Exchange tips and tricks for the Akai MPC4000

can anyone please tell me why what I'm hearing in my headphones on the 4000 is completely different than what gets rendered when I record my main output. does that question make sense?

I had an mpc 2500 I did everything in it, and then I'd record from the main output. what I heard in the headphones, was exactly what it played back.

I recently got an mpc 4000 and when I do everything in it, and record from the main output, the sound quality is completely different than what I hear in the headphones.

it's like going from 24 bit or 16 bit to 12 bit quality. anyone have any idea what the problem might be?
