Is it just me or this way off ?. i load samples i knew the BPM (i have the BPM in the sample name) and it was way off ?. I loaded 8 samples and most of the time the MPC said 145BPM almost everytime ?. I tried setting the bars correct to match the sample and still no luck.

Yeah it's not too accurate. It seems a lot of the time it doubles the tempo too. It hasn't given me a single reading under 100BPM yet

seems a bit unstable. is the 1k really capable of doing all these real time events stabeley(??)

i also noticed that the time stretch and picth shift arent worth 2 cents. the audio deteriorates very easly ,i can pitch and timestrecth a sample double maybe even triplle what ive done on the 1k in adobe audition before the audio gets fuucked up. thanks a lot akai, you flowers us again

Have you tried all the presets at best quality(C)? (that's 16 for time strtch and 18 for the pitch shift)
