short answer is NO.

why not just get one of the bigger MPC units?

1k doesn't have the hardware to do 8 out. Easy answer, no.

Complex and cryptic answer, yes, but it will most likely take MORE money than the unit is worth to do it which is not worth it anyway.

damn, i cant see the picture that distortedtekno left but im guessin its the retard crossin the finish line for the special olympics.

500 posts and still crossin the finish line first. congrats!



remember the 1000 has 6 outs do you really need the extra 2. what would you plan to do with these extra 2. are you using this live or for recording.

just to track out easier.....drums,samples and percussion all at once....''NEED'' is a strong word....it was just an idea....i thought there might be an upgrade available....

Only upgrade to hardware in this situation I think would be the next bigger mpc perhaps.

This Sh^ts deep. Lampdog would be giving the correct answer.

first you can upgrade to a DAW that lets you overdub. I think i used 1-4 outputs once when i thought it would save me sometime. but most of the beats have more than 8 samples so i have to overdub anyways. :?: :?: :(

Yeah, save up for the next mpc that will do what you need and then go for it.

you have 6 outputs not 4! do the math!

bounce to mono and 4 stereo outs become 8 mono outs.

The 4 individual outs are MONO.

The main out is 1 stereo.

You can (if you want) hard pan the mainouts left/right for an extra
2 x MONO channel operation.

Which brings you to 6 MONO outs. MAX.

SPDIF mirrors the mainouts so you can exclude that from the equation.
