Ok, wheres the smartest mpc 1k user at on here?!

My 1k is acting up. I posted a while back but no one replied. I need some feedback please. When I switch on my machine, the display kindof flutters like its about to die and then the machine acts oddly. It automatically resets itself and autoloads from the cf. I don't even have autoload turned on. Help please. I have been sequencing in my fusion and I need my drums back.

1. download a fresh copy of your OS
2. reinstall it
3. turn off autoload
4. if it dont fix your issue take it back to the store and get a replacement.

try resetting your 1k by holding the "erase" button while turning off and on the mpc. see if that works.


this resets the mpc to the factory settings

Thanks man. This has been driven me crazy. I'll try it now. Do you fellas think that leavin the 1k on for weeks at a time will ruin it? Cuzz thats what I did.

Well quit it, common sense, turn it off when you are not using it and don't need it on.

I think I fried it. It just keeps on turning itself on and off sparatically. Im pissed. Now I've gotta go get a 2500. This sucks. Im thinking that its the power supply.

Is it still under warranty?

I doubt it . I bought it last lear in like october or something. I didn't even know that they had one.

Sorry to hear that, usually shops will have 30+ warranty and the manufacturer will have a 1 year warranty.

Dude if you bought it in october you're still under warentee.
Send that isht in for repair.

rofl. good luck.

Where did you buy it from? If you bought it from americanmusical they give an extra year warranty, so you would have 2 years..

I went to gc. I still have all of the factory packaging and papers. Im gonna check it out. If not, 2500 here I come!

Why would you leave it on for weeks anyway?!

because the piece of mukk wouldn't save any of my projects right. I tried saving project files, because I do a lot of tracks in a 2-4 day period but I always saved wrong. So I would just leave it on so I would loose all of my samples and stuff.
