file not found when i try to load up more than 1 sequence

basically i got rid of the 500 too limited. so i got the one thousand, its a lot better but i try to load up more than one sequence and when it comes to loading the programmes used in the sequence it keeps comming up with fuile not found and then when i try to load up the samples it supposedly cant find it says insuffiecient memory. i dont why because theres hardley any stuff loaded up. thanks

so is my only half full 2 gig memory card where it needs the memory or is it inside the unit, because the memory card is only half full. i will try putting the stuff in one folder though. cheers

It would be the memory inside the unit. The ram. When you turn on the MPC it will say like (16 MB installed) or (128 MB installed). This is how much ram you have. If you have 16 MB you'll probably want to upgrade that. Hope that was helpful...

My question is how do you go through 2 MPC models without understanding this?

i am guessing from your name that you are uk based (is thomas the tank engine known in the USA?).

if so, do a UK ebay search for:

PC 133 144PIN CL3 SODIMM 256MB

i just got the 128mb update for £16 (akai charge £100).

there is a video on youtube showing how to install it (it's very easy though!).

this upgrade is definitely worth £16.

thanks. im gonna upgrade it soon a blokei work with knows a bit about this stuff and gave a 20 gig laptop harddrive you can install with a special l;ike expansion bay thing. but for now how many samples and programmes an i load up at once ive got 2 programmes and 18 samples loaded up on this new tune im making and its started saying insuffiecient memory again when i try an load any more samples up. im fairly sure on my last pieces i made up there were more samples and shit than that. any answers?

Question... I have tried organizing my files this way many, many time (which is very logical and efficient) but it seems my MPC1K cannot find the SEQ file inside the folder... I have to place it outside the folder in order to see it. I don't understand why and it's driving me crazy.

Any thoughts on this???


Cheers

just create a new folder and then select save entire memory ...dont bother messin about with individual sequences and programs ,works fine for me

Cool, I will try that. Out of curiosity, do you hook up your MPC1K to your computer via USB?

yes i hook my mpc up to my computer via usb when i'm backing up my hd or transfering files around
