Not gonna lie, I had ditched Akai for a few years now but it looks like theMPC X OS and the 2.0 software has matured to a level of usability I might be able to work with. I realize that here are still some bugs but I think I'm ready to upgrade, but before I do are there any former Ren users who had problems porting over projects? One of my concerns is that 24 bit audio files created with 1.94 software will create problems when updating to the X and 2.0 software when opening the Ren projects with the MPC 2.0 software using the MPC X as the controller for those projects. I've been reading that the X renders the 24 bit audio to 16 bit files? Can anyone chime in and let me know if it's safe to update to the X and subsequently the 2.0 (2.3) software. I'm working on really important (money-making) material and I can't risk losing time trying to fix stuff. Worse case scenario is a get the X, shelve it for a few months while the bugs get ironed out and continue to use the Ren and the 1.94 software until the X is ready for prime-time. Happy New year
