Hey guys, I just bought an MPC 2000 XL. I have the MBox 2 with Reason Adapted for Digidesign also loaded. I currently have my MPC 200 XL hooked up to the Mbox 2. I have Protools open. I have Reason open. I recieved two CDs full of loops and drum kits. I loaded them onto my computer. The MPC 200 XL has a zip drive in it. I have a seperate zip drive connected to my computer but no sounds or drum kits loaded onto a zip drive disk. How the hell do I get sounds loaded onto this drum machine? And or ..... how the hell do I access sounds through Protools or Reason on my computer???

I'm ready to shoot somebody man!!!!!

Please help me!!!

Well you can use MIDI to play/sequence the sounds from the reason synthesiesers/instruments with the pads. You can move samples in .wav file format to the zip disk and then load the samples in mpc and assign to pads, and you can track your beats through protools....... wait you have all this gear but cant even get sounds on the mp? Read your manuals please.


Peace
