Alright i made my first track very happy . So i wanted to save it and load it on pc so i can hopefully put it on my IPOD. I save everything program sample sequence and when i hook mpc up the computer via usb it opens as a removable disk fine . When i open the disk i see all the folders from the mpc and even the ones i created but the files or my track what have you is either in PGM format (file) Or SEQ format (file) or they are in windows media format which is fine but when windows media player opens it plays but no sound . Also if i try to save ENTIRE MEMORY it tells me card is full ANY HELP PEOPLES THANKS ...PEACE

You need to either RESAMPLE(will require the 128mb expansion if its a full complete song) or RECORD your tracks to your PC so u can have them saved as a .wav/mp3 file to then load to your IPOD.

So how do you resample?

I've looked through the whole manual and don't see anything about resampling. I have the 128MB memory so this is how I'd want to do it.

Nevermind - think I found it in the section where it talks about recording the main out.

"In this section, you will learn how to record the same signal found on the STEREO OUT of the MPC500. With this feature, you can add the
effects to the recorded sample and re-record it, or you can record the phrase that you created with the sequence feature as one sample."
