Back up user data

- Connect your external drive to your MPC One.
- Press the Main button, then tap the Folder icon on the touchscreen.
- Select the Programs, Sequences, and samples you wish to back up, then press Save.
- Select your external drive located on the left side of the screen (Storage) and then press Save.
- After the transfer has been complete, tap the Eject icon on the screen and unplug your external storage device.
Importing user data
To import user data after performing a reset, connect the external drive your data is on, press the Browse button, tap Places, and then select the external drive.
Perform a factory reset
Once you’ve backed up your user data, you can then perform a factory reset of the MPC One. It’s a simple process, so follow these steps to reset the device.
- Hold the Shift button and press the Menu button to access the system preferences window.
- Press Info on the touchscreen, then press the Reset button. The unit will then restart.
