ok after some trial and error i figured out how to successfully transfer files from my mac to my mpc 60 . For any mpc 60/60II newbies like myself here's the breakdown for what your gonna need.
1 iomega 100 or 250 zip drive
1 iomega 100 or 250 zip drive note: I used the 250
S'sworks RS 16X/ MPC PGM MAKER for mac or MPC Editor for PC
1.)ok first format format a zip disk in your mpc 60 once done take it out and put it into your usb zip drive you'll see a folder pop up click the folder you sell your zip disk in come up dont freak out if you only see that is says you only have 25mb of disk space its because the software was made for the 3000 so what im showing you is a work around to get it to work on your 60/60II .
2.)next open either mpc pgm maker or rs 16x . note if you buy rs 16x you can use the same serial number for mpc pgm maker so thats what i did . ok in the top screen of pgm maker you'll see a harddrive icon click it and you'll see a list of the content of your drive click the file with your drums .
3.) now at the top right of the screen youll see were it says format you can choose between mpc 3000 or 2000 pick 3000 once you do that in the top right corner of the screen you see a lil box that say snd click it and you can choose snd ,wav, n/c . pick sound .
4.) now go to over to the file were your drums are and drag and drop your wav format drum onto the pads . once done click the make pgm button just above the top of your pad layout . name your files it will ask were you want to save i save my to desktop . ok now drag that file into the main folder over to your usb zip drive once it shows file has been transferred .
5.) drag zip file icon to trash can it will eject the zip disk.
6.) now load zip disk into your zip drive you have connected to mpc 60/60II press disk option on your mpc and select option 7 it will show contents on your disk now you can load up each of your sounds .
7.) Note the zip disk you used that said it only had 25mb will be your transfer disk . thats the disk you use to move sounds from your mac to your mpc 60. use a second disk that has been partitioned in a,b,c,d as your main sound disk for your mpc that will allow you to save 100mb broken up into four partitions.
Now go bang out some heat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
