too dark needs more light to see
is this the same for the 1000 too?
is hdm10 unit included with the mpc when you buy it? i’ve recently placed a bid on one from ebay but the seller has told me i need to buy one…
The MPC 2500 needs nothing to install the hard drive, though check specs to match the recommended list on Akai’s site(I’ve got an 80GB Travelstar). The 1000 needs a chassis (HDM-10).
how many sounds can the mpc 2500 load at one time?
thanx for posting this, i was considering installing an internal hd on my 2500. whats tha maximum size a 2500 can handle ? any limits?
Can you use a computer hard drive for the MPC2500??
Hello,
I just bought an MPC1000 to find out that it doesnt work at times. It sometimes freezes and the pads dont work. Does somebody know what the problem is or how can i fix it? and also is there a reset button on the MPC?
Thankyou, really appreciate it !
hello mathew
hold “erase” button while you turn on mpc,also i recommend that u load ur mpc whit jjos startup system, peace!!
Hi, I just purchased an MPC-1000 & wanted to know was the Travelstar Model: HTS541680J9SA00….? Because Microcenter dicounts these being that most people upgrade laptops over 120gb…
A laptop (2.5″) only.
I dont know what mine was, as it failed after a few uses. I have since left the HD bay empty.
thanks
ok whats all this about jjos or other OS? i know it stands for operating system but have no idea what they do or are used for on the mpc 2500. could you explain abit more detailed for noobs like me? and how it helps your mpc? thanks a million
PLEASE HELP!….for some reason my hard drive doesnt register.I did exactly what dude did on the video and when I go to save something on it ,it says “Disk Full”…does somebody have any suggestions???????
yo just delete it
and try it again it should work dats what i did
@SinisterReality420 format your hard drive
I didn’t tried it yet but i’m sure that you can install a HD which has more than 500GB because it’s connected to the USB bus, just like an external one. So i guess there’s only this 2TB limit, which many PC’s have because a bios doesn’t support more. Correct me if i’m wrong. Btw, i tried installing a second HD with an HP Multibay drive case instead of the internal CDR drive and it worked! Maybe i’ll post a vid when i get the chance to. Cheers!
