Please help - Big problems with my MPC1000

Hey guys. I'm new to sampling and MPC's but i've been really enjoying getting to grips with it. I have a big problem, and I'm worried it's an actual fault with my MPC.

I've chopped up a sample that i've recorded to sequence in four bars. I've then attempted to add the drums to another track but when i hit the the drum samples the original samples cut out. The MPC won't let me play the samples over each other. As you can imagine, i't's very frustrating and stops me from being able to do anything.

Please help, guys.

Thanks!

Is this your first attempt to do this or has it always workrd . and just started doin that

I'm pretty sure it's always done that. At first i thought i was just doing something wrong, but i really don't see how i could be.

Did u check your mute groups, pads to mute settings? Try doing a full initliaze and start over.

when you sample, chop and save a new program the os will make the program as "mono", which means that only one sample from that program play at a time.

So what you need to do, is to go the program menu and switch it to "poly".

If youve never gotten it to work it might be you .....not trying to hate im just sayin you might be doing it wrong
