SO,I got this MPC 2000xl off Ebay from a guy who said it was fresh out the box never used. Got it home turned it on and tried to sample something. There was an apparent static sound only when recording a sound. And upon playing back the recorded sample. when the sound was being played through the machine no static. I have been doing audio for a long time and heard my fair share of records made on the 2000xl. I have some joints myself that were produced on it. Never heard this noise. I returned it to the guy for a refund and he started tripping saying I don't like grimey gritty rap. The most recent joint I made was with Planet Asia so he can **** off. But I wanted to know if anyone has heard such a claim that the 2000xl has a static crackle upon recording. This sound is not from the records but from the unit. I am not a dummy and know when something sounds off. I think the motherboard was faulty but need someone else's opinion. Let me know y'all! Peace
