I just discovered the hard way that 2 of the 4 FX are missing in the fx page. it shows only 2 fx slots : send A/B
i would have droped a picture but i don't know how to do it...
Anybody had that before ?[/img][/quote][/url]

Hi, No need for a picture.


When the MPC is in 96khz mode, the FX drop from 4 --> 2

When in 44.1khz or 48.8 khz (whether 24bit or 16bit) the FX are at 4.


Didn't really see this documented myself, but noticed it after getting my MPC.

Yeah, this is undocumented - a rather egregious omission - I remember being very confused by it myself when I bought my MPC4000....
