I wish I had an NDA...

Nah... it's at least *pretty* easy to guess at an XL around the corner... a variant of the One+ dropping... and we still got the Keys to be updated.

The only two things I can only speculate on would be a Force v2 (possible... but... I think we've seen the evolution into the new MPC Line with Pro Pack)... and an MPC Mini... which if it became a thing I could go either way with... a traditional screen would be too big... using an external display like your phone is annoying (see OP-Z)... and a tiny display such as the MPC 500... also annoying.

So I think the XL is clearly coming rapidly... and what's next... we'll just have to wait for. Every major release does seem to upset the prices of previously released hardware in general though... so *fingers crossed* for those who are holding out for the price dips on Reverb/Ebay/etc...

''am sure tutor is good, cos recently the site went offline and presumably he would have had to make arrangements to get that resolved.

but if u want tutor back, just start talking bout the mpc live mini, am sure he will pop back up to rebuke dat.

I was joking with Jpeg from he kept saying that about 3.0. I don't want a Mini, nor do I know, how the people who want it, expect it to look. It'd be nice if they can effectively pull it off.

I was ultimately proven correct on 3.0; the mini if it comes will look as described by the dude who orginally started rumour think of live meets mpc500

I meant to ask about MPCe.

With Live3 I thought there would be more interested in this new major feature. Is there anyone around known to for using the MPCe pads to make some new type of music?


what makes u think the point of the pads is to make a new type of music? the pads are a tool, the pads feel less rigid and more responsive.

The new pads allow more performance options and that is beneficial in of itself

just cos u dont like an opinion that dont make it weird; u fools got triggered when i kept speaking on MPC3, then it got confirmed and u dudes was mute.

than u lot also got triggered by mpc mini talk, even tho I acknowledged that it was speculative, and I like speculating, but regardless if u dont like simply ignore.

Also aint no hounding, "ur ants to me /like grandma's sister/ u lil insects fux will get crushed"
