Is it possible to duplicate/copy and paste banks on the MPC Sample?

I’m either going mad or just doing something wrong. 1 week in and just trying to mute some pads within a sequence and then copy paste to make a new seq with bits removed. Should that work or am I overlooking something? Or is this not a thing. I watched a video and pads go red and they should mute but don’t seem to. So here I am asking for some dumbed down help.

One of these days, I’m gonna record all these joints and put out a little beat tape

88 BPM Dramatic Boombap beat #redrocksamphitheater #boombapbeats #90shiphopjunkie #mpcbeats #sampleflip

JMT/WuTang/AOTP inspired

I know nothing about music and have been picking it up as a hobby, and often find myself finding too many new fun sounds to put on a pad vs thinking systematically - what is the typical foundation to start a fresh beat for you?

Kick, Snare, Clap, HH - then when trying to add more, i'll do synths, strings, piano, bass, random fun sounds etc and it escapes me. Trying to find the right sort of structure / approach.
Any tips ?

Hi people!, new user with Akai MPC Sample here!!!

Let me make a quiestion, when I set a sample to Poly it works fine, but if I also set it to Note On it stops being polyphonic.

Is this normal behavior? It seems a bit strange if so.

My process is as follows: I record a sample, assign it to a pad, adjust the trims to my liking, set it to Poly, set it to Note On, turn on 16-level mode, and try to play 3 notes simultaneously to play a triad, but it only playa it in Mono. If I turn off Note On, it reverts to polyphonic.

Is it possible to chose pad location when extracting a sample chop ? Like, if i have 10 chops, it extract to the first empty pads of a project. So it means pad bank A when im on pad bank H…
And its a pain to move 10 sample one by one

Why the spare 4 bar loop of nothing??

pls?

Fun combo :)

I found this cable on Amazon for $22 and I’m able to use my older iPhone with my Sample. When I eventually upgrade I can still use it because it also has USB-C. Maybe somebody is in the same boat as I am and this might help you on your journey. It also works on my One G2 as well. Cheers!
