I beleive there is something called eBay that sells JV expansion cards. I could be wrong though, dont qoute me.

I Had custom shelving built and I keep them all in the kitchen. I,ve always had to have a whole 'nother room for my vinyl.

damn. well, i'm new to the mpc thing so i just wanted to know how y'all go about copping your gear too. how do you decide? cuz the sh*t's expensive so i want to know if there are any methods y'all use when thinking about that next piece.

damn prospect. shit is pretty dope man.

thanks man

not pictured are my guitars and basses
I also have a portable rig consiting of a powerbook g4 and an oxygen 8 (for the plane rides)

doveski i bought my expansion for the 880 from sam ash, i got the hip hop one. i still cant figure out how to use it though since when i try to load one of the sounds to a bank on the module it never comes up. i think i paid like 200 but i wouldnt recommend it, i would get the orchestral joint or strings or something like that or mad records.
