Post your views and questions about the Akai MPC2500

I have another post up but this is something I wanted a little more info on (if anyone can help).

So the 2500 has the fx settings, and i have a external mixer with 8 outs as well and of course ableton has it's range of compressors and other things to mix/master. Im not trying to over complicate things but the question I have is where should i keep my settings in the 2500 fx? I usually use the 4 band and/or compressor. Never went to school for audio/music engineer but if there's a consistent range where things should be i'd definitely appreciate it. boom bap/lofi sound. I just want to clean up the sound quality of my beats and get them to pop more with that warm sound to them.

a good example sound quality wise what im trying to achieve is a sound like this, im sure this is mix/mastered or cleaned up. I like the way i chop beats but i feel cleaning up the sound quality is really what im missing. Any help would be much appreciated.


p.s. - one thing i noticed is when i went from akai os to jjos it seemed like jjos really killed the overall sound quality akai os has BUT the workflow is a thousand times better. I was told "it's easy to fix in a DAW"
