Is there any possibility to stop a pads one shot sample with another pad?
like i play a sample of 30seconds with pad 1 and after 10 seconds i hit pad 2 and pad 1 stops playing immediatly? i heard this is called truncating, but im not sure about this. hope u get my question...

You're welcome. Good job on reading the manual; some people swear that that's the worst way to learn your gear nowadays. BTW, welcome to the boards.

The manual is a one night stand :lol: After the first night whatever you don't remember should be rediscovered through touch and feel. :wink:

thanks for the welcome! english manual is good for me, cos its easier to learn when i read it in english.
i wish i could just go on and produce, but the government wellfare is on my ass(stressin me cos they say i earn money with ebay and want to take away my wellfare), thats why i can't concentrate good enough, cos i just got my mpc(sold my laptop, RME souncard and some other shit for it) and from the same day no more money to go diggin for breaks. ****, i need a job so bad... :cry:

@episode: I know its not the best to learn, cos its so static, but i learned enough in Reason, Cubase, Live and so on. i def prefer tutorials, but 40$ for a pdf tutorial from here is just too much for me(no offense, its just too expensive).

I wasn't suggesting the "MPC-Samples" .pdf, I was recommending the regular ass manual.
