Hi,

Brand new MPC user here, running into a frustrating issue on the MPC Live. After loading one of the factory drum kits and laying down some beats, the sample assign page will only let me reassign samples to one of the pads (it's a different pad each time - sometimes A04. sometimes A07). What happens is that I'll go to the sample assign page, select a pad, and scroll through the samples - but no matter which pad I selected, the sample will reassign to pad A04 (or whichever individual pad the Live has decided to restrict my sample assign to).

Am I doing something wrong? Why is this happening? It kind of cripples the functionality. Any help would be greatly appreciated - thanks so much!
