Hello.

I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced the following glitch on the 2500?
I'm running JJOS xl145.

I had quite a lot of samples in the machine, but it definitely wasn't full.
After connecting an external effects machine, and turning on the digital input thru,
the machine suddenly changed the pitch on all my samples permanently.
I have no idea if the input thru function can have anything to do with this?!

Please write if you have had the same experience or have anything clever to say:)

check its sample rate. it's gotta be 44.1 khz, 16 bit. odds are you got it runnin at 44.8 khz. this will cause the MPC to pitch up all wacky til you reboot.

Thanks a lot man. It was running 48 kHz..
I changed that now, so this won't happen again.
Very helpful!
