I'm migrating my folders of samples to the MPC ONE. So far I have to go through these steps:

locate folder,
Load All,
Saving procedure to a new folder and name XPM

I'd like to move on to the next folder- but first i want to purge the memory so I'm not saving samples from the previous load up.

The only way I can do this is by rebooting, but there's gotta be a purge function.

Sorry, I looked through the manual so I'd be happy to get some advice from someone who knows.

dangit. more of an issue. I thought I was simply saving a folder of samples, but it zips them up to an XPJ.

I'm being anal, but I just want to stay organized, not have duplicate sounds inside of XPJs. I just want a simple file transfer.

Loading xpj (project) is the only thing that gives the option of clearing memory when loading I can think of.

thanks so much guys,

so I have a USB drive with folders of WAV.

I am putting the USB in the MPC ONE, finding a folder I want, opening all, then immediately making a new folder on my SD card (not using internal). Then I try to save this group of samples to that folder. Sometimes it saved as an XPG, other times XPJ... Just very confusing. I basically just want my samples to be organized. It's a shame they didn't let you just migrate file structures onto the MPC.

Create a new empty project, damn sight quicker than rebooting :lol:

What MPC-Tutor said.

It doesn"t seem like any of what you're doing is necessary or advisable. Just arrange your samples on your media using your PC, and you're good to go.

I guess I'll just load what I want to use from USB to make new projects.... plus like, there's like 8gb on my SD card so who cares if my micro drum samples pitched up 13 find themselves saved in a project. It's more about the music, not me figuring out how to be super organized.

Your thread suggests “super organized”.
