Nope.

Have you tried using BluBox? I have had no problems with that but I haven't got a copy of mpc editor, so try BB instead.

When you save in MPC editor does it save the Progs as *.PGM file types? Cause thats what u r aiming 4.

And of course u have to whack the USB cable between the PC / MPC and copy the files across right?

Yes.

Yes, saves all the progs as .PGM
I get the "wrong file" msg. when I try to load them up.

Others that I create on the MPC work fine.
bluebox or MPC editor v3. not working.

I used to make other PGMs when I had the 1000 with no probs.

Are you guys saving to the hard drive, or memory card?
...thinkin it could be my hard drive..
I'm saving it in Bluebox to my harddrive (10gb)
It shows up when I re-open Bluebox, and all wavs play.
I save and close the program, disconnect the USB (unmount first)
and hit main on the 2500.
When I go to load the program from the harddrive, it gives me the
"wrong file" message.

I go and load up MPC Editor V3, and it does not even recognize any of the PGM files at all....even the factory ones.
shit's crazy///...dunno.

I used to have this"WRONG FILE" error prob on the 1st OS when saving to my harddrive. It kept losing files en all. I think its like a corrupted file on windoze.... I think i think.

Have you reformatted ur hardrive once you upgraded to the latest OS?

Could be it u.

...figured it out.
dablunt, good lookin out.
I figured it out b4 I read the post, but that was it....Re-formatted the drive and everything is working fine now.

Does this have to be done with every update release?

In any case, good lookin out on all the replys folks..
