Over the last few months, this mpc 1000 I have has slowly driven me crazy...Whenever I leave it on for over an hour or two, it will suddenly start spitting static and random samples from the internal sound bank!

I even had my mpc replaced with a brand new one and it still does the same thing! and changed the OS to the new one from JJ! SAME FREAKY BIDNESS!

Anyone else have a posessed MPC 1000?

seen one do that before when i was at a music store.

it would play random samples and a random sequence of highhats every 5 minutes or so. it was fried....just like how yours probalbly is.

return yours again if you can. its not supposed to do that...ever!

the fact that it happened to a fairly new mpc, and it happend to your other mpc, It might be the electric supply. read the faq on this page:

if that doesn't work , take it to a priest.

hold on so u mean to tell me this is an electrical problem.. i get weird static sounds and sounds playing from all banks i have... and this happens when i use loop feature or use decay in the velocity area in the program.. if i give it an attack to high it does this effect and if i decay to high it does this effect if i loops to tight it does this effect.. i didnt knowq my mpc1000 was busted i thought this was only a bug.. well that **** sucks cause my warranty ran out
