Hello!

Can anybody explain, where are the expansion sticks are in the machine? What letters or numbers or on it?

or maybe if you know where i can find a picture of a inside with installed expension?

I´m a new (lucky) owner of a MPC 60 I with OS 3.02 .
I bought at Ebay. The seller told me, the machine was full memory expanded and got 26.2 sec sampling-time.

But if I try to sample some sounds, I just can record 13,1 sec. For example: 2x 4,5 sec and 1 x 4 sec. After that the screen told me " no more memory available".

Where can see how much memory are installed on my MPC 60?

Thanx

Sounds like you don't have the memory expansion board, but if you want to check:

First pic. Just a bit right of the bottom left-hand corner. The card is a slightly different shade of green. It has six ICs in a row and a gold screw on its lower right-hand corner. If you have the expansion, this card should be plugged into a white socket on the board.
If you see a bunch of non-professional soldering in that area, it's possible that someone installed the memory hack.
Here's a link to a thread on that topic:

Good luck.
