Does anybody know the actual what brand name and model of the card reader that VST sells?

http://1226354.estore.networksolutionsdesign.com/Detail.bok?no=5

I emailed VST and they said "It's a specially made card reader for the AKAI MPC2000XL only to be sold by Virtual Sounds Technology." :x
I'm trying to surf the net and find one for my friends 2KXL. I think $149 is a bit steep for a card reader and a 128 Mb compact flash card with 60 Mb of samples. Especially since I got my Microtech 47b from eBay for $30.
Thanks for the info.


one.....

Why not look for one like you have? If not then just look at the link below. Dont worry about the one VST is offering just get one you have access to.

Note:VST is a business so expect prices like that. There service is guarenteed and you are for sure it works. Everything is new. Also thats the complete kit. So no ghetto riggin shit.

Thanks. I searched on eBay but none were on there. :shock:
My friend wanted the Microtech like mine since I already know how to install it and set it up. I guess he'll have to get one from another website.
Cheers for the info folks!

I think you might be looking for the IISDMC. Amtron.com is where I got mine.

If you have the available funds and you are satisfied with it I say go for it. At least you know u are guarenteed and not out in the wind when you purchase. Its the full kit and they also offer online or phone support.

No its not. You can buy it in bulks on Ebay or from online computer places or stores in your area.

That drive they offer comes with a 128mb card so you at least have something to start with.
