    thats the trick!what you cant sample your own shit? LOL – hey man all you had to do was do a little more research and you woulda saved some cash.Thats why i love the fact that i grew up dirt poor in the ghetto,cause you get real smart real quick! good luck tho -glad you got it.Now go to your room and make beats!

  • swerve19 says:

    Hey now at least i didn’t opt for the $200 dollars they would have charged if i got it installed when I got the thing. I was at least smart enought to check out ebay.

  • mikeygeneral says:

    yeah – you got that! I used to work in sam ash music years ago and i seen some people do some pretty weird things.but when you really look at it,it aint that bad. we are just talking about some memory here.its not like you baught a house or something.i just wish sometimes that akai would stop their bullshit and explain to the masses what they really have and what they are doing becouse at the end of they day consumers are being hurt and its not fair.

  • swerve19 says:

    Yeah, There’s bullshit everywhere there’s money. Greedy fucks.

  • feedphillipnow says:

    Yeah AKAI doesn’t make the ram, so easy and cheap to put it in yourself. I think it’s PC133 not 100 though. I might be off.

    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 !

  • koentjes says:
