I'd noticed this before, but never been too bothered, UNTIL NOW!
Is the lowest midi note that the 500 can generate c1(36)?
what happened to the whole octave below that? i need it, my mpc's tiny, my MIDI keyboard is massive,,,,WHY? is this similar on other MPC's? give me C0(24)

I got a question???
Once you asign a MIDI note to a certain pad how can you here it? I been trying to connect my MPC to my Sony Acid MIDI library and I cant get the MPC to play the sounds from the library?

MIDI is not audio!! The sound will come from the sound source - i.e. the library. The MPC will transmit the midi messages (i.e. what note to play) but the sound comes from elsewhere. Try hooking up your pc to speakers.
