Reviews and questions about the entry-level MPC500
By luke81 Fri Apr 10, 2009 3:41 pm
When I am in record mode listening to an input signal i get an error message after about 5 minutes. After this message appears mpc500 is frozen.

This is the message I get:

Inv. gen. Inst.
PC(8837b30a)

Does anyone know what this means? HELP!!!
