I see no reason that it would be different from the capabilities of the MPC Live & MPC X, which, like the FORCE, both share the 2GB ram limitation, but they convert imported samples up to 32bits, so it can get a little complex…
Well, if you consistently stick to just using a single bit rate for your ‘incoming’ samples, then we can say that the MPC Live/MPC X can load around 850MB of 24 bit samples into memory, or 565MB of 16 bit samples .
In real world terms, you’ll most likely have a mix of 16 bit and 24 bit samples, plus any audio you ‘create’ inside the MPC, such as audio tracks, sampled audio in the SAMPLER screen or sample chops and sample copies created within the MPC Software will all be 32 bit floating point, so in which case it would be better to state that the MPC Live and MPC X can store around 53 minutes of stereo audio in memory , or 106 minutes of mono audio . Remember this assumes everything is at a 44.1kHz samplerate.
