guys, i need help here ...
i used to use sonar 4.0 and record audio data , then time slice(chop) my audio data and then save each individual clip as a SAMPLE, then i would load them into my MPC500 via USB.
Now that i use Sonar 6.0 i do the same thing with sampling rate of 44.1khz and 16 bit audio driver..
My MPC500 don't see the NEW samples anymore...
help please !!!!!
what i a doing here wrong????

Ok, i tell you guys what's happening!!!
i called AKAIpro they said, its becoz i put too many samples inside the AUTOLOAD folder, so basically my RAM is overloaded and won't see after certain samples... :roll: :lol:

but looks like there is a problem with OS1.31....even if you set the autoload to OFF, still loads it...

if autoload is turned off. the mpc500 loads the internal memory.

yeah, thnaks brother..i was on the fone over an hour with akaipro tech support, i told him the same thing, but he said, NO, if autoload is to OFF, it shouldn't load your samples at all, he took my number and said he is gonna get back to me on that....

the other issue that i had earlier was I WAS NOT BEING ABLE TO ASSIGN MY 80 SAMPLES TO 80 KEYS OF A KEYBOARD CONTROLLER...
he told me "you can assign ONLY 48 samples to your keyboard controller...
meaning only the ones that are assigned to the 48 pads, can be assigned to a midi note.


thanks..

I think we have discussed about this before..
If theres an autoload folder in the CFcard its going to load the files from there no matter what the autoload setting is..
The autoload setting in load options is about loading the internal memory.. Its in the manual.

In my opinion its kinda silly that these features have been left named exactly the same way.. There should be something that you can find out the difference without reading the manual all the time...
