Has anyone seen MpcPgmMaker for the 2500. The website I found it on says it works with the 2000 and 3000. Has anyone had it work on a 2500?

Trial and Error sweetie. Learn to use it.

All u have to do is test it for yourself. Either its gonna work or its not gonna work.

If it doesnt work then u come here and get an solution/suggestion.(it maybe a work around)

You have the ability to try it yourself given that each program is downloadable(mpc editor is available on your computer for 30 days and Bluebox lasts forever.)

I use it with the 2500.. It can read and convert most media files like mp3, wav, aiff, snd, etc.. Bluebox only converts certain wav files.. Although, you can preset the volume, filters, tuning and play mode setting. If your chopping samples on Recycle, I would stick with Bluebox. Since I work with Dsp-Quatto, I have to convert the samples after I chop'em. The 2500 and Bluebox can not read wav files form DSP.

This reply is directly from the MPCPgmMaker website:
(The nice thing is there was no sarcasm they just answered the question. They must do this for a living.)

mpcpgmmaker doesn't create mpc2500 format .pgm, however mpc2500 reads 2000 format pgm. so, i haven't tested, but it should work ok.

thanks,
seishu

Seishu is a nice person! I love the MpcPgmMaker. The 2500 will read the 2000XL format. No problems here! :wink:
