the mpc 2000 xl

hi friends, i new to music making now, please can somebody tell me what a breakbeat is cos i not know, i want get mpc 2000 xl but not sure what sample to get, does it have cd crive?
thank you very much

please can somebody reply... thank you

the 2kxl does not have a cd drive. im not sure waht you mean by what sample to get. i sample from vinyl. but overall i think you will be very happy with the 2kxl. if you have a lot of money to spend and you want a cd drive you can get a 4000.

thank you for reply
i cant afford the 4000... i wish i could



"All CDs are in standard ISO9660 format and organised into folders which means are completely compatible with the MPC2000XL, MPC4000, the new MPC1000 and all PC and Mac software - just load into your CDROM drive, select the sounds you want and start creating your next track. "

how do you connect the MPC to the pc to get the sounds on mpc

thank you

the only way is to transfer the sounds from you r pc via floppy or zip disks. they have to be wav. or snd format tho. they cant be mp3. but if your trying to send a beat to the computer you just need a descent soundcard. i bought mine for 150 the audiophile 24/96

thank you, i getting a zip drive soon anyway.... thank you again
