It wont play when i press the play button

When i press the play button this message appears

mmc 'play' command sent.

but the mpc don't play even after loading up a disk.



any ideas what is going on and how to resolve this!

thanks, alex!

you have to turn MMC off. you can do that quickly by hold stop and press play on the main menu. the long way is to go to midi, then go to mmc control and turn it off.

thats done the trick, thanks!!!

just out of interest what is the function of it anyway

alex

midi machine control : search google/here

its for controling other synths or protools. you would have 2 midi cords back and forth, when the 3000 tells protools to play at the same time protools will tell the mpc to play, so they are in sync.

o cool i'll have a read into it. thanks for the help, was having palpatations when it wasnt playing, but is sorted now.

ta very much,
may the beats be with you!

Al!

I know the others have answered this already ...

However ...

A quick topic search on "MMC" in the MPC60/3000 forum brings up a single answer.

The thread also contains a continuation of the theme by talking more about MMC and its uses.

Don't be a afraid to use the search tool.
