exceeding expectations

I really have to say man, I luv the mpc2500.

I just got it and I'd have to say its my favorite mpc yet. Ive owned 2 mpc2000xl and 1 mpc4000.

I like its feel better than the 4000. ALthough the 4000 has a shit load more features.........and in its own right the 4000 is the king....

The 2500 is a summary of exactly what I need from the 4000 and 2xl. The only thing I miss are the autochromatic and the data wheel..

Anyways, the 2500 exceeded my expectations. I recently sold my 4000 cause of my budget, (not cause I wanted to go to the 2500). Well, i just got the 2500 for 1500 because its what I could afford; i cant live without an mpc. I was expecting some sort of downgrade from the 4000, but seriously it feels like an upgrade. When I got my 4000 I still liked the 2xl overall feel better. I like the 2500 cause it keeps that 2xl feel, but brings it up to date.

I am not missing much from the 4000. Most of its features that are over the top of other mpcs, to be honest, I never really needed to use-granted I am mainly sampling vinyl, and using the occasional bass pgm, and connected with modules, so by no means did i ever need all the features. but for 1500 on the 2500, thats a **** deal. the 2500 has more bang for buck

just thought Id share

peace

SOUNDS dope, im hoping to pick one up this week sometime

got to agree, had mines for afew months now and just really got used to all the functions and commands and stuff, got it maxed out and loaded to the hilt with samples and stuff, and to be honest i think the machine is amazing, absolutely rock solid on the sequencer and stuff, ive got myself some heavy heavy drum programs put together and doesnt matter what kick n snare i run together with what samples but its defo sounding sick sick sick !!!!!!
also getting a really really good sound with the filters and stuff.
im well happy i opted to get my first mpc and the 2500 is my baby !!!!!!

nice 1
