For what it's worth, it's not just you. I had the same experience with this same machine. I used Logic and other DAWs for many years, and used to be super-productive with them while running a professional recording studio in NYC. But even after all the AKAI MPC manuals, 3rd-party manual/"Bible", and videos, I just never could get used to the mindset of the AKAI MPC way. Sold it.
