When you try to leave the page a pop up will show up and offer you that same coupon code to stay but it doesn't work. The price stays the same.. :Sigh:

AKAI nailed the strategy to get those $50 to $100 out of our pockets once in a while. Basically a subscription at this point. :mrgreen:

Good walkthrough of what's included in the pack

Says if you buy live 3, get the pro pack pre-activated on the live 3, AND can activate on 3 other devices - so I'm viewing that as effectively 100 quid off the live 3 ! (if you have other MPCs... which I do...)

Yeah that's not "flexible time signatures". More like inflexible.
So far MPC3 has broken all things that I like about using hardware. I came to the MPC for a standalone workstation, a pattern based sequencer, a drum machine, and as a VSTi in a DAW. It's replaced pattern based sequencing with an arrangement page, gotten rid of multiple time signatures, and the VSTi3 version is still missing.

I might just give up hope soon. I mostly did with Push 3 standalone which also started off with no time signatures, but a few things kept it around while I waited. It works fine as a controller for Live on the computer which can do all sorts of time signatures, so it wasn't breaking all the things I liked about the hardware. Push 3 is now capable of multiple time signatures, and uses pattern based sequences to make a song in standalone like the MPC does.

The clip-matrix has been on the Force since 2019.

Pad A1 can be any note. If I go to the step sequence on the top left it shows C2 actually it shows the last note i triggered in main mode. Highlight pad select, selecting other notes, and placing them. i don't seem to find a bug here
