I’m a MPC3000 user for over twenty years and love the warmth the A/D converters produce when sampling.

My question is how does the MPC X sound compared to the 3000.

Does it have an “MPC3000” mode that they had on the renaissance?

The X/Live AD/DA Converters are dope,yet its transparent. What you sample is what you get.

Both though have MPC 3000 mode, SP1200 , and SP1200 Ring. The Ring you can really hear and ands that grit, you would love that. :-D :nod:

Exactly!
