Hi,

A very simple trick to that is great to enhance your beats with. I think a lot of people know and use this trick but i thought let's post it here for new users.

Suppose you found this great sample and you've cut it up in a new program. Remain on the track with the assigned program and then go to [LOAD] sample. Now you can audition samples on your 4K HD while you play the program of your first sample on the pads.

I assure you it will give you a different take on your beats!

peace

Unfortunately you can't play your sequence (as in hit play), but you can still trigger your samples. I forget where it is right now, but you can also 'toggle' the pads to keep them looping while you're in Load. 8)

chopping samples non destructively while sequence is playing is only feature i wanted in mpc outside of your basic stuff...JJOS delievered. good to hear 4k owners can have somewhat similar experience
