Ok so do they come as program files or just a bunch of samples...Meaning, can I just load a drum set up if I purchase these sounds off of this site. Or do I have to pick the sounds I like and make a drum set out of it...I want to just put these sounds in my MPC and make a beat with it by just pressin rec and doin the beat with the pads...That would be the easiest way for me to start usin this thing...

you wont ever be able to do that... the files come with programs but their individual ones for snare.pgm kick.pgm and hat. quit being lazy!

i was just saying your not going to find drum programs anywhere, your gunna have to buy samples and make your own, its really not as hard as it sounds. if you have the ram up grade you can make many programs when in a matter of minutes...and the sample pack i bought the producers 1 and 2 are pretty dope. some stuff is unusable but most of its really good stuff!

Thanks thats all I was askin...I do have the ram upgrade so I guess If I just go buy the Dirty South drum package ill just have to figure this thing out by messin around...The only thing I didnt get is if you buy a package directly from this site I just thought it would already be set to the pads if ya loaded it into the MPC...Now I know that you need to pick what ya like and put it onto the pad you want...When ya been messin with Rolands for 7 years ya kinda get into their groove on how to do things and movin to something new is definately a change...Ill adjust....So the producer 1 and 2 are good ya say...I just might have to check them out...
