Q:
How do I download wav sounds for my computer or akai MPC?
A:
Please visit our
download test
page first and click our free test download files. You will need the password " test89 " to get the free sounds. There are 2 ways to download the zip file located at the bottom of the page. Either double click the file folder and hit download or click the file folder at the bottom of the page and hit the Down Arrow button to download the zip file. A series of small screens will appear on PC computers asking if you want to download the file and a screen will ask where you want to save it. For most users you will want to save this ZIP file to your desktop so you can find it easy. After you unzip the file you will find file folders with WAV files that you can import into your favorite software sampler or you can copy the wav folders to a compact flash card and load them directly into your MPC drum machine or other sampler and load the folders. This system also works on Macs and the zip folder should unzip itself onto the desktop. Your browser should be Flash and Java enabled to use your system. Try the free zip file before you buy! Thanks for shopping. If this sounds too confusing, you can always purchase from our regular store a physical compact flash card with the wav files already stored and ready to play.
We use paypal to process payments for purchased downloadable items.

Q:
I own an mpc-2000 and I'm having problems hearing the sounds, what's
wrong?
A:
Most mpc-2000 disks have one button loading. Our disks require
you load the ALL File (all songs & seq.) AND the PGM. File.
To do this: Insert the disk, load the ALL file, and turn the
dial 1 space clockwise till you see the PGM file. Load this
file next. If you see the SND files, you've gone too far.
