Anyone else had a problem with midi notes vanishing from seq edit?
You can still hear em obviously but cant see them on the grid even if you recorded with TC.
I get this almost every time i save something then come back to it the next day.
whats even weirder is that the notes can be seen on some tracks but not others.

Never had that problem. If I were you it would be time to take it to your local repair shop.

Simple question do you have the edit window set to notes or something else?

yea it is set to notes.

step edit does work but i prefer to use the grid mostly.

this mpc has given me nothing but bullshit (maybe you've seen my past posts, all dealing with this 1 tonne sh1t brick).

I'm gonna get rid of the 4k and pick up a 2500, people all say the 4k is where its at and i agree with them but they're not taking into account it's almost a decade old so at this point the technology is bound to cause problems like this.
I dunno how it is in america or europe but in australia you do not want to have to get repairs on your mpc because the people i've talked to have no idea.
