I’ve got a mpc500 for two weeks now.. cool little machine. I’m amazed of all the features it has. Also, now I understand why people love the mpc workflow so much, the normal sized MPC's will be even better I assume … I switched from NI Maschine because I got headaches from the confusing workflow… I tried it for 1,5 year and got really fed up…
So I’m glad I tried this small MPC. A couple of things irritate me slightly on the 500:
1. it is possible to move the end point of a sample before the start point: because of this the start point moves (very annoying) . This way I have to be really careful adjusting the end point otherwise I reset my start position. Is this normal?
On my s950.. the end point stops at the startpoint position..
2. The main outputs are noisy: I can hear a high pitched sound when I connect the MPC to a mixer and turn up the gain on the mixer. Also, when in the loading screens I hear a high pitched sound and all sort of beeps.. Is this normal?
