Question For all owners of an MPC 2500

Fantom X is dope as hell. Different then the MPC 2500 all together.
I had a Fantom X but sold it and bought a xr rack. But THe fantom was no joke though if you want a sick ass workstaion with nice effects and a ARP.
The seq is kind of clunky but usable for sure. And the fantom editor is awsome.

my 2 cents.

I also agree that the Fantom X is one of the best machines I have ever had the pleasure of using.

I have never had any problems with the sequencer and actually think it is pretty top notch!

But I been sequencing with Keyboards since I started producing, so I could be bias.

The Fantom X is no more 'dope' than any of the other workstations out there.

But this is a thread about the MPC. None of the keyboard workstations in that Fantoms price range has a MIDI sequencer as powerful as any MPC. That is why it is collecting dust in my studio.

I can't let it go now because it is being used for motivation. As soon as I talked about getting rid of it, both of my kids started using it more. So, I will give them another month or so...no use...it goes.

aside from all the bugs.... it's the tightest mpc i've owned. now if they could just fix that damnn .aps and .seq file thing i'd be a happy camper. :idea:

Fix?? I don't think it is broken...more like it is not supported.
