Because there is NOWHERE I can't use this thing. And it looks like it could fit in the front pocket of a hoodie. :D

CPU, I'm dying for those screen shots/internal specs

If I can dump 24/48K into this thing


snoooowball's chance in hell
but it would be awesome.

unfortunately it would totally destroy its compatabilities w/ all other mpcs but the 4000.
I know, right. :( Slim chances.

But nah, it wouldn't destroy it's comp. w/ the others.

Not at all

It would just have a global toggle between 16/44K, and 24/48K

Shit, just gimme 24/44K :D :D :D

So far so good. Runs on batteries, which is super cool...you can turn off the backlit screen to save battery life. 1 set of midi ins/outs. Left/Right Stereo outs. Same familiar akai layout.
Pretty cool!


COOL! YOU GET A WHITE MAN WITH 500!!!!!!!!!!
