HELP! My effects load up without my permission

Every time I load up a new program the effects settings are on automatically. In my case the reverb and compressor is on. Even when I resave the program with these effects turned off or set to zero, they still load up again after a turn the machine off and on. I've tried everything to fix the problem. The manual hasn't helped at all. Any suggestions? Thanks a lot.

Is this thing on?

Okay, I'll try. Maybe it's because I have autoload on? Could this be it? Any thoughts?

Very helpful site I must say.

Olay. I guess I'll just record everything with reverb.

Dude, we don't even know what MPC model you have!
(Ask your garage for an oil filter but don't say what car you have, see what happens?)

If it's the MPC1000, then:
- the FX are on by default, true, but;
- signal only goes to the FX if you set the FX Send level in the Mixer page for that Program. (It works like a mixer channel FX send knob). Once you have that right, save the Program(s), that's where the FX Send settings are kept for next time.
- the FX's own settings (everything but FX Send level) are coming from the Sequence&Song (.ALL) files in Autoload, you're right about that, so turn Autoload off too, if you don't want that.

Thanks man. I was just screwing around with my multiple posts. Next time I'll try to be more specific.
