help please, I have tracks and I need to burn them, my computer has a burner but I want to know if the program software for the AKAI in conjunction w/ my computer can allow it to burn to cd too, or can I save a song/sequence as an mp3?

yo if u can play your sequence properly without pressing any buttons:
In the main page press the {window} key whilst the cursor is over the mute field.
Click the use track mutes in sequence or something like that..
THEN
goto the record page and set the source to MAIN OUT.
This will sample anything thats coming out of the 4k's main outputs.
This will give you one single sample/wav file which you can edit, export and burn to cd.

Hope this helps

P.s. this will only work with long sequences and track mutes, it wont work is your using 4 bar loops cos you cant do the mutes live while sampling.
