Exchange tips and tricks for the Akai MPC4000

Hi
Can anyone help, I'm new to mpc4000.  I have borrowed my mates unit while he touring austrailia for 6 months.  I'm trying to get started.  There are no programs loaded on the hard disk so I can't assign any sounds to the pads. Were there any default programs that came with the unit that I could possibly get hold off.  And is this all I need to do.

regards

Assigning sounds is straight forward enough. Load some samples, create a program and use "assign" to put samples to pads. Make sure that the track you are using is a drum grid and that it is using the part that is linked to the program with your samples on.

Better still get the manual off yer mate, its all in there (or get a Pdf copy off the Akaipro website).....[/color]
