What The ****

By abc Fri Jun 07, 2013 12:40 am
Ok so I went into step edit to erase all my main samples in a loop I made so I could have a sequence where I could build the drums up a little. All my main samples are in pad bank a and all my drum chops are in pad bank d. Anyway I'm in step edit listening to the sequence and on the screen it is only showing that the a bank pads were recorded, but the audio is as it should be with the drums right on q. I hit main and go down stairs for literally 2 minutes come back hit step edit and it is only showing me the d bank pads written on the screen, except now it's triggering the a bank ones wrong after the sequence loops starts on the second loop. What the ****?

I poured a glass off milk in the air slots and it did the trick.

Joking about the milk, but my 25 really does have a lot of problems that make zero sense. For that one I just said **** it and started over but it still does it sometimes.

Open it, unseat every cable you see, make sure connections are clean, make sure you document what screws and cable go where. Clean and dust out the entire inside. Place everything back to where it's supposed to go, try again with making music.

Yup. :nod:

And use Mike @MPCStuff's ice cube tray method for the screws, they say genius is doing the obvious yet somehow no one thought to do it before...

I've used egg crates and styrofoam liquor cups before. Screws do everything in their power to **** up your life, those lil bastards.

Maintaining a longterm relationship with an mpc is so much easier than maintaining a longterm relationship with a female.
Allthough they both have there hickups and wtf's every now and then.

Lemme rephrase..


Open her up, unseat every normal thought and get nasty, make sure connections are clean, make sure you screw everywhere. Dig out the entire inside. Place everything back to where it's supposed to go, tell that **** to go make you a sammich.
