you're doing it wrong. the right way to do it is in the manual.

just because all the pads trigger the sound while you're in trim mode or whatever other screen you're in that isn't the program screen, doesn't mean the sample is actually assigned too all pads.

just read the manual... all of it.

Don't try and learn the machine from youtube videos. Everything you need is in the manual.

What OS is the machine running?

I think that's the free version, so the standard manual still applies.

Alternatively - and if you're serious about learning the machine - you could buy the ebook from this very site. 8)

that version is just fine.. get to know it and the machine properly and then you can check out the other JJOS versions. Also "beat making on mpc"-books are the best. All your questions (even those you don't know to ask yet) are covered!
