Hi,

To make it all clear!!!

No pads in MONO mode,
No SUB GROUPs
No MUTE Targets

Problem occures when I add another track to previous 11
Then something weird happends and it looks like that

Construction: couple short percussion samples and all the rest is 4bar loops of instruments (recorded from synth)

When I add a 12th track or rather, when I record it to the sequencer using recorded sample it starts to trim other tracks randomly

Hardware MPC2500SE

Any ideas?

Heh, I acctually found the reason why after my post and I'm VERY supprised.. and dissapointed with it

I found that since I've used decay setting on one of the samples set to 45 problem occures but than setting changet to 25 solves it. Samples plays as they should.
And now you may be right about that voices cus that decay changed sample is played many times (repeated choped guitar) what may cause many overlapping voices

SHAME ON YOU AKAI... Fruity loops can do that and such a class peace of hardware can't...

32 voices is 32 voices no matter how you cut it...for once this problem is not akai's. it's just the way it is.
