I noticed when I solo a track and use the TR-/+ only the current track is solo'd. The track I intended to solo plays when I scroll through tracks with the TR keys.

Yep it sure does. In fact it is not really a bug at all it is how SOLO works. And this is kinda a good setup when you want to work on one out of 16 or more tracks.

If you want to solo a track and still change tracks with out changing the solo'ed track, then simply use the mute screen. This will allow you to solo a track and then hit unsolo it so it is the only one unmuted.

You need to get that mute is different from solo in a way. Solo is just the track selected, and you are selecting active track when you change tracks up and down, hence solo will solo that active track. Cos that is what solo does. So use mutes in mute screen. like I said above. Just use solo there, and unsolo it for the behaviour you want.

Yeah, just got a reply from JJ that it's how solo works, even with Akai's OS. I just didn't remember this. Been a while since I used the MPC, thought it was a bug.

I just updated to 3.25 (XL) which was also why I thought it was a bug. I'm using the MPC 1000. The big screen is nice, maybe someday :wink:

Snap
same here. Check out the pattern feature and pattern to pad, also the chord bank will need filling up with fancy chords. I redid my chord bank in last couple of days myself and can not live with out it.
This is what I did today with just MPC100 and a few synths to 4 track. No computer, or DAW or anything.

Nice work :nod: I barely scratched the surface of the OS, but I know it's powerful and flexible.
