If you haven't done so already (I didn't read the thread completely yet), please list the version of Pro Tools you are using, Pro Tools audio/midi interface, and platform (PC or Mac). Thanks. If this is a serious issue, we need to get it to Akai so they can address it.
I can give yall Ten thousand ways and methods of syncing an MPC 4000, 1000, 2000XL, and 2000 Classic, with several different interfaces, and platforms, that are being used amongst cats at different studios... you have the same results, even with Cubase from another user.
the fact remains the same, its not syncing, by the way, these are the basic ways of connection as far as Pro Tools, which i have been using since OS 1.02 in the MPC 5000 along with the other few people i know thats got MPC 5000's around the country to studios i have actually been at and am about to go to this week
this is an issue with Pro Tools Mac and PC.... Le, HD, and M-Powered.... 6.4, 7.4, and 8.... using all in various ways and interfaces

By the way, all the other MPC's are still sycning perfectly with them, even some roland drum machines(to further the test results)
4dahaterz, thanks for the info.
Now explain the issue to me as if I was a 3 year old (one of my favorite Denzel Washington movie quotes)....what exactly are you trying to do when you sync Pro Tools (or any DAW) with your MPC? Can you provide a detailed step by step to your method of production?
