Fuck You Wakai
basic lll akai turnd the mpc into fruity loops thats funny all hard wear gear is trying to be for liek computer base gear
Please, do us all a favour and shut up. You’re embarrassing yourself due to posting on something you know little of.
sounds like it could walk my dog aswell
You can do more with Live 7 Drum Racks,Battery 3 and the Trigger Finger.If you want to sample from a record just buy usb turntable.
MPCs look cool,thats it tho.
akai is fallin behind. this gimmicky synth peice of shit. i rock out on the 500 right now, but when i upgrade im really leanin towards an MV. i think roland is takin the cake right now. akai is going in the wrong direction. they really need to get this nearvous child the fuck outta there too and let somebody that can bang out some hiphop man the booth this shit is wack as hell. they are overcomplicatin this shit
This looks like pure unadulterated GARBAGE.
Akai have dropped the ball so badly with this one, there are like hundreds of software applications out there that surpass this:
-BATTERY 3
-ABLETON LIVE
-LOGIC 8
-FL STUDIO
-TRACKITION 3
-REASON 4
EVEN F***ING GARAGEBAND, WHICH IS FREE IS BETTER THAN THIS PILE OF JUNK.
AKAI are finished as a company.
just saw rza demo the mv88 at gc, it shits all over this, i cant beleive they didnt even put a vga out
One of the most over rated machines ever made.
Funny how everyone is droppin harsh comments. haha.
i was gonna get one but changed my mind plus there taking too long to release it in the stores, so i got a mv 8800 , they do the same thing , doesnt matter to me
I have no idea why everyone is slamming this thing. It appears to be a hell of a nice piece of hardware sampler… hell HD record plus a 20 voice va synth is a nice addition. Spend some time with this baby and I’m sure I would love it.
I wonder if I could get the drums to sample or bit reduce down to 8 bit or 12 bit. That’s one of the nice things I like about the MV
cheers
RS7000 for ever!!!
Just get your self a computer and be done with.
i’ve always loved the MPC series, but as always, i bet this new piece will cost a shitload of money and force me to keep upgrading my original MPC2000 i bought in ’98.
the 2500 is perfect for me…..only thing really new is the synth shit and more effects on the 5000
Can the MPC5k edit the EQ parameters on individual samples?
damn that shit is crazy i love the 5000 the 808 kick boom is crazy on this shit and the preset synths too appregiator is nice on this as well…i recommend the 5000 to anyway mpc owner….if they want an upgrade!!
Looks like a pretty interesting bit of kit. Not sure if they can redeem themselves after the 4000s abandonment though. And despite the joys of standalone devices like this, I do question it’s relevance these days with of DAW and sample-playback software. At least Roland are attempting to find ways cuddle it’s PC/MAC nemesis’ with the MV-series though.
i had mine a week ago tryed the mv to but the mpc 5000 is a beast ,brilliant synth but i make drum and bass.
but a VGA output on that sucker.
ahahaha i like the lady playing the keyboard n the back

i dunno what to get guys? which is more better and more Stable? an Mpc 4000? or Mpc 5000?
and i know this is a mad question but turning it on, how easy is it to get makin a beat?
cos ive used the 500 and i sent it back took me like 4 hours to assign a snare to 1 pad and i cudnt see the screeen, so advice on them 2 things would be great thanks! ?
@joeycarr333 get the MPC 2500 its all you need
