how do i get my .seq files to play on my computer?

you can't. .seq files are files that only the mpc can read. if you want to hear what you have on your mpc, on your computer, you can either track it out to a DAW such as pro tools, cubase, reaper, etc. or you can resample your sequence back into your mpc and transfer it to your computer as a wav file.

midi will just keep it all sync'd up while you record it in. but if you save the seq as a "mid" file then you can load it directly into your daw program and use vst's for the instruments.

Save as Midi........Never thought of that.......But then your not really tracking out the beat you made.....Thats kinda makein a new if your not usining the original sound.
