i read this review on this site http://www.futureproducers.com/userrevi ... /model/181

the soft rubber pads do excellent job at programming with dynamic drum hits, you can even control the sensitivity of the pads. I never had any mecanical problems, but being made from factory does not guarantee you that yours will have the same quality as mine does. I have heard couple of my friends saying their mpcs freeze a lot, and somehow mine does faster time stretching than theirs.......

i have same problem with freeze from time to time i have a 2000xlmcd and it happen alway on main screen or step. Also quantize and timestretch are really slow. Can be the ram modules?

what can be else anybody suggestion?

10 mins in the micro on defrost will solve all your problems.

Sorry about the bad joke. You have linked to user reviews, some which are completely useless. Have a look at sonicstate and sound on sound for some better reviews.

If you are using third party ram you can run into problems. If it is stock akai ram your mpc shouldn't freeze.
