Im glad I read this cause I had an feeling something like this was gonna happen to me. Like im gonna be exspecting my beats to come out like I want them as soon as get the system (this will be my first 'owned' MPC) but I know im gonna have to learn the ins and outs of the mpc before im able to get a stable workflow.

Without a doubt dawg. You're gonna get frustrated but just take it slow and soak in all the info on the manual and on this forum. A lot of people here have owned MPC's for years such as lampdog. Good peoplez here. I have already got the chopping/slicing down pat from the time I started this thread till now. The 5k is worth every penny IMO. Good luck bro. You're gonna thank me for posting this thread one day, maybe I saved you from selling/trading it like I was thinking about doing haha

Peace,

but for the record (and im not trying to sound insulting), but knowing the machinery, and techniques...even inside out, doesn't give talent.

For the record...I like his videos as well as his music...

Jahrome you back in Japan???

I know people who got rid of there 2000xl's back in the day, because they were so used to BOOTY LOOPS, They said when they turned on the MPC they could not get it to do NOTHING. I was LMBAO!

I still got my 2000XL.... had it for the last 10 years... my first MPC and its not going anywhere still

Yeah bro. When you cop a 5k, it would be cool to see you both collab on some new projects.

Jahrome still lives in the US I believe.

I am currently living in Tokyo for at least 4-5 years......I am hitting up Roppongi this weekend for sure (nothing to do with music).

I still don't understand what is going on with Akai/Numark and Japan. You can find every MPC in Japan but no MPC 5000

I know that it`s your wacky ass Jah. I told you that 5k is an British and American thing now. And according to Pro Audio Japan the 5k will arrive in Japan around the Fall season. Roppongi huh, married with two little ones and still chasing tail.

On the other hand Akai has changed. The world is getting closer to software.

Two little ones? Naw my son is bigger than me. As far as chasing tail...in the infamous words of BIG, "I don't chase em, I replace em..." Plus there are too many women in Japan looking for grown as men for me to be selfish and stay home

Pro Audio Japan could have least advertise the MPC 5K? I should throw one up on Yahoo Japan to see if I can spark some interest. Also, the world has been getting closer to software for years so that is nothing new.......

I got a few beats I did on the 5k up. Still can tell I need practice but I know once I learn it, there will be no end to my creation.

I've been trying to applied what I know from previous mpc's I have owned to the 5k and also what I have read in the manual and some stuff I just can't get pass like filters. Example: I have sample a bass and try to trim the click at the end and it just don't work. Like on the 4k you can edit and use "fade out" option on portion you don't want. For the most it's the little thing that get me all idled up.

Like I have learned the freezing that I'm sure we all have experienced, I've learned if you wait a few seconds or minute or two it will unfreeze, but for sure akai/numark have to fix this. I email them everytime I have a issue. Reason being I told to and I was assigned to (ATOMASELLO) to email all the bugs or problems that I have.
