Especially since the 1000 has it now and the 2500 will have it in March.If you're right, and they give the 5000 keygroups, MPC-4000 users still can't use their 24-bit, 96k Keygroups on the 5000 ?
4000 users can't even load our drum programs (16 or 24 bit), cause this "flagship" only has 4 banks... ...we got 6 banks on our programs...
And we can't even load 1/2 as much programs as we can on the 4000, cause we got 512MB, I mean, my autoload is already 100MB+, and I'm super-picky with my autoload.
This 3500 has 960 PPQ, and that's great, maybe the FX don't suck this time? Great, but it's a joke in so many other dept, especially the sampler.
I doubt they could go far with any OS update for the 5000...
I predict it'll sell very few units, mostly to posers, and newbies, cause I know those converters won't sound thick and heavy like the 3000/60mk2, and I know ALL 4000 users are laughing at this.
Do you think Rodney Jerkins (mpc4000) is gonna change all his 24/96k keygroup programs, and grab this piece of sh!t ?
Do think Puffy (mpc4000) is gonna down-convert all those perfectly compressed BIG 24bit drums to 16bit, and hack two banks out of his programs, for a machine with the same or less(using FX) polyphony, and most definitely worse D/A converters ?
Do you think Timbo (2 mpc4000) is gonna do the same to all his programs for 16bit machines with worse converters?
Do you think anybody with a computer and soundcard needs to be able to track 2-tracks into an MPC with inferior 16-bit converters?
Who doesn't already have a sh!tty VA plug-in or module ?
IDK boss, I can't see anyone intelligent who owns a 1000/2500 w/ JJ os, with a computer buying this piece of trash for all that money.
