oh you want to load them into the mpc. if you search you may be able to find the other threads about this. i havent read much about it, but aparently the files or cd or something has to be in akai format or something?

i dont know...also, if the .wav files are in a folder on the cd, the 2000 wont read it. it cant read folders. but there's other threads about this that might help you.

let me see if i can maybe dig it up for you........just cause im feelin that butt there :lol:

when using the search function, i think you have to use the word AND in between each word your searching for. that will really narrow down your searches.


edit: here is the thread that should help you. read the posts but especially the one from Grouphome and Lampdog

2k classic can't read regular ole wav cd's. they need to be in an akai format.

So therefore what you are trying, will not work without being in an akai image formatted cd..

yup

Yes, this is one of the advantages of the XL over the classic.

yes, str8 from data cd burned on computer, no special akai format needed.
Like pt3r said, that's the ticket over the classic 2k.
