HELP ON SAVING SONGS

I started of on fruity loops now i am basically a new member of the mpc community i know all the basic fuctions but im having trouble saving songs whenever i make a beat then save it to the flash card and play it on my computer the drums play but no sample what am i doing wrong???

What exactly are you saving, how are you playing that back in your computer?

Are you playing back the sequence in your computer, or are you recording the MPC output back into the MPC, and then playing that sample back on your computer?

A little more info is needed to try to help you.

i save the sequence the sample and compose the song then saved it to the flash card then plug the flashcard into my computer then open it thru windows media and the drums play but the sample that i recorded on it doesnt play

Well, I wouldn't expect Windows Media Player to recognize an MPC500 sequence and program.

You might be able to save the sequence as a MIDI file, and then load that into something to play it, but that would also need a software sampler to play the sample, and you would have to set that up. From the MPC500 manual though, it seems that it does not allow the saving of a sequence as a MIDI file.

If you want to play it back in Windows Media Player, record the MPC500 main output back into the MPC500, as the sequence is playing, then save that new sample, and load that into Windows Media Player.

I don't think you can play the MPC500 sequences/songs/programs/etc. on a computer.
