i been having a little problem with loading samples/ sounds onto my mpc and hopefully yall can be of a some assistance.

i got some drum sounds/ samples that im trying to load onto my mpc from my cpu. let me run down to you what i do, and please let me know if im doing something wrong cuz i cant figure this out.

first i go to an unused sequence. i set my bpm, go to track 1, type=drum, pgm=off, and the midi is off. then i go to mode>load>usb. i go on my computer and drag the sounds/ samples i want into the mpc.

i go back to my load screen. it says
LOAD FROM: MEMORY CARD
: ROOT
FILE: (I CHOOSE THE SAMPLE I WANT)

then i assign the sample to the pad that i want. here's where i run into a problem. i'll make a loop using the sounds/ samples that i just assigned on track 1. then, for example, i would like to add some piano over it. so i'll go to TRACK 2, SELECT MIDI, THEN MIDI 1A and i start playing some piano from my sound module. the problem is, the sounds that i assigned the pads are still being triggered when im trying to pay some piano over them so the loops gets all messed up. get it??
i been desparetely trying to figure this thing out since i got it but im getting no where. i been told that my mpc is messed up but i dont think thats the case. PLEASE HELP ME OUT!!!
thanks in advance and god bless.

try this :

on your track 1 : load your sample into a program ( not to off)

on track2 : switch to midi, put program off. should be correct

i tried to load a sample into a program, but it plays the sound in the program and the sample. is there a way to create my own program??

yea you gotta have an new program other wise you still gonna be triggerin the sounds from that program, like lets say pad 1-kick pad 2-snare pad 3-hit hats, if you create a new program you have all 64 pads empty, and make sure you aint doing it on the same track either
