Technical questions for the MPC2000xl and the MPC2000

I know this is a luxury problem because former samplers probably didn’t have the feature/option to see sampled waveforms.
• Why not use it, when it’s there? :D

I had a experiment where I sampled a loop into a Yamaha A4000 and used “remix” function, where the Yamaha A4000 take a sample and mash it with cutting/breaking the loop and re-arrange the loop with new start and ending points.
• After that I sampled the loop from Yamaha A4000 into Akai Mpc-2000XL

After I had sampled the loop into my Akai Mpc-2000XL I experienced that there was no waveform in the trim function but I could still hear sounds coming out of my Akai Mpc-2000XL

Can someone explain to me what I did wrong?

I’m sure its not because I sampled in too low volume because I’m aware of that.

2kxl manual page 98 says VIEW, maybe you are viewing left or right and your wave is on the other side playing. Maybe you are zoomed all the way out while the screen is located near a zero point in the wave, you'd see nothing.
