Writing on CD-R

What does the writing say on the CD-R that is installed from the factory? I bought an MPC4000 from an individual and want to make sure it is from the factory. Thanks in advance.

Mine came wtih a whtte CD-RW , with NO writing on , other then the "Compact Disk" logo.
It's a 1 x write speed ...

Thanks Renegadebliss. This says "Plexwriter". Does anyone know if some of the MPC4000 went out with Plexwriter written on the CD-R?

Come on Y'all, people just viewing the thread and moving on. Does anyone have this writing on their CD-R? Someone please answer this for me. Thanks

mine came with a teac.

Have patience and someone who has knowledge of it might come along and answer up. I have played with a few 4k's and noticed all of them had Plextor (blue letters) drives and they've worked fine.

I just spoke with someone at VST and they told me the AKAI MPC4000 all ship with Plexwriters. So it came from the factory like that. I appreciate the responses.

The white MPC 4000 also shipped with TEAC CD R/RW drives.

Press LOAD and select the CD drive, press window, that will give you a pop up screen that will tell give the Name, Device, Vendor and version.

Like Lampdog said, Have Patience.

MINE CAME WITH A BLACK FACE TECH

mine came blank ... plugged a black plextor cdrw later on (guess 52x, 24x (or 32x - dunno), 52x ... burn speed is slower as it should be ... not really a problem and i think thats a limitation of the 4k and doesn't have anythin to do with the cdr your usin ... for the rest myone worx like a charme ...

generally i think u can use lotsa cheaper cdrs too whcih work just the same ... but i can't tell you any which i know work for sure ... and i never heard bout a plextor causin problems ... so if ya wanna save money i d try somethin else if ya wanna go the save way i d go with a plextor ... hth

Mine came blank also and I added a black Plexwriter 52x but I still havent used it to burn CDz...

I bought my MPC 4000 brand new, it's a blue one and it came with the PlexWriter 52/24/52A already installed. It writes discs at 52x, rewrites them at 24x and reads them at 52x. I'm so glad that Akai made this upgrade in the CD-ROM drive. I use Maxell 52x24x52 CD-R's and they work fine. I haven't tried any rewritable CD's yet. You can find compatible CD's to use here, on the PlexWriter 52/24/52A's Recommended Media List. Hope this helps.
