Technical questions for the MPC2000xl and the MPC2000
By beatBOXed Sat Nov 24, 2007 9:03 pm
This is my first time posting in the forum, so I will try not to sound like an a$$hat....

I am primarily a DJ so the discovery of the MPC series is a huge addition to my abilities as a musician. I love to sample and cut my own records but I am having differen't thoughts on how to save my samples and sequences. For the most part I have been saving my stuff on some old floppys that I had but I was looking to upgrade my setup. Please tell me if any of these ideas are better than another and why...

USB/SCSI floppys respectively

SCSI CD-ROM

ZIP drives (which I have never used, so pretty clueless)

I have seen a lot of posts about specific setups, but can you experts clue me into which one I should go with...Thanks a ton

BTW I have a 2000 non XL

U got da old G like me. HA HA But uh ne ways I still use floppies. But da best media to save to is CF Cards. U can get a CF Reader for the 2k but its gonna be External and also they are costly. So i recommend checking out an External SCSI Zip drive or Hard drive. It will def hold alot more than floppies.
