Browser; Browse - Akai MPC X User Manual

Browser

The Browser lets you navigate your MPC hardware's internal and external hard disks to load
samples, sequences, songs, etc. Using filter buttons and user-definable folders, you can easily
adapt it to your preferred workflow. You can also audition (preview) your samples before loading
them.
Important: You can install an additional SATA drive in your MPC hardware, allowing for even more storage space.
See Appendix > SATA Drive Installation
Important: MPC X and MPC Live support read and write capability for exFAT, FAT32, NTFS, and EXT4 file systems
