What's wrong with the manual?

If you can read and have patience you don't need lessons.

First all are you totally new to the MPC world. Like others have said read the manual and look up topics on the forum you need help with. Don't let the machine intimidate you. Post your questions on the forum and someone will try and help or tell you where to go.

I just got into this mpc shit a few weeks ago with a 4k, for the first week I just kept on trying to use the machine while trying to figure it out at the same time, and then started reading the manual when I wanted to do something specific, then I read the whole thing front to back. I can say I understand a lot of the functions and concepts just from reading the manual and information on the forums, it aint THAT hard.
