just hit MODE, then pad 2:LOAD and find your samples and assign them to pads

expanding on this, you have to load the samples into the MPC's internal memory from the card before you will see the files available to the OS....

I too am having the same problem I've read the maunal and I cant seem to figure out how to do this. I loaded the sample sounds from my CF card and I pressed window and I was able to assign them to pads but when I go back to the main screen I dont find them please help.

Ok I figured it out (well my problem at least) and now I feel dumb.

What I did was first, I went to the load feature and loaded and assigned all the samples I wanted to use to pads. (MODE, Pad#2 LOAD, used the data wheel to find my samples and hit DO IT and assign to a pad)

I then went into the program feature and when I created and named my new program I had no problem finding my samples I loaded up from my CF card. (MODE Pad#7 PROGRAM, and it should be easy from there I read the program section in the manual to figure it out a little better) Now all I need is the memory upgrade so I can really get down to bizznaaazzz! thanks and I hope that helps u solve your problom also.

just a suggestion here...try an editing program to save to pads and save pgm...such as mpc pad 187 for the mac or Blue Box for the pc...oh one other note I like to save all my pgms in a folder...just in case I have a large kit that is spread out over more than 64pads...like drums, sweeps, samples, riffs blah blah blah...ex. Dre kit with 200 wavs...somethin' better out there let me know...I'm diggin the info on this site
