I see no need for this one, dude. After loading or saving, just pause from action how long you want, and you've got the same effect. :idea:

I like to see [AUTO NORMALIZE] feature added to the recording sample section of the mpc5k. This feature is on the mpc4k. It will save a lot of time if I didn't have to normalize each samples in the sample edit section.

i just have my mpc 5000 for a few days..
so what would be cool will be a template mode or remote for controlling other midi devices or vsti?
that would be cool to control a mopho and the change the template and control a pro 53...

sorry, but just wanting a well advertised feature "double sized" is somewhat beside the point for a serious whish list.

it is not... the mpc 5000 has 8 analog outs and 8 adat outs where is the problem to route on each out a different channel...

it is like buying a soundcard with 16ins but only 8 can be for recording @ once...

Sorry if you've read this twice - wanted to post it in the right place! :) few suggestions on bugs/annoyances and improvements on OS2

1. Sometimes in TRIM mode sample gets confused as to whether its stereo or not.. the first is stereo - convert to mono.. goto next sample - that appears to be stereo but the convert to mono function doesnt work - goto another sample and then go back and now its mono - this is an annoying bug

2. On sample in TRIM mode - goto PROGRAM to check free location goto TRIM mode to assign and it goes back to start of sample list... Should go to last sample used so you can quickly use SHIFT+PAD to allocate

3. Goto load new folder from DVD - clear all memory first - Crashes occasionally.. Maybe im pressing the buttons too fast but needs loking into

4.When assigning sample with SHIFT+PAD from TRIM mode plays entire sample if program is ONE-SHOT - very annoying especially on large samples - should just play when pad is held.

5. When copying names in rename file extension shouldnt be included.. Really annoying when trying to retrieve .ALL file name when first overwriting in a session you get 'filename.all.all' - have to delete the extension every time.

6. Env Release timing fades out too quickly at end - too abrupt sometime i like a loong smooth fade on looped samples and to get it i have to use the mixer section because the envelope slopes off way to quickly at the end.

Most of these seem simple to include in a future update
Still love the MPC though
