Akai really let producers down by making the 5000 with only 44.1k/16 bit audio.
Especially when the 4000 has 24 bit & was made 5 years earlier!
That would be like Sony making a Playstation 4 that only worked in 64 bit (would you buy it?!)
EVERY type of sequencing software now works in 32 bit & 24 bit & I don't know ANY serious producer who still sequences in 16 bit in 2010 (obsolete technology).

And the MPC5000 is Akais answer to the MV-8800. I own the MV-8800 and the 4000. The MV blows the doors off the MPC4000. I never had a chance to play with a 5000 so I cant tell you if thats better or not. BUT if the 5000 has the same issues (Screen and pad probs) then the MV will still be better.
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! ?
At the age of 41 and had ALL Mpc's from 60 to 60 MK2 a 2000 and a 3000 you are perfectly right none of the mentioned come close to a 4000, it's insane, the 5000 is nukai not Akai!!
if you had that much trouble with the 500, you won't do very well on the 4000 or 5000. they are much more advanced. put the time in to read the manual. you have to be mad patient
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
um i may sound like i shouldn't be here but i'm just kinda starting to get into samplers, only really cos of craig in slipknot, but any1 mind telling me like a lil bit of a tour around them? and like the best model etc? thnx =)
u better watch how you talk to your father lil kid..no one is saying you gotta buy a mac and ableton..obviously the kid has a computer all he needs is ableton ,pro tools or reason. no one cares what you say cuz you use Fruity loops and your beats sound like 2 year olds made them.
mv is way better than 5000.... if u cant afford 8800 go wit 8000 - the only difference is the color screen. i got an mpc 1k but my friends use those mv's....nasty machines man... RZA got one too lol
damn dude. Most important rule of production... It isnt what you use, its how you use what you have. You can have a million dollar setup but if you suck.... that million was wasted. Some of the best beatmakers I know use FL.
yea just like how i can make a better beat than you with a stick and a garbage can JK BUT FOR REAL checkmy stats before you try to school me cuz i does this!. I wasn't knockin FL.. i was replyin to the kid who hated on my comment..who was a fag who made shit beats with FL...i started with FL..and still have it in the Lab..but i got love fore it!
I sold mine and got an MPC 2000 again, because of the fatter sound. Less features, of course, but at the end of the day the sound is what matters in this game.
Damn Right, this thing is a disgrace...what he doesnt say is what it lacks lol The 4000 was the last great MPC made, can't wait to see the new Linn Drum kick Akai's ass
bottom line. if you make bad beats on the MPC60, the MPC1000, or the MPC2500, then most likely you'll make bad beats on the 5000 no matter what "new" features it has.
umm actually dude not everyone does use electric sounds these days, some people are actually trying to keep the old school sounds alive!!!! instead of having every song sounding the same!!!!!!!!!
read Don't laugh at this! Just do it Start thinking something you really really want cause this is astounding the person that sent this to me said their wish came true 10 mins after they read the mail so I thought what the heck You have just been visited by DrSuess's Cat in the Hat. He will grant you one wish Make your wish when the count down is over 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 MAKE A WISH Send this to 10 videos within the hour you read this. If you do, your wish will come true
and its an 8 track analog recorder........where do you load the tape in? He forgot to mention another difference between the 4000 and this...lack of multisampling.
The MPC-5000 ships with 52 known bugs. At least 3 of them will crash the machine. An update is available but the customer is not informed of this or that the machine will be useless when they buy it for $2500.
Is the synth 24-bit 96khz when in 96khz mode or did they drop that whole Professional thing, going from Akai to Akai Professional and back to just Akai again?
HAHAHA @ STUPID MOTHERFUCKER NOT KNOWING WHAT TO SAY WHEN ASKED ABOUT THE DIFFERENCES FROM THE 4000 PLUS. He changes the subject to the synth (which the loser already said once) and lies about the 5000 having all the features of the 4000. Shit makes me sick.
you guys are missing some MAJOR points... I've been dreaming of the day when you could group tracks and use a mute function for an entire group of tracks at the same time on the MPC. I also like to keep the beat going while i audition sounds without stopping the beat. Not to mention being able to automate the fx, tracks, mutes..AND I CAN NOW FINALLY MIX ON A SET OF MIXER TRACKS WITHOUT HAVING TO FIND THE DAMN PAD SOUND!!! THE MORE I WATCH THIS THE BETTER IT GETS!!!
the built in synth is weedy and crap sounding. it sounds more like a cheesy budget softsynth, they should stick to what they do best instead of asking people to pay for a bad attempt at a synth when we really just want a sampler!!
Is the MV8800 any different from the MPC5000. Maybe Roland should try tossing all features of the new Fantom G inside the MV line including the screen then maybe they would pull me from my laptop.
The Mp 4000 will kill any MV,sh!t any MP really the MV has some cool features but the most important thing which iz the groove, hands down goes to the MP and they all have a great feeling groove...
doesn't have "All the same features that the 4000 has" In this day in age how can you upgrade in specs and downgrade the RAM...lol....just to name 1 difference
IF your new in the GROOVE BOXES.. Get a Roland MV-8800 or The AKAI MPC-2500 still....cause these both Machine are still industry standard to this date, and were in 2008 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AKAI !!! The ROLAND MV-8800 still is Putting the presure on AKAI... Sorry its looks nice but its a DUNCE at this point with people using there GROOVE BOXES with there LAPTOP..... AKAI get with the PROGRAM... the MPC-5000 Should of come out in 2002. This unit way to late to come out. I still think also for the price the AKAI MPC-2500 is still good.
Looks alot like my Roland MC-909 and the Roland MC-909 can handle its RAM MAX like 256MB... Then the AKAI MPC-5000 MAX in RAM is 192MB.....PLUS THE ARP AND SYNTH in the MC-909 ARE STILL GREAT. I chk the INFO on the AKIA MPC-5000... its just a CUT DOWN version of there BIGER BAD BOY AKAI MPC-4000 Plus....and its MAX RAM is 512MB.... ROLAND DID THE SAME CRAP with there GROOVE BOX MC-808, Which is a CUT DOWN VERSION of the ROLAND MC-909
