Hey my fellow mpc users, I was wondering you guys can help me out. I have an mpc 1000 running on JJOS 3.08(pretty similar to Akai os 2). want to add another program but I am only allowed to select one called" program 1". I can use the wheel to change the program to "NO.1" but i cant assign any samples to it. Is there a way to just easily add a program similar to how tracks and sequenced work?

Is it the same as the Akai OS?...

Go into the Program Mode screen, select the Pgm: field and press the Window key, press [F3](New).

To create a new program, proceed as follows.

Note : the MPC1000 is set to load the preset program automatically when turned on. You can set the MPC1000 to start without loading preset program. For more information, see the “Setting the auto load function” on page 96.

01. Press the [MODE] key and then the [PAD 7] (PROGRAM).
When you press the [MODE] key, its LED will blink.
When you press the [PAD 7] with the [MODE] key’s LED blink, you can enter the PROGRAM mode.

02. Select the Pgm field and press the [WINDOW] key.
The Program window will be displayed.

03. Press the [F3] (NEW) key.
The New Program window will be displayed.

04. In the New name field, turn the DATA wheel.
The name window will be displayed.
Set the name for the new program and press the [F5] (ENTER) key. For more information about setting the name, see the “Setting names” section on page 10.

05. In the New Program window, press the [F5] (DO IT) key.
The new program will be created.
The new program is “empty”, which means it does not have any samples assigned. To play the program, you need to assign samples to the pads in the SAMPLE page of the PROGRAM mode.
