so i got my 1000 today and the two things i cant figure out are

1) how to change the behavior for when you strike the pads, like whether or not you have to hold the pad down to hear the beginning of the sample or the whole thing and vica versa. right now when i strike the pad the whole sample plays even when i take my finger off and i can hit it 30 times and it will just echo over itself 30 times. i want to have so when i take the pressure off, the sample stops.

2) how to delete the programs and sounds that came with the machine. right now everytime i turn it on i got programs called CD5 and DJ_HIP_SET and other lame names. i at least wanna get it to the point where its not the default sounds that always come up and maybe even to the point where i get rid of them all together but i dont know how. would i be deleting programs or sequences to do this?

like i said, ive been using it for about 4 hours now and these are the two things that have been frustrating me. just figured id try and get some help before i call it a night

and dont be a douche and put a link for the search function, ive used the search and couldnt find what i was looking for.

Download pdf manual from Akaipro site.
- to find the answer to your first question, search the manual for "one shot" and "note on"
- for the 2nd question, search for "autoload"

... and while you're at it, study the whole manual.

The manual is very clear on the subject.

I already told you how you can find the relevant information yourself. Now go find it and study it. I'm sorry, can't really help you any better than that.
