  • I want one

  • In fact, it's actually a MPC3500 and the specs are pretty much an insult, because most of the specs are exactly like the MPC2500. They really dropped the ball on this one, a shame really..

see all

  • Fuck Maschine...I own a 5000 and 3000...Wouldnt trade either for a punk ass Maschine...but dont let the 5000 fool you...that bitch is full of bugs...

  • @cadabraa I co sign...I own a 5000 so I know exactly what you mean...

  • 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 & 24 bit, & I don't know ANY serious producers who still sequence in 16 bit in 2010 (obsolete technology).

    Make a MPC 5000XL with 24 bit !!

  • @Teknokeyz or you could just get a native instruments maschine with a decent laptop ..... just a thought. ( i considered getting an mpc 5000 or mv 8800 to upgrade from my current mpc setup ... then i found maschine.)

  • 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! ?

  • Why do you need MPK49 and not a normal midi keyboard? You have the pads on the mpc 5000

  • its not cheap and filmsy. faders and knobs are great, they move with good resistance. the mpc 5000 is made of solid dark blue steel and looks way better than my mpc 1000.

  • workflow und controllers are much better than on the 4000. but right on, it should have been named mpc 3500. dunno why they changed it at numark/akai. changes nothing from the 5000 being an adorable beast.

  • the 4000 is way better this was to be the top of the line model and cant even beat the one that came out in 02

  • what kind of CD-R drive can you use
