I can load / record a sample but when I assign it to a Pad it does not play. However I can Edit and hear the sample in TRIM mode. Also in PROGRAM mode I see that the sample is assigned to the right Pad (and bank). In OTHER mode I check that the Pad is responsive. I upgraded to AKAI OS v1.24. What else could be wrong? Any advice is welcome!
Thanks!
Andreas

Thanks for your help. The conditions seem to be fulfilled on my side. I have the stereo out connected to my mixer board and I can hear the sample in TRIM mode, the Pad is assigned to ST but I cannot hear it outside TRIM, one shot & volume I checked. :(

It's not a hardware issue, since outputs audio in Trim mode. So I think it's a program or mixer issue.

Do you maybe have a program or project from the previous owner you can check and see if it shows similar behaviour?


I re-installed AKAI OS v1.24 but the problem is still there. I need the capability to record a sample from audio input and I think JJOS does not have this.
