JJ is the ultimate OS, it's what kept me from using any other MPC, i possibly would've used the 2kxl if it wasn't for that OS.

Haha , the different look is nothing compared to the streamlined workflow... plus, there's a million other reasons why the akai os is crapped on by jj..

look into it, i HIGHLY recommend it.

btw, i was in a guuitar center the other day and was looking at a 2500. I forgot how different and goofy the screen looks compared to like os1..

Yeah working on the Akai OS is just hadicapping your abilities on the 2500.

Buy the JJOS ASAP; the Akai OS is a waste of time on the real...

At the moment Im still working on JJOS2 cuz its solid and the workflow is beautiful. :D

Hey sons, I think your mods to the 2500 are wicked. Very creative right there. I was thinking about getting mine darkened up a bit with all black buttons, sliders, data wheel, and pads. The two things I couldn't find parts for though were the black cursor buttons and the play/record buttons. I also see on mpcstuff that the F1 buttons are currently out of stock. I also wanted to throw in all black footswitch, and phones inputs like on the 5000, I can't find those either.
But man your mpc is dope.
