Alright peeps...just got my 2500 yesterday and tried to use the chopping shop function with a recorded sample but it says 'Insufficient Memory' already...WTF is that all about?! So to use that function, I have to upgrade the memory straight up..that right? Sorry if this is a dumbass question, I am new to all this!

Is the sample bigger than the memory you were trying to save it on?
Is the sample bigger than the amount of RAM you have in your machine?

Don't sample so long, sample shorter.

I'll have another go later but thanks for those tips....it probably was too long a sample...am feeling VERY thick now that I have entered into the world of the mpc!

Yo, u can't try to outdo your limitations until you get a FULL understanding of what you working with big dog. THEN and ONLY then can you let imagination take form and fly.

Ok, so any ideas where I can get an expansion ram in the UK? Anyone I have seen are said to be for the 1000...can these be used in the 2500? Also, are there any cheaper alternatives?! Sorry for being completely dense :roll:

The 1000/2500 use the same RAM.

And one more thing before I irritate you people even further, is there anyway to delete the internal samples/programs? I've tried searching on this forum but must be Stevie Wonder today 8)
