So how are the FX on the MPC 1000? Can you have a lot of different fx on different sounds at once?

@aikighost You can have two FX at a time, and every track has it's own send level. I use the thirdparty software JJOS2XL and i dont know anything about the Akai sh!t software :-P

@kolakube123 Well, if people like to use their computer for music that's cool by me. I have tried to make music on the computer but felt that i was loosing my inspiration (hard to explain). Hardware is for music making and software is for music stealing ;-)

@aikighost Well, the rythm is clearly old skool electro (not the modern 4/4 BD stuff that sounds almost as minimal techno), bu who cares the MPC can probably do techno just as good ;-)

[aikighost]

@SLagerZahne Id probably call it acid techno to be honest.

@PerseusTraxx

Yeah I remember that. My S1000 / S3000XL both had around 4 to 6 waveforms built in. In honesty I never really use the waveforms that much. After watching this maybe I should have.

One of my mates writes deep house using only his MPC 2000 XL to sequence with. I sequence Goa / Psy trance on my 2500.

Like you say, It always gets me too how Hip Hop producers make up 95+% of users. This is the best hardware sequencer ever made.

In my honest view, the MPC is the hardware equivalent to Ableton Live but miles more fun!

Computers are for facebook, youtube, ebay, banking, uni work etc. I just cannot use the same device for something so expressive as music also

@kolakube123 Thanks, it was only done because i think that it can do so much more than hip hop ;-)

[kolakube123]

Great stuff!
