Hey there!

I have a strange repeating problem and searched the web without finding anyone else having the same problem as it seems. Or the mpc-users that use als-export to finish tracks in ableton are really non existent ^^

If I try to export via ALS the first audio-track is almost always empty (a wave file being generated but without any audio) - if I go back to the mpc and ALS-export a second time everything seems to be fine ^^

it was NEVER the case that a second attemp was also faulty but it is annoying still. Am I really the only one on planet earth with this experience?

Thx for letting me know - one

To the community, this is a well-known issue. To Akai, not sure, because it's been this way since like 2.1 or something like that, and it hasn't been fixed yet.

For me, exporting the first time, the first track is always missing. Export again right after, the first track exports fine.

The other variation is what you're describing.. first track is empty.

Either way, it's an issue, but Akai doesn't seem too keen on fixing it, because it's been there for several versions now.

The times I have done it the first track seemed to be the effect returns on the drums for me. I either deleted it or turned it down. Never was a big issue for me, have noticed it though.
