haven't used that program in many many years.

Or maybe when you SAVE AS, u can choose the format that your saving can't you.

im not sure, i am very new to this. just started messin around about 2 months ago. i changed it to 44kHz and 16 bit and tried dragging it once again. nothing changed
i can transfer the samples fine without changing the bpm, but i would like to be able to transfer the sample that i sped up. im sure there is a way to do this.. any help for this beginner is welcomed!

Go to "File" and choose "export" and export an acid .zip file this will contain all the samples in your project at their new tempos +whatever edits you may have performed, you can then unzip that file and transfer the contents to your MPC

It keeps the adjusted everything.

You could have tried this and found your answer, get to experimenting.

Yeah it keeps everything tempo, eq, filters etc... Make sure to crank the volume of the sample up tho, rendering tends to drop the volume of the sample for some reason
