Don't know if this has been posted here already but i discovered a big bug in theTRIM menu.
After you DISCARD a mono sample (cutting of the strart and end points) there's a click in the next sample. Example: DISCARD a big part of sample01 and then listen to sample02 and you'll probably hear a 'click' that wasn't there before.
The bug becomes even clearer if you cut the sample to zero: set START and END point both to "0" and then choose EDIT > DISCARD. After you've done this the next sample will be gone - the name is empty and the END position says "???". This "nameless" sample cannot be deleted.
It gets crazier if you discard this "nameless" sample - all samples after that one have now disappeared.
If you load new samples after this they won't show up in PROGRAM. Spin the DATA WHEEL and you'll only see the samples before the "nameless" sample.
For some reason this bug only appears with mono samples, stereo samples can be trimmed without a problem.
I sample in the MPC1000 directly so it can't be a software compatibility problem.
It seems like a problem with memory allocation after cutting. I tested it on three different MPC's and they had the same problem in both 1.03 and 1.04. So i'm pretty sure it's a bug in the OS but would like to hear what you experience when you try the above.
Hope Akai fixes this bug soon, then i can start sampling.....
