I’m receiving an MPC Live II in the mail today. Any tips or resources on getting started?

EDIT: Just made a first attempt at a tune: https://soundcloud.com/thomasbiesaart/learning-wav/s-QW3gkTQgRJM

Wait, then I think I misunderstood programs and tracks. As far as I can see I can only have 1 program in a track right?

Oh man..my bad. I don't know why I was thinking you were talking about something else. Now I see what you're saying. You probably do understand it and I'm over here just making it more confusing.

1 program in a track right?

Yep, one active program at a time per track. It does come in handy like when you can't decide which instrument you want playing a certain part. Just set up some options and then switch through them for comparison. Also, it's a nice ability for when you want to send the MIDI data of a track to an external device. For the most part though I'm keeping it 1:1.
