Mpc4500 Or Mpc5000 Coming Out This Year?

[JKIEYZ]

Roland Is Dropping A New Mv-8800 Workstation Soon(rolandus.com Watch The Clip On The Home Page) And Yamaha Is Droppin The Motif Xs Series Keyboard Line In April, I Wonder If Akai Is Working On A New Mpc.maybe A Mpc4500 Or Mpc 5000?

Anybody Got Any Info On What Akai Is Cooking Up Post It

^Really? Dang thats interesting... Id be suprised if they dropped some new hardware so soon after releasing the 2500.That was, what, 2 years ago? They are still getting kinks worked out of that so Id be raising eyebrows if they dropped a 3500 right now...

5000 in action?

 

[Ash Holmz]

the 5000 really was supposed to be the 3500 and thats fact ... i saw a screen shot of one of parameters on the 5000 and it said mpc 3500 lol.... no lie ... it was on the mpc forums i will try and find the pic again..

edit found it :::;

 

[Relic]

they should have kept it as that, it is more of a 3500, a 5000 makes you think its gonna be waaaay better than the 4000

 

[thedreampolice]

the 5000 is WAAAAAAYY better than the 4000

 

[Ash Holmz]

... here we go again ... how exactly did u come to this conclusion again?

 

[Ash Holmz]

mpc are great sequencers.... and ok samplers ... the 5000 talks alot but it aint sayin nothing. of all the things that are not included on the 5000 that should have been... i would say leaving out aksys is the number one dumbass thing they did... that feature alone makes the mpc 4000 so much more flexible and intergrateable(is that a word?) into the rest of my setup. the sequencing and sampling capabilities of the 5000 are weaker than the 4k ... bottom line end of story.... i dont need to hear about how an 8 track recorder or thin synth is gonna boost its usefulness because its not.

 

[thedreampolice]

lol, like I said Reason is WAAAAAAAAY better than the MPC

 

[Relic]

but how is the 5000 better than the 4000?

lmao...it's all a "silly ass" argument/disagreement what ever you want to call it. Those who have the 2500 think they have the MPC mecca, those who have the 4k think they do. You got the die hard 3k owners who would kill yo mama if you said they didn't have the best MPC ever made ( they may have a point, it's the only one that was re-released because of user demand ), I have a 2k and I'm satisfied with it.

Guess what? AT THE END OF THE DAY THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS. Neither makes your finger tipS platinum or make you the next "SUPER PRODUCER".

p.s. the people over at AKAI have a vast research department and I'm sure they did their homework. I don't think they're in the business of putting out gear that the consumer hasn't called for. Evidently those consumers and loonnnnngggg time users of the MPC put these new features on there wish list and therefore AKAI put out the product that they wanted. I don't think AKAI puts to much thought into users like me who will probably never upgrade to the latest MPC. Mine does what I need it to do at this time and for what it doesn't, there are "better" software programs that are less expensive that do.

You are sooooo right...

So that settles it Reason is better.
