How did you access your .json cache folders on the built-in Factory storage? Through your built-in MPC browser in standalone mode? :hmmm:


I would also like to know this, to see if it could help fix mine as well.

I have had excactly the same problems with my MPC Live which I bought used about 6 months ago (previous owner only used it a couple of times). I also feel like the problems escalated after installing the 2.10 update.

Ok, so I’ve had intermittent problems since buying my mpc x. It seemed as though it was randomly crashing with no apparent logic however I suddenly realised yesterday that it is nearly always when I’m playing a physical instrument or listening back to something I have already made. It occurred that it could perhaps be the screen power saver as I’ve had problems with industrial machinery in the past. I turned off the screen saver in preferences and have not had a crash since. Try this as a go to as power savers can cause a significant amount of issues with real time electronics. Will add anything else I find unusual as I go.

We can only choose screen dimming and brightness in the MPC Live and One options. Same on Force. Or is that what you mean? The display dimming function?

So any way of doing this?

All these fixes and no follow up! Damn it!
