Track Jammed up?

Ok, so I go to sequence, and following the manual I load up a program with sounds, and I proceed to record a track. Say, a kick. Then I go to track 2 and I record a snare. Then in track 3 I record a hi-hat. (when I record the snare, I'm listening to the kick as I perform, while recording the hi-hat, I'm listening to both the kick and snare)

What happens is that then in track one the kick and the snare and hi-hat all sound. Isn't it supposed to be accumulative? (just listening to the kick on track one)

Like I record a kick on track 1, snare on track 2, then I change program and record bass on track 3...and all are supposed to sound as I recorded them in their tracks?

This minor bug or what I'm doing wrong is driving me nuts cuz I can't do any beats or anything...and it seems as if it broke...malfunction

Anybody out there might have an idea of what I am doing wrong?

Thanks Lampdog, I'll try that.

I think when I was working on the MPC some weeks ago (before I got down n out witha virus) I could work in that accumulative way with no hassle. I recorded track 1, then I went to track 2, track 1 was already there and recorded, then track 3 and so on. BUT when I got back to track 1 only the instrument I recorded first was there, then in track 2 the same, there were 2 recorded instruments.

Now every part I record affects all my tracks. Even up to track 30 is recorded.

Was this possible or am I just remembering things way off?

I tried copying. It went like this:

I copied one track to another, went fine.

Then when I tried to copy another track following the manual on another sequence, it copied another track which I didn't knew from where it came from.

Maybe it stuck on the copy RAM?

Some weeks ago I was using the track config and it seemed diferent, maybe should I tweak something? (I got hold up cuz I had a problem with may AC adapter, still kinda hold up)

So normally it goes like this:

When I erase something on track 1 to track 2nd, it won't let me erase anything on track 1.

If I erase on track two, it gets erased from ALL the tracks.

I make up a track, all tracks get recorded, up to d12-track 48.

Dis was the beat I was working on, it sounded much better in the cheap headphones
