why do people buy mpcs for and don't know what the hell to do with them?

do they get them. open the box. then cant figure sh!t out
and come here and post it and wait...... for a response.

and while they wait they just sit there and look at the mpc?



i think there should be a MPC for Dummies stickys.

And some even come with "Well that's what this forum is for".

That line cracks me up when the initial question is SOO basic and covered in the manual.

It should have never been an issues and made it as far as the forum, a place where people would like to discuss real issues
and not regurgitate the same manual covered basic stuff.

Is there like a pop-up book version to the manual? Or pictures only manual? :lol:


What would get peoples attention is if there was a youtube video of a guy turning the pages of the manual.

He wouldn't even have to read. Because it's on youtube and it's a video people will pay attention to it.

First, you should unbox your MPC. Make sure you remove all the cardbord surroundings of your machine. Do the same with the PVC foil......don't throw the box away before you took out the AC cord! Without that your quest for sampling will die in its beginnings!

haha what the hell il just tell him

what you need is a dj mixer and a turntable inorder to record

plug in all the stuff correctly go to mode record and then press record while insuring your record signal dosent go above the threshold you set
