Bug
Load a keygroup program
Now go to keygroup select menu and choose ALL
Choose a program parameter for example change filter type only changes on one keygrp i.e. the ALL selection doesn't work.

Return to keygrp menu select a single keygrp
Then select keygrp ALL
Now it works

I can repeat this bug nine times out of ten.

I don't see this issue on OSX 10.7.5

1. Create a Keygroup Program on Track 1
2. Load a 'kik drum.wav' sample
3. Enter Program Edit Mode
4. Change NO. KG from 1 to 5
5. Set KG Select to ALL
6. Insert 'kik drum.wav' in Sample Layer 1
7. Set SEMI Tuning for Sample Layer 1 to 20
8. Insert 'Model 2' filter; set CUTOFF to 100
9. Set KG SELECT to any KG from 1 to 5 and verify settings

Results - All the KGs have 'kik drum.wav' in Sample Layer 1; SEMI Tuning is 20, Model 2 is the Filter, and CUTOFF is 100.

It performs as I expect.

Next bug in keygroup sampling.

Go to the LFO mod page.

Qlinks have the wrong display names when adjusting parameters.

E.g. Qlink three is the LFOMOD when adjusting qlink 3 parameter display shows Q3:Sample Play =100

Wheel>LFO function doesn't seem to work. Checked my modwheel in Logic its working so not sure whats going on there.

LFO>PAN q-link does nothing, software knob works though.

Regarding the question about "Did you reboot after the software install?" Did anybody else see the "Launch MPC" option at the end of the install?

EDITED BY MPC-TUTOR: mark, this is a bug reporting topic which we want to keep 'on topic', so the comments about Jah are unnecessary. FYI, beta testers are not expected to run their installation on multiple platforms, that's the point of having multiple beta testers each with different computer configs. Anyway, please keep this on topic.

Don't know if this works for ATI cards but:

I played with the nVidia display tool a bit. First you put the Akai window on your second screen and than make it full screen. It will remain in the native resolution as your main screen (1600x900 for me).

Now start the nVidia tool and make your secondary display (the one that you have connected over the HDMI cable) your primary display.

This solves the problem... until you unplug the monitor again or restart the software.

Would love to have a proper fix for that or a more convenient workaround....

I'll start with a bug I found when adding a slice in Sample Editor.
If you open it, and add a slice, the slice marker appears right where you double clicked (on the arrow), until you move a slice manually. Afterward, added slices appear directly to the left of the arrow.

Same here !!! Doesn't load correct BPM's to older projects as well.... Also when I preview aiff samples it plays the same sample for every sample... #workinprogress

Hey,

I think i found a BUG.
When i Save my project which is at 88 BPM and load it again afterwards the Sequence says 88BPM but the MPC master track is running at 120 BPM (default)

Image

It occurs when i load my project from the desktop AND from inside 1.3 (load recent project).

Mitch.

I am not seeing this issue on OSX 10.7.5. Is there anyone else that has this issue?


Same problem here. I'm running Windows 8 64bit

Extreme values in Akai plugin knobs are difficult to get to, Hardware and Software. And in hardaware creates inconsistent values as oposed to the Software
Gonna try later at home with the studio to see if I get the same problem as with the Ren

This is happening with the studio too! But it does not happen with 3th party plugins, only with akai plugins.

Project Archive Bugs (Mac OSx Lion)

Issue 1:

Save a project as 'test-archive.xpj' to Desktop
File > EXPORT > as project archive
In pop up, the default location appears to be inside the project file itself (Desktop/test-archive.xpj') - if you hit save, it naturally won't save.

So you have to make sure you select a specific folder to save it to. IMO, the software should move you up to Desktop as the saving location in this example.

Issue 2:

Double click the XPA file and the currently loaded project is instantly deleted from active memory. If you change your mind about loading the XPA (i.e. hit CANCEL), it does not restore the previously active project.

Issue 3

After double clicking the XPA and hitting 'Cancel' in the 'select directory' pop up, I get the message 'There was an error loading this file....'.

Hardware 'Rename' Button

I know there's no 'naming' options in the hardware, but could not remember if this 'glitch' was present in 1.2 - when loading a sample (that already exists in the Project Information panel), the hardware has a 'Rename' button (F4). It doesn't do anything when you press it, so not sure why it's there.

Is anyone getting issues with MPC2000XL ALL files? If I load up the individual MID files, no obvious problems, but if I load an ALL file containing the same 4 bar sequence, only the first 1.5 bars of data are loaded.


All of my 2000xl files are loading up as programmed. With the obvious exception of the difference in amp envelopes, everything else is spot on.
