Ey Wat Up Everybody.

I Got My First MPC 1000 A Month Ago And Im New To All This Shit.
I Was Reading Tha Manual And I Read Where U Could Upload Tha Sequences And Sounds To Ur Computer.So I Wanted To Upload A Sequence I Made.
I Tried That And When I Did, My Computer Said It Wasnt Able To pLAy It Cuz Of Tha File Its On.
It Said Its A .SEQ File And My pLAyer Wouldnt pLAy It.I Was Wonderin If Theres Any Kind Of pLAyer That Will pLAy Tha .SEQ File.

If U Can Let Me Kno Wat Kinda Media pLAyers Will pLAy Tha .SEQ File.
Thanx

... into a wav file and then use the usb connection to transfer it to your computer.

This is easily done by resampling the main out in the MPC's record mode. Press mode then pad 5 to enter record mode. Then select source as main out. Then record your sequence and save it. Then export wav file of your sequence to your computer.

Your player will then have no problem playing it.

Scope, you have SO much learning to do.

SEQ contains no audio, only recorded midi events.
SEQ file inside the mpc is MPC only.

Ey I Tried Wat U Told Me To Do, But When It Gave Me Tha Option To pLAy It Back, I Couldnt Hear AnyThing...
And When I First Saved Tha Sequence, I Was Messin Around Wit All Tha Buttons And I Saw Something Where U Can Switch Tha File From A .SEQ To A .WAV..But That Was Before I Posted This Topic Up.

Aight I'm a giv a go at this.

I think there are more of us that would appreciate you using normal lettering in your posts man. It's annoying with all the "I recently found the shift button", and it probably slows down your writing as well.

SEQ's are for mpc only, wav is multioperational. You said that you had the option between seq and wav somewhere and this is probably when you hit mode->pad 3. This is the save dialogue. It won't let you choose what fileformat to save it as (I'm pretty sure that it's doesn't say wav or seq though) It let's you choose WHAT to save...seq's...samples...programs...all of these can me saved individually.

You need to do what JPFunk said...unless you plan to track it in a daw...which I'm thinking you're not...
