Hidden Feature: SCREENSHOT

Yesterday I contacted JJ because I wanted to know if they got a template or something for their new screenshots in bitmap format, so I can incorporate it in the manual to make it more offiical-looking. I received an answer and they told me, that they implemented a hidden feature to make screenshots of the display which will be stored on the Memory Card:

1. Goto [MIDI] page.
2. Press F6.
3. Press TAP TEMPO.
4. Press BANK C.
5. Press BANK A.
6. Press BANK D.
7. Press BANK B.

A screen copy function becomes effective now.

Press [UNDO　SEQ] to make a screenshot.

>> All I can say is: As it looks right now the next release of the manualy is gonna be f***in awesome!

WORD::: have nice weekend with a smile on your face

DOPE!

I'm glad i bought a 1k insted of a 2kXL

Have you actually tried this? If so what screen does it capture exactly?

Only works with pong high score screen

Have you actually tried this? If so what screen does it capture exactly?

Yes I have and it works... you need Version 4.0 for this

Q: how does it Look?
A: Looks like a B&W photocopy of what you see on the display. I tried to upload some screens at flicker.com, but it doesn't work with bitmaps. You will realize that it works when you see the next relese of the manual. I AIN'T Bull***tin' ya'll

1. Goto [MIDI] page.
2. Press F6.
3. Press TAP TEMPO.
4. Press BANK C.
5. Press BANK A.
6. Press BANK D.
7. Press BANK B.

By loading another project file. This causes to reset the mpc to default settings

Can't wait for the manual! You should send it to JJ, I bet he'd host it on his site.

Nice... that's cool as hell... why are secret features so much fun?

dope as hell , now we can easily show jj nice redesigns of certain screens, I'm gonna get photoshop out and redo the track mute screen i think it can look a lot better as well as GRID could use a few small tweaks to make the most of the screen size. anyway this is how the screenshots looks if you haven't seen it before (unedited)
