REC = Record over and erase all previous.
OVERDUB = Add to existing.
PLAY = Play from current position.
PLAY START = Play from beginning.

REC + PLAY = At current position record over and erase all previous on current track.
REC + PLAY START = From beginning, record over and erase all previous on current track.
OVERDUB + PLAY = Add to existing at current position on current track..
OVERDUB + PLAY START = From beginning, add to existing on current track.

I DID record with overdub, but as you can hear, as soon as I play a new sound, it instantly stops the one that was on the old layer.

So if it shouldn't sound like in the mp3 when I use overdub, is my MPC ****?

its probably that your last note is too long and so the note-off message is 'wrapping' to the beginning of the sequence.

go into step edit, find the last note of the problem sample, and turn the duration down as far as it will go. see if that fixes the problem.

if it does, then just start bringing the duration back up until it works right.

it should be something less than where it was originally :mrgreen:
