Hey guys,

THis seems obvious, but I can't figure this out. I loaded up a break from a sample cd - track was called "Track 16 1". so i chopped it up into 16 slices, trimmed em up, made a beat.

MPC saved each hit by adding a number to the sample...so for example A kick from that break would be "Track 16 1-6" because it was the 6th hit in the break that I chopped. A snare was saved as "Track 16 1-3". They were all named successively in the order that they were chopped from that break.

Obviously I want to rename the samples, problem is I can't figure out how - this sounds retarded i know.

go to the trim screen. hit window. the sample list pops up and there is a rename option

Another good way is to rename your sample before chopping so then it would do it as ex: samplename 1-1, samplename 1-2, etc.
