Exchange tips and tricks for the Akai MPC4000

I have a friend in the same situation - I've got a 4000 and he's on the 2000xl. I think there's no problem with the format itself, but his collection is on floppy, so I presume he just needs to buy a USB floppy drive (el-cheapo) when he gets his 4000.

I was able to transfer songs from the 2000 XL just fine,but for some reason I couldnt properly get files from a regular 2000. :(

working on a song now that was organally made on a XL loaded fine via akaisys through scisi, everything is there exept the FX, the filters and envelopes needed a little tuning but just becouse of a personal prefrance, but overall its a very faithfull represantation of the my 4yrea old song in everyway .. I've heard somewhere that 16level tuning isn't always on spot, but so far its been all good..
