the sample king video sucks. learn your mpc by trial and error. that's how i learned. i did'nt have a manual either. but it is easy. alot of things you can learn are on this site. go to the newbie section. ask questions. the group will help you. the xl is a little different from the classic but the same concept. you will develope you own tricks and secrets,but you have to practice. look at your manual,take your time. again, the group is here to help!

my problem lies in the sample chopping i can't get it to chop even on the trim screen

try this; when you sample, sample the piece you want and place each piece on different pads. when you are in the trim mode, hit one of the pads to hear the sound. now use the data digit wheel to trim the sample. look at the numbers at the end of the sample on the screen on the right hand side. use your judgement with this, take the digit wheel and roll the dial to adjust the sample or in lament terms trim. now when you get to the part you want cut, press cut, the screen will say discard , press do it.
that will help. use this method for all the samples on each pad that you want to chop. you may have to trim the numbers in the beginning of the sample to get where you want. trial and error. just practice.

i have a mpc 2000 clasic not xl is are'nt the funtions different on my 2000 than on the xl? like the chopping funtions?

yeah the function is different. i too have the classic.

just dowload the PDF manual for the MPC 2000 if you cant find it dowload the one for the 2000xl the machines are pretty similar.
