When you access the pad mixer and get this message is your current selected track on the main menu a midi track? It's happened to me before but that would be normal behavior since a midi track wouldn't have a program (I play keys from my triton extreme into 4k sequencer).

Nah, once I turned the "type" into "drum" and to "inst" it worked. I tried it again, it

didnt work. When I load a program, it somehow doesnt recognize it. So I have to go

and just play with some parameters. Recording something seems to work everytime.

Its almost like when you load a song from a previous mpc and you used 16 levels you

have to activate it by scrolling step edit on the 4000. Weird. :hmmm:
