Akai MPC Akai MPC 1000 The Akai MPC 1000 is a great sampler in a line of great samplers. A MIDI sequencer with a drum sampler. And it also has pressure sensitive pads that feel great, making it easy to program beats and play samples. This can be used as a beat machine or a MIDI production studio. This can be considered the next model up the MPC chain from the MPC 500.
Akai MPC 500 The Akai MPC 500 is the little brother of the MPC lineup. It is a MIDI sequencer with a drum sampler. It is built for portability, and has a lot of features that fall in line with this. For example, it can be powered by AA batteries, and is small enough to fit easily into a backpack. It makes for a great sampling drum machine, and has the great feeling pads that the MPC machines are known for.

• mithun sir, I have one mpc 5000 and I need help please help me. The problem is, when I creat one seq.
In 2/4 or 3/4 time sig, first time when I creat it, its play like loop but when I save it in my harddisk and when I reload the same seq. It play only one bar. • N.Chandran Sir this problem. In all mpc5000. • Casey Sweten Welp.hows about a “compare//contrast” of functionality? I’ve used a small number or these on Mac as well as owning Chicken Systems’ Translator (a massive joke for a software, by the way). I use my MPC 1000 as a brain for my electronic drums.it takes FOREVER to set up all of the Velocity settings for a kit.
Any of these programs allow you to copy layer settings? Any of them help you set up mute groups any easier (hi-hat programing sucks!). Not to mention a form to place output routing! A constructive guide to the best software editor-per-intended-use would be amazing. I feel slightedjust because Akai made headway with the rap/hip-hop market, that means the rest of us can’t enjoy/participate in the innovation? Just say’n.::casio • Kenneth 'K-Phlx' Manning Hello, I’ve had my MPC-60 since 1992 and I still use it with my Ensoniq ASR-10.
But, I now have Logic Pro 9 and would like to know how to transfer my MPC-60 files from floppy to my DAW without having to track the full songs. I’ve purchased the new MPC Renaissance and would love to trigger my MPC-60 sounds in it as well as play the sequences in the Renaissance from my MPC-60 songs. Can you tell me what software I need to get to be able to do this?
My MPC-60 is running OS 3.10, and I use a Mac. Thanks in advance and take care. K • xpez2000 well you can do sys-ex file export through midi. Camfrog Pro Ipa Link. That might take awhile it will let you send your midi files and samples thought midi to your computer.takes a while Hmm its sounds like you want the recorded song midi files from the MPC Send those via Sys Ex send to your computer OR via floppy then hook up all of your gear with midi cables in and outs correctly then open your midi files in LOGIG assign the midi channels to play the right samples – just make sure its all the same now hit play Logic should be triggering all of your midi devices correctly. So the MPC have to be put into a receive mode as I recall • J are there any mpc editors for mac that allow you to hear your drum layering??
