Hey. I have just bought my shiny MPC Live II and I am trying to work my way through the user guide and all of the other resouces I've found. The problem I have experienced sounds like some kind of a rookie mistake, and maybe anyone knows what I do wrong.

So basically, when I start MPC 2.8.1 app on my Win10 PC and connect my MPC (2.8.1 firmware) via USB, it is recognised properly, but when going into the samples assigning, the browser is not showing me any of the samples that are there when the MPC unit is in standalone mode. In the user guide, there is a mention about the "Internal" storage, but I think what it means is the additional drive, not the samples that are "built-in".

My question is, is this a bug or should I do something to access those samples? Or maybe indeed this is an expected behaviour, as the samples should lay on my PC's hard drive to be used?

Best regards!
