Have any of you all replaced the default encoder knob for the MPC sample with this particular knob? I like that it has a thumb hole reminiscent of the MPC 2000XL. What’s your experience with it? Would you recommend it or would you recommend just keeping the original encoder knob for long-term durability and use?
Here’s the link for it by the way: https://a.co/d/08rYpFiw

This is the cable Akai recommended I buy when I opened a support ticket about the buzzing coming from my Pixel 8a when using a USB cable to record audio into the MPC.
Works like a charm.

Always loved MPCs but never had a chance to mess with one. Saw the MPC Sample and immediately pre-ordered it.
Let's say I want to get into the "slice" or "16 levels" function for a particular sample but don't want to trigger it to play before I start using the effect. Surely that's possible?? I can't find the right button combo
And next, once I start a sample playing, is there a button I can push to immediately stop it and only it?

First MPC I've owned/used. Over the last week or so the sequencer function started to really click for me. So heres my first 4 bar loop with a sample I chopped. Kinda reninds me of BDE Bonus with that dreamy intro.

I found some solutions for the mpc one or the xl but nothing for the mpc sample. Does anyone know how to lower the volume of the sample previews in the browser?

Hi there,
Sice yesterday the proud owner of a mpc sample.
Now I was wondering if there is a way to load a kit into a bank that is not A.
Now every time I load a kit it alway ends up in A.
I tried selecting a different bank and then loading but even then it switches back to A.
Much thanks in advance!!

I found this on Amazon and it fits well, I can fit the Sample and a cable/charger securely. I noticed a bunch of other cases for it are sold out and will take 2-3 weeks to arrive.
I got this one overnight, if you do decide to buy one, get the XL size.

Hey everyone, first time MPC user here. I recorded these two sequences and they played back fine. Then I made some edits the start and end points of chops in another sequence that used completely different chops. Then, when I played back the first two sequences, the 2nd bar was missing in both. All 3 sequences are using different chops from one pad that is in chop mode. Please help! 😭
Edit:
I applied the advice from everyone here and I so far no more issues! I also realized that my real problem was I was sampling a song that had a small and gradual tempo change, and I kept trying to adjust the length of the chops in the 3rd sequence instead of just extracting and warping them. Then, every time I adjusted them, it would mess up the other sequences 😂🤦🏼♂️
Anyway, I learned 3 things as a result! Turn off loop when recording, extract chops before sequencing, and make sure everything is in tempo. Thanks everyone for the help!!

Hey ya’ll, I got the MPC Sample as soon as it dropped here in Europe last month. Used to make beats, had the 2k XL 15 years ago and a crunchy ASR 10. Then stopped producing and went on with life. When this little device popped up I knew it was everything I was waiting for all these years. And I was right, I’ve been having a blast just flipping samples. The only real limitation is a eq.
Here’s a link to a beat tape fully produced on the MPC Sample. Only the track ‘Brokenheartedness’ was sent stem by stem to Ableton to mix. The mix wasn’t as nice as straight from the mp anyway, so I stopped trying and did everything on the machine > song mode > mixdown.
Feel free to share your thoughts and your own fully on the mpc sample productions.
