What do people generally feel about them? I'm thinking of getting a set because my fingers keep hurting after my mpc sessions... more sensitivity would be really useful for me. But are they really worth it? I would have to pay about £20.00 ($35.00) to get them shipped to Britain. The electrical tape fix is probably just as good right? But is it more hassle with getting the sizes right and making sure they don't overlap etc. and then having all that sticky stuff inside your mpc

And what kind of cork are the corx? It can't be wine cork cork, can it? That would crumble after a while surely? is it more like hard bathroom style cork instead?

argh dont know what to do.

Thanks for any advice

i just recently performed a pad upgrade on my mpc 1000 (blue).
i ordered the corx along with the upgrade and i think they work real good.


super sensitive and responsive and its gonna do exactly what its says it does..


if ur fingers are hurting then u might have some dead pads n need the pad upgrade b4 u get the corx...i got everything with a free color upgrade for 200 flat.

and u can rub the pad and get a response..

the texture of the corx wont break..its like almost rubbery and the adhesive is strong. they should last at least 10 years easy...

hope this helps n check out my site n follow
