mpc renaissance: problem after Chopping and converting into

hi, first off, it's really cool to have samples automatically assigned to a pad bank after chopping!

somehow there occurs a strange thing that drives me crazy:

here's what i do

1) open a sample in sample-edit
2) get into chopping mode, chop to: threshold 50
3) convert to: sliced samples, crop samples:on, create new program:on

so lets say i take one sample (sample A on pad1) from this newly created program and record it into track1 in the beginning of bar 2.

now if if i want to add another sound to the sequence, let's say sample B from pad5 to the sequence at the same position where we have sample A (at the beginning of bar 2) .....

...what happens is that sample B "takes the spot" and sample A gets "kicked out" of the sequence

note:
1) mpc update 1.4
2) sample A from pad1 and sample B from pad5 were recorded into different tracks
3) in "prog edit" both pads' "mute group" is turned off.

what's wrong?

please help!

i'm sure a lot of ppl have to deal with this problem....thx

So basically you want both sounds to play simultaneously? Have you set the Program Play to POLY?

hi,

yes, i want 2 or more samples play simoultaneously but each sample with different start/end time (i don't mean layering as explained in "sampling: laid bare")

[prog edit] mode is already poly.

concerning the given example in my question:

after adding sample B (on track2) to the sequence sample A (on track1) is still visible in grid edit but it's kind of muted.

if sample B on track2 is being muted i can hear sample A (on track 1), again (?)

got it!

if mute grp: off and poly is switched on everythings fine

thanks so much!
