First, see if you can use a language conversion program.

Second, maybe check the pad routing. It could be that your pads are routed to the midi out rather than the sequencer or sampler (hit your "midi" button to see this feature).

Sorry again for mistakes.
But I am not talking about pads,but about all system.
Even I can't hear metronome.
I think that no nlain of pads but something other.
Any ideas?
I can't record sounds to my computer to.
Thanks in advance

My apology. This is the hardest thing for someone to figure out since we can't physically see how things are set up.

Was there anything you were doing before this happened? You also state that everything was good (I'll use "then" instead of "but" in this case) then you turned on your mpc and can't hear anything.

:?

And since you mentioned you opened the case, there's the possibility that something else could have been induced during the process.

Do you load your samples after power up or are they set to autoload when powered on?

Your best bet would be to first see if you can hear anything from your headphone jack after you go through the normal process of loading sounds before you conclude that you def can't hear anything.

Ok.
So,last time I was recording samples from my turnable and everything all right.
After 4-5 hours when I turned on MPC I'm trying to audition samples but i can't hear it,so I turned off and changed jack and hooked up a headphones and nothing.
I try to REC+PLAY,but i can't hear metronome,so I don't know what to do.
When i opened case all was good,but I tried press again cables.
I'm sure that problem was before open case and I don't spoil it(and I open case earlier to change RAM and for clean machine).
I always wait to autoload.
I reaistalled OS but it don't help.
Or is it a blown fuse?
