on V 1.22 press Mode, Pad 10. Then while on the global screen, hit F6 4 times. Any body getting that "Akai Presents" screen too?

yes i do, and the cool thing about it is that you are also in that credits list if you changed your mpc owner name to your own name... in my case it says "guten morgen" (good morning in german) so it doesn´t fit in that good.

good lookin out.

do you know if you have to enter that in whenever you update the OS, or does it stay in memory?

it's an easter egg. :wink:

it s always fun to find those. there used to be a lot of cool hidden stuff in mac softwares way back during the mac os 7-8 era. strange robots in Quark Xpress for example.

Hehe, IIRC it's CMD-ALT-K in Quark to kill everything on a document and watch it slide down the screen. In 3.3 it used to have an alien come onto the screen and zap the document. There's also stuff like holding down a key (I think it's ALT) when you go to the 'About insert application name' screen in Adobe apps to get an alternative splash screen. The joys of being bored when you're a graphic designer 8)
