Post your views and questions about the Akai MPC2500

Hi,

I am trying to turn of the autoload function on my 2500. I do as it says in the manual (press window on the 'load from' section of the 'load' screen and then change 'autoload' to OFF)

However when i turn my MPC back on it still loads up old sampls etc, even though the autoload still says OFF.

Im not sure why this is....if i hook up the MPC to my laptop and open up the memory card there is a file inside called 'Autoload'...should i delete this (didnt want to just do it, incase it messes sumin up)?

Any advice much appreciated.

Cheers

If you leave a card in the slot while powering up, it loads what is in the Autoload folder if there is one, regardless of the Autoload setting (also in the manual...).

Where and what do you delete?

thanks stilo, i am now starting the mpc without the card, and then inserting it once it has started up. All sorted now. I put together some nice drums last night, very pleased.

I go: mode>pad 6>window>delete>all>do it.

I just delete all the bunk sounds that it autoloads so when i load up my samples I dont have a bunch of extra ish to sort through
