it takes a while for the garbage collection to run and finish deleting everything. If you plug it into the Sample Utility while it runs, you can see the memory slowly emptying.
I ordered a near clone of this bag from Temu for only $10. Iāll post when I get it. Trying to see if the smaller 11ā one will fit with the Fanboy case on.
Ah that was it, thank you 
Iāve got this case, itās lovely and sturdy. Just plain happy!

Yes, and when connected to the sample tool the available space dial was jumping around values a bit for a little while. I think it must be a flash optimisation routine, as @tyrnnsrs said, that happens after erasing. Once I started loading in samples it settled down and correctly showed about 8mb in use.

I encountered this situation last month, but it appeared when I updated to 1.1.1. I tried various methods in the manual but couldnāt find a solution. Now itās been sent back to TE. . .

I think you mentioned on the forum that you already tried holding down [shift] + [erase] during power-up, will show FMT on the display. once after Iād try updating again visiting update utility 1, once on the page, hit the āuā key on your pc, it will force the upgrader to allow updating once more
The above are some recovery methods that @te-david told me. You can have a try. I hope they are useful.

@te-david just a āāquickāā question and reflexion: would it be possible to have a function that allows you to invert the shift +SOUND/EDIT functions? the same thing with the tempo loop button?.
Let me explain, this is only my opinion of course, I find that pressing sound and going directly to editing is more practical than using shift + sound. for my part I use the edit much more often than the sound menu, plus it happens to me, but maybe itās just me, to make the mistake of changing the sound thinking Iām in the edit menu (but of course unless you are careful), doing shift + sound allows you to think that you are in the sound menu.
The same thing can be applied to the tempo and loop function, in fact it seems more intuitive to me to loop by simply pressing the button and releasing it (a quick double click allowed you to lock then press again to unlock), than to do the manipulation shift+tempo each time to activate it. then doing shift + tempo to access the tempo would not be unpleasant. In more it sometimes seems obvious that by pressing FX again you exit the fx menu but noā¦ 
all this is only for convenience obviously
For the rest, I hope that resampling and recording the punch in effects in the scene will be possible and maybe a memory state ( two numbers in Mo ) indicator would be nice too. everything else has already been requested like ios app and project backup.
this product is really immediate and fun to play, we find a very good old school MPC workflow, very portable, these little recommendations could make it, in my opinion, much more immediate and autonomous.

Anyone got tips where to find samples of same quality as the factory samples?
Tried my samples from mars collection on ko2 but think all factory samples sound much betterā¦

all the factory sounds are from The Kount, so you could try his other sample packs on his web store or on splice
(i have pretty much every pack hes dropped and while they are good, personally i find the stock sounds on the 133 to be some of the best sounds ive heard from him)

The Kount rulz!
The pack Apple released for Logic by The Kount is 
!
i just received the thing. i had ordered it on the 22nd of november and they didnt send it until last week.
its one of the first runs, there is no protective thing around the fader. i hope it doesnt crap out.
i cannot believe they took away recording punch in effects. it was already there on po33 and is basically the selling point of the thing. put them tf back in.
i hope its a marketing thing or unfinished feature it is innnsane that i cant record punch in effects.
this machine couldve been a classic with resampling and recording punch in fx. i guess resampling is comingā¦
plz also recordable punch in fx david:)
