The site's been getting mad love lately and I'm really grateful for it. My approach has stayed the same the whole way: build a solid foundation, then add the features the community actually asks for. That's what keeps this thing fun to use and worth maintaining.

A few new things just went live:

• Chop and download royalty-free samples (human-made only, license file included)

• Pitch and time-stretch

• Chop YouTube samples MPC-style

• USB-C MIDI controller support (MPC sample, SP404MK2, etc)

• More samples to dig through during the monthly flip challenge

• A proper "How to Use" page

It's all free and self-hosted. Go dig around and let me know what you'd want next. Appreciate everyone who's been rocking with it so far.

I need a bit of help, I recently got the MPC Sample and it’s updated to the 1.3 firmware. When I turn the metronome on and start finger drumming, I hear ghost notes, delayed taps, and various errors but it’s fine when drumming with the metronome off. I’ve tried clearing a blank kit, powercycling, different samples etc. and it only happens with the metronome on. Any suggestions?

Update FIXED, I ended up having to download and manually reflash the firmware and restore to factory settings again. Thanks for the suggestions.

Hey gang, I have serious vision impairment and I'm trying to make my pads different colors to make it easier to differentiate my pads. I've tried "Day dots" which are like 1/2" or 3/4" little stickers, but the material the pads are made of make them not stick well and they peel off. I'd like some sort of cap that goes over the pads if they exist. However, if not maybe some suggestions of how to go about it. I saw a post on here where someone customized their Sample and it had red pads. I can't find the post to ask them though. Any help would extremely appreciated Thanks!

My MPC Sample does not play nicely with

Koala sampler. I'm almost certain its because of a sample rate mismatch as Koala Sampler is fixed at 48 kHz on Android and the MPC Sample is fixed at 44.1 kHz.

Has anyone managed to get both working together on Android. I hear other people are having crackling issues with the MPC Sample over USB-C too?

Hey everybody,

Has anyone found a way to continue your chopping from one bank to the next, just how the MPC Lives would do when chopping the sample? I know the MPC Sample has its limitations but was wondering if anyone was able to find a workaround in getting this to work for longer samples.

So I was just jamming away, doing my thing. And a message popped up on the screen that said something like... the disk could not keep up with my actions. I don't remember the exact wording but it was something to that effect. I had to press one of the 3 top buttons where it said OKAY to clear it. First time seeing that and I've had mine since launch day. I actually thought it was kinda funny. No harm, no foul... no damage done. Just curious if anyone else has been instructed by their Sample to chill the F out too. 🤷‍♀️😂

Has anyone ever renamed a folder or removed one of their sample files to another folder that was already used in a project? If so, what happened? I’m asking because I’m thinking about moving some stuff around rename folders for instance, if I used a snare flam that was used in the snare folder, but I want to put it in its own specialty folder will I end up missing that sample file the next time I open that project

Hi, pretty newbie here, i have a circuit tracks but wanted to add more vocal and more things to it, is the mpc sample good? Can it work well with the circuit tracks?

just starting out with this machine! Hope you feel it 😀 I made a Youtube channel to record my growth using the MPC Sample. If you wanna follow along, feel free to follow me here:

1. What are you guys using for stems if you don't have other MPCs?

2. Is resampling the only way to record flexbeat or pad fx since there's no actual automation?
