OS 2x - JOYS AND PAINS thread PT1

very very much

So, how did you fix it?
EDIT: okay i see

I do have a strange problem:
I chopped a sample (Hihat Drum Snare) in the Chop Modus and converted it to a new program,
and now when i programm a beat with the 3 Samples i got a strange behaviour:

when i change the sequence and return to it i can only hear the recorded hihat and nothing else. the drum hit up sometimes and not at the right positions and the snare even disappears off the loop
I don´t know what it could be, the loop was ok before i changed the sequence...

just for general info:
- i recorded everything in individual tracks.
- I did not turn any mute on the tracks or else.


someone knows what´s wrong ?!!

I see i was not the only one having it play in the trim and not in the main screen.

I fixed it by factory reset as well, holding down erase while booting.

However, i think this problem is caused by that function internal sounds with pad: set to OFF. leave it on. This was for people who were triggering midi devices and didn't want the pgm to be triggered at the same time

I feel somewhat emotional about this os update. because of it i could finnally do a lot of my pre-production at work without needing my macs for editing. Thanks Akai and a special thanks to Sparq cause he had to deal with a lot of assh'les and hostility from a bunch of ungrattfull mothaf*ckas!!!

Respect Fam!

Now i set the metronome thing to 1/8 50% and then record the hihats, change track and gonna record the kick and snare, i bang out to the hihats awile until i like it and then record it, now to the problem........the sounds like cuts all the bass? and when i then play it therse almost no sound at all...
I have format my CF yesterday and changed to 0db

But if i load up one for the nym drumkits it works great.



Hope u understand : )

in the program parameters screen there is a new function to the top right of the screen where it says PLAY. you can set the whole program to be mono or poly. it seems when you slice a sample and create a new program from that it defaults to mono. just switch it to poly and you should be fine.



i noticed in step edit mode that when you press the overdub button to add notes it stays on where before it only came on when you held it down.
not sure if thats good or bad yet though.
what is annoying me is if you say change a pad number in step edit the rec light comes on and stays on as well. you have to press it to go off or if you touch a pad it will be entered the sequence

It helps prevent overloads.

This thingy about adjusting it is irellevant to your pgm volume thang/issue.

i knew i wasn't crazy.

see my post above, same thing i think

in step edit, i got strange results by using shift + the locate buttons, if there are some pads already recorded in the track.

for instance " shift + < " (to go one step back asccording to TC) does not seem to go anywhere, although sometime it does a multiple select...

and " shift + > " (to go forth) just goes where there is another pad entered, although it used to go every step.

---

the way the mute groups reacts seems also different. but this is easily fixed by using the mute target. (useful feature btw)

and i also got the blank screen on startup. "power + erase" fixed it. nice one solah

doesnt work for me when i boot my mpc..it says "a correct OS file wasnt found" wtf man ? but i see it in my CF when i go to load and check teh files that are on my CF

all other OS's have worked for me when i do an uipdate

did anybody fix the problem with the sound if so how?

Akai thank you, thank you, thank you. Between this and getting 200 really old records from my grandad today im . Im dancing at my desk as i type.

i installed it and it didn't work, i followed the steps though.... i'm pissed off, just phoned akai and they said i was the first with that friggin problem

Did you have o/s 1.7 installed??? YOU HAVE TO HAVE THAT TO UPGRADE.

Did you have o/s 1.7 installed??? YOU HAVE TO HAVE THAT TO UPGRADE.

oh snap no..let me try that..i had 1.7 but i kept having probs with my CF so i went back to 1.5 but ill get back to you thanx

Yo mad people was crying about not having the new o/s for months.....now that it's here there's mad people crying about other 5h1t. Some pople are never satisfied. Yo sparq! if I was you I wouldn't answer 5h1t for these cry babies. Read the maual and stop b1tchin!!!!

Let this be a lesson to us all...(1)to be patient and mature. and (2) that if you have a certain something that you are sure every one else will covet, it might be a good asumption that rule 1 is null and void around here.


I hope its everything you B!tched and moaned for and more.
