I love my MPC3000 believe me, The timing, the sound I get when sampling from records. The Huge library of sounds (I have all of the Bangin Beats Disks) BUT .The power supply gets hot as hell, The SCSI is sickening,have to press buttons extra hard

WHY Do I WANT the MPC2500?

The ease of use . Loading Sounds , chopping up loops, The LIVE feel, The machine has an energy to it. The expressiveness of the QLink (I fell in love RIGHT THERE)

Im not a Rich Dude, Not making money off music , Cant afford both.

SHOULD I Upgrade ? Just be happy I have MPC, Use Battery 2 for sounds

ps. Does anyone know FACTUALLY if the mpc2500 reads mpc3000 sounds & How?

these are the current spec on the 2500 as far as compatibility
Yo look through the 2500 forum your questions and curiosities will get answered.
