I'm gonna "rationalize it" sometime because I can't be bothered to surf thru 1000 open hihats everytime I look for a sample... they are nice but they are waaaaay to much for me, i need to clean up.

i like that my studio neighbour bought battery 3 and let me copy the samples, which are really nice.

live is the master sending midiclock to the mpc w/13.5 ms delay compensation
