Reviews and questions about the entry-level MPC500

Whatup everybody!
While recording and switching to trim mode it popped the message:

CPU Addr (read)
PC (0000029b)

and it froze. I had to switch it OFF and ON back again...did anybody experience such a bug or something?? Maybe is it somethig about the saving process?
Thanks in advance!

Yes. I think that this is issues with the ram (if you have ram installed?!?). Check em' if you got em', see if their in the supposed position. A bump can also have caused this, so KEEP COOL while MPC'ing ;-).

Well actually no bumps...
I'm using a "DMC-12 SDRAM DIMM for AKAI MPC500 + MPC1000 + MPC2500 (!28MBytes) MUTEC" copped the same day with the MP at Thomann.de., so I feel the ram should be OK...since it happened to me (couple of times, but the bug message was different and I was on v1.11) I dismounted and mounted back again the RAM and upgrated to v1.30: no more probs. Right now I did the v1.31 upgrade too.
Def hope it isn't a prob with the RAM...what do you think??
Thanks Eimer!
