Ok so figured out how to load my drum samples onto the 2000. 1st off, can my 2 mb really only hold 6 sounds? and everytime I make a 2 bar sequence and stop recording, it doesnt let me record again on it. like some sounds are cut off or missing and I cant to start over, do u guys know wat im talking about

NO it sounds like your hitting record + play at the same time which would erase jsut what you laid down if you want to add to your sequence then you need to use Overdub + Play

I hate to have to ask this but you are recording the new stuff on a different track right?
That and the overdub thing.
Without the ram you should have about 30 seconds I believe.
That's enough for drum hits ( usually) but you most def want that ram.

Maybe more than 6, depending on how big the size of the sounds are.
Bad to put associate an exact number of sounds to a mb size.
