Just has an example: If you have a pad with all four layers playing a long stereo samples in POLY mode if you press the pad 4 times in a row it will get to the limit of polyphony.


word, i hear you on the layers. i need to really disect whats going on in this beat...i may have the drums layered kinda deep. i'll check it out, thanks.

yeah it's quite easy to let the beat run away with you without realising. unfortunately, you can't simply keep on adding sounds with these little boxes like you can with pcs and macs. it'll teach you to put down higher quality stuff though.
