hello, thank you!
the linked site that you know him. have only upgrade that costs $ 180. mpc Italian assistance offered me a kit cost € 30/40 (50 dollars approx). is not nothing but a cloth pad to put in place of the old. but in Italy there isn't now no

excuse my bad English

If you cannot find the individual pads then you may have to buy the kit ($180). It makes your MPC have the new pads.

thanks!
however, the pad that I speak on mpcstuff.com are better than the original pad. if I understand. and therefore cost much more. me enough to the originals. I wanted to see if there is a way to have them quickly.
Thank you for your answers, very courteous

Well yes they are better than the ones in the Blue MPC. I dont know if you can get them fast being that most places are out of stock on them. But maybe you find a set. Good luck man.

thanks again
Internet not found in any original pad site for ordering. I found only the kit but is too expensive for me.
I hope to be able to solve. thanks again.
if anyone knows where I can try to order them I would be grateful
hello

i have a new set of original pads. i want $60 for the whole set. you need to cover the shipping to italy though. we can work out the details through pm if you like.

your set works for AKAI mpc1000 BLUE?

The blue and the black models are the same. Some of the black models have the pad "upgrade" and some don't. Either way, you can install the original (defective) or the new (upgraded) pads in either of those models. The only difference is the color of the MPC.

I've taken my blue 1000, bought a black housing kit, grey buttons, knobs, slider caps, CF slot plate, and nobody would ever know it was once a blue model. I've done even more cosmetic changes with a blue LCD display and all blue LEDs. Soon I'll replace my pad rubber from the upgrade kit with black pads. Then finally I'll buy the wood sides for it. Some people think I'm crazy for it, but it doesn't matter to me. I love my MPC1000.

out of curiosity, you are the original parts AKAI where they recovered?
LunaticBastard i send you pm

this is ok for me?

Those are only the rubber pads, no electronics. And these are only rubber pads for the upgraded components.

i pulled these from my 1000 when i got it. they havent been used for more than a couple hours. and i didnt get your pm.
