Is there any way of locking the tempo on the MPC? Its very easy to get carried away jammin out hits over a song with the note repeat and accidentally double tap the button....and accidentally change the WHOLE tempo of the sequence with often disatrous effect, especially if using loops in the tune

Course it don't matter when in the confines of my bedroom but if this EVER happens on stage I'm gonna be a touch embarassed :(

any suggestions?
I never have a problem with it just hold it simple as that.

A-ha! One for the FAQ, methinks, and a little experimentation.

Mode: Other, Misc Page has the setting in question.
Like, totally excellent, dudes.
