The same exact problem happened with a brand new MPC5000. I recieve the MPC In the middle of my 1st sequence and 12th track the machine froze on me. So, I send it back for another machine. That one froze on 1st sequence and 4track, the second time. the Akia sould place this product on RECALL. It dont serve it's propose. I also agree with Just Blaze.

Why buy a brand new MPC5000? buy a couple of used MPC’s.

MPC3000 for the sounds & Library $1000- Cant be Beat
MPC4000 for the programming power $1500- The Standard
Maybe a 2000xl w/Compactflash Option or MPC2500 $600 – $900

Any combo is better.
