In this article, we will be learning how to quickly save samples in your MPC project.


1. Load a sample via Menu > Browser. The sample will appear in Sample Assign:


2. Go to Sample Edit and select your desired sample in the sample pool:




3. Once a sample has been selected, Press the Menu button > Save > Sample:




4. Save the sample to your desired location.

Tip: We recommended using an external drive rather than the MPC's Internal Drive for storage purposes.

Saving Samples via Main Mode:



1. Ensue that a drum program is loaded and a sample has been assigned to a pad:



2. Press the MPC pad which contains the sample you want to save:



3. In Main Mode, tap the pen icon in the drum program section on the right:



4. Tap Save current sample:


5. Save the sample to your desired location.


Tip: We recommended using an external drive rather than the MPC's Internal Drive for storage purposes.
