Where? Not here.

Because they want a good laugh?
Because they are web surfing during a commercial break?
Mutl-tasking while also watching paint dry?
No one knows why.

I am a pro. I produced "Georgia" for Gucci Mane and a bunch of other amazing Hip-Hop/Rap moments.

I was one of your students buying all your DVDs and watching you from afar. That Guru/Gangstarr video you did was DOPE. Thank you for all you have done for me and my MPC trail of brutality Doc.

I was having a little joke and didn't know you were lurking :Sigh:

Now get at Tutor for saying "Not really sure what the purpose of that video is, other than to watch in real time, someone waiting for a zip file to download to their computer." - thus putting the battery in my back for light jokes while I wait in PAIN for this MPC 3.0 paint to dry.

:lol:

-------EDIT: LAMP! I SWEAR I wrote mine at the same time and did not see your words!!! Why are our words the same? I'm goin to hide under the desk and uncheck all the new iPhone updates! :o :!:

:shock: You mean to tell me, that this whole time I thought you was Red Man :Sigh:
I refuse to believe. :smh: :smh: :smh:


No but I did live around the corner (South Orange Ave & Munn) from Reggie, Rap along with Slang Ton(RIP) the greatest of The Outsidaz besides Digga/Zee. I was quoted in the Vibe and Source Magazine before.

I ripped every last person I battled in the 90s.

Does that help? Lemme go change my handle - It's time. :hdmi:

Red said "Prince Street Posse"?
I'm from Prince Street: building 212.......... BRICK CITY!

I am not aware of any updates to Mini D in this release, I do not know where he's getting that from. I've just checked the 'native' Mini D version (the one downloaded via 'Activate Plugins') and it's still running the same version 1.0.

To force an update of the native plugin, I deleted Mini-D from my disk, re-booted the MPC Software and then was given the option to re-download via 'Activate Plugins. It's still giving me v1.0.

The separate VST version of Mini D is currently 1.1.0, but that's not included as part of the MPC Software so is irrelevent to the latest 2.12.3 release. If you also have the VST/AU plugin on your system you'd have to update that manually by downloading it from the Air web site. But version 1.1.0 appears to be over a year old. To my knowledge there have been no recent changes to the Mini D plugin.

I'm also not sure why he's rescanning his VST/AU plugin folders when referencing the native Mini D plugin. This would have no bearing on the native plugins. Nor would it update any of your VST/AU plugins, all this does is register the existence of the plugin within the MPC environment (and subsequently whether or not the MPC will support using it). If you want to update a VST/AU plugin, you'll need to update through the plugin itself (or through the manufacturers management software, e.g. native access etc). Or manually from their web site etc.

Also, I'm not seeing that drop down bug he mentioned. He should report that direct to Akai along with his exact system specs.

Okay, so he's just admitted in the video comments that he messed up and his girl previously bought him Mini D without his knowledge. I thought he meant it was a new update to the existing Mini D, but he actually thought Akai were giving out Mini D for free.

Surely delete the video and re-upload a version that doesn't claim a free Mini D update?

To clarify, there is no MINI D update in this release.
