Hi all,
i just installed the new 2.10. update and now i even can't play the examples from start page anymore. It loads the samples but when i hit "play" i only hear short chopped sound bits and crackles.
Whats going on here?
Besides that how do i get the new synth addons to work without a computer? I have linux so i have to put updates and the synth folder onto a sd-card.
Help please

The guy above me covered the part about resetting prefs. I wilk answer your linux question. You can install the mpc expansions and synth content under WINE. Then just copy it to your sdcard.

Once installed your stuff will be in /home/$USER/wine/drive_c/program data/akai.

I use linux as well and refuse to use windows for basically anything if i can help it.

Downgrade doesn't work. It asks me if i want to downgrade and seems to do it but after it comes alive again its still on 2.10 and still stutters. :-(

If it's still buggy, go back to 2.9 and then to 2.10 again.

Thank you for your hint but doesn't help
There seems way for me to go back to 2.9. I tried with sd-card and i tried with update-software.
The MPC asks me if i want to downgrade, it seems to process it but after restart it is still on 2.10.

You inspired me to try the windows - update software via wine. Wasn't sucessful. The MPC-software doesn't detect the MPC although it is visible using lsusb.
Any idea?
