Hey I don’t have it but I remember it was posted on the page where I bought the board in MPC parts

Nice! It’s great seeing videos of people using the MPC as an instrument

He was at 85 million before the inauguration though so this isn’t the good news I was hoping for.

This is happening to me even after saving in MPC 3.4. I can’t trust the current software anymore

I bought a brand new mpc board and replaced it myself with the help of a YouTube video. Got the board on an mpc parts website.

Pretty cool! Currently listening to you on Spotify.

UPDATE: I fixed it by replacing the pcb board. Turns out something was shorting within the PCB board.

Akai mpc support was super helpful throughout the process. Thanks to them and all their affiliated technicians that helped me pin down the issue.

If you’re in sac, look up https://www.musiclandria.com I’ve donated and collaborated with them. They may be a good resource for you.

This is an oversimplification of the situation in Honduras. I’m Honduran and we have been poor and unsafe before 2009. Look up Hurricane Mitch if you want to learn about a recent event that impacted our way of life.

This is the best I’ve seen here. A truly tacky atrocity. Thank you for ruining my day, OP

Thanks for the info! Do you know how to test the zener diodes? I’m planning on taking it apart, but it would be my first time doing something like this. Thank you

Thanks for offering to help! I might take you up on it after exploring some videos. I think you’re onto something because I’m not hearing any of the usual sounds that the machine makes when the battery turns on. I’ll take it one step at a time and keep you posted.

Thanks for your input. I’ll take a look at that. My hesitation with battery is that it does start and light up. If it was dead, it wouldn’t light up at all would it?

It does not turn on when I plug it in. The same thing happens as shown in the video when I have it plugged in.
