on the live II i have to use the q-link button to the second “page” and there swing is the third q-link knob

Cheers, I've just downgraded to double check and yes in 2.15 it's on Q-LINK 7 in grid view (second column, second dial from bottom)

Still there a 2nd page in your MENU from now on

Thanks! I should have read the guide before posting, maybe. At the same time, this is a surprising place for these settings, and apparently there are no buttons in any other place (like the plugin track or midi track) that take you directly to these settings. Something to add to the release version definitely.

[MENU] > TRACK VIEW provides keyrange control (this was the same in MPC2)

MPC One - when using my zoom l12 as an audio interface after 3.4 update, audio coming from MPC clips/sounds distorted randomly. If I go in the menu and change it back to internal, then back to l12 again it fixes it. Sometimes happens multiple times in one session. Haven't yet checked to see if it does the same thing using just internals. Also, getting low memory warning since updating. Didn't have either problem on 2.15.

The infamous 'multichannel midi note off' bug is still not fixed

**MPC X**

Error:
No Drive Available for installing Content. Please Attach or change the drive.

Issue:
MPC X no longer recognizes the external hard drive when plugged in.

Hardware:
WD MyPassport HDD (it's old)

Steps taken:
(Light on hard drive is lit and the drive is spinning)
-Restarted MPC (no drive)
*Downgraded to 2.15.1 (drive recognized)
-Download and reinstalled 3.4 Bata PC (no drive)
*Downgraded to 2.15.1 (drive recognized, yet again)

Key 61 here. The Pitch Wheel and Mod Wheel no longer work!

I have gone into every menu and setting I can find - nothing filtered etc etc. When I look at the midi output monitor there is no activity from these wheels being shown. It's like they don't exist.

I now know my way around EVERY menu since I have spent a full afternoon trying to figure it out!

Can somebody with a key 61 verify this before I go and report this as a bug to Akai, please?

Let me guess... filesystem is NTFS right ?

I don't have a Key61, but a Key37, and that one works as it should.

On my MPC live mk1 unable to save my project once I have used stems.
Worked all day on a track went to save,.. got the dreaded "unable to save " screen .
Have SSD installed so not saving to internal drive .
Tried all my USB drives and all of my many SD cards , reformatted them on my mac and windows machines... No luck. Gave up and shut down
Had another crack at it same sample lengths tried to bounce out the bassline with stems hit save ... no dice...Deleted all stem tracks and unit saved ..
Also noticed Q-links don't work on the sampler page .. beta life

When in the sample browser my physical "+-" buttons LOAD the next or previous sample instead of switching to them for audition/preview.

I'm experiencing this problem too. Not every boot, but way more often than prior versions. My date and time remain accurate.

I'm not sure why this happens. Could it be that my MPC is taking too long to connect to my Wi-Fi after booting? I have no special/unusual Wi-fi encryption, and my MPC is less than 10m from the router.

Any suggestions?

updated linux / different drivers than in previous versions - didn't report it as I thought it's because of my SSH. I can reliably induce it by initializing two three SSH sessions (two terminals + 1x total commander window). Ususally flick of a wifi on/off button and closing terminals solve the problem. 10-20% of cases I need switch the wifi off, create a new project and turn the wifi back on - 100% of times everything goes back to normal.

Key 61: The arpeggiator does not work - nor of course the latch button.

Going back to v2.0 tomorrow.

The Flatten Elastique feature is available for audio tracks but does not seem to be working properly. The results are of the same quality as those from the Flatten feature.
