Hi everyone!
I finally decided to add an MPC to my setup and found a decent used unit on ebay. Pad sensor was mentioned as likely the only issue but of course, I don't think that's the case.
The unit is using JJOS128XL v 1.28 with 128 mb RAM installed, no CF card (ordered a 16gb).
Everything turns on fine, but the only audio I can get is low/distorted from the record in. Can't hear metronome. This for stereo out & phones. Volume & record knobs don't work. I get a weird duckish chorus of sounds when the system starts and a constant high pitched whir which I assume are the HDD.
Pads aren't responding, but give a high pitch beep when held (loudness affected by velocity).
Restarting holding ERASE has no effect, and restarting holding WINDOW tells me to insert a memory card. HDD isn't recognized by USB.
I'd really appreciate it if anyone could point me in the right direction before throwing money at new gear/service. I just can't seem to find any info on these issues online. Thank you!
