MPC5000 reviews, bug reports and fellow user support on the most recent standalone, hardware MPC from Akai
By Btracks81 Wed Jan 27, 2010 5:39 pm
This forum makes the 5000 look so bad, and people wonder why Akai dont pay them no attention!! I've been reading some of the problems yall been having with it and wonder did Akai make a BAD batch? I actually sat down and tried to produce some of the bug/problems that yall been having and could not reproduce them!! The only bug that I've ran into was samples occasionally going out on tracks, but it doesnt seem to happen anymore(knock,knock). Im in the process of making videos showing proof of a good working 5000 :D :D

You can't tell all these people that have had problems to stop crying, just consider yourself lucky you're not 'crying' too!

My point is this "if it doesn't work for you(after u tried 2 troubleshoot) simply put it back in the box and return it for a new one or sell it and get another Mp that works for u". All Im saying is that this forum is full of negativity. If u was a Akai rep would u want to be in this forum and get flamed for problems that may not even exist in all the units if any? Give em some time to fix the situation, thats all!!

that's just it though, many mpc models were made and hit the shelves with big bugs right off the bat and people are tired of wanting a decent product and not getting it right off the shelf. Like purchasing testware which most people
would never agree too right off the bat. People just want something to work like it's supposed to from the get go, is that too much to ask for all the thousands of dollars on a machine?

So, of course there's negativity when it keeps on happening, model after model with little support in the form of upgrades and
bug fixes.

I completely understand and agree with that, but u got 2 realize that the 5000 is not their only product. They came with the v2 and people still wasnt satisfied. Damn near every MP has had its share of bugs, and people act like its not normal when they encounter bug on the NEWEST MPC ??? ???

There are many off us in this forum that think this is a great machine and stated so as fact in previous treads.

The thing is we a tired off responding to retards who positions is that the machine is crappy akai is the devil and the machine don’t work dump it in the trash.

We just stop posting and just listen and laugh and then go back to our studios turn it on and get to work what is the point off arguing over the internet.

I know some you come to the forum would like to see positive use off the MP5000 in here, hopefully some us who use the 5000 might just show you what it can do but some off us just say F it, I will just keep the secrets to our self’s what’s the point.

My advise for those curious about it if you can try it read the manual and dive deep into the functions you will be surprised at what it is capable off there are some bugs like any other machine but it is nothing that would prevent you from getting a lot more out off it than any other machine out there.

For those with issues and problems much respect, that is an issue to be concerned with, the machine should be returned, but that being said, for a lot off us the machine is working great with minor issues not so significant preventing us from getting great results.

just my 2 keep banging.

Lamp, wouldn't you agree that what I stated would be in reference to or another way of saying "very high expectations"?

Your words + the roll, I took it like it read.

"Like we live in a perfect world Lamp, come the **** on son (the roll part)"

That's how I read it. If you wanted it to be exact words just say so, lol.

LOL...I gotcha. Nah, I was making a statement pertaining to how some people think. I had to deal with folks like this at one point.

God forbid if there was a product out that didn't perform up to expectations, everybody who's in customer service & on the front lines are the ones that get the brunt of this sh*t.

But I made that statement because it somewhat hit home with me. I take it that from the views of some, perfection is almost like liberalism so to speak.
