4000 features not on the 3000

Did a search but can't find these answers. Looking to purchase a 4000 but have some questions on the sequencer. 1. Can I punch in by pressing record or overdub while the sequencer is playing? Not like the 3000 that I have to stop it and press overdub again? 2. Can I change the 960 ppqns to less ppqns to match those of the 3000 which I think are 96 ppqns? 3. Can I change timing correct while the sequence is playing? 4. Does the 80gb harddrive come standard? 5. Does it have the feature of the 2000 and the newer MPCs that let you extend the end of the sample "the loop feature" the SP1200 also had this as well as the ASR10. This is a main feature that I hated that the 3000 didn't have, I always use this especially to extend a 1 second string or voice to let it carry out smoothly for the the next 4 bars or so. Your answers would be greatly appreciated and would help me determine on purchasing this cookie monster

First, dowload the reference manual and the addendums at AKAIPRO!


Nevertheless:
1) yep!

2) Here are your possibilities in the Timing Correct field:
1/8...........................8th note (minimum unit 480 ticks)
1/8[3] ......................8th note triplets (minimum unit 320 ticks)
1/16.........................16th note (minimum unit 240 ticks)
1/16[3] ....................16th note triplets (minimum unit 160 ticks)
1/32.........................32nd note (minimum unit 120 ticks)
1/32[3] ....................32nd note triplets (minimum unit 80 ticks)
1/64.........................64th note (minimum unit 60 ticks)
1/64[3] ....................64th note triplets (minimum unit 40 ticks)
OFF[96]..................1/96th note resolution (minimum unit 10 ticks)
OFF ........................Timing correction will not be used (minimum unit 1 tick)
3) I don't know
4) I'm not so sure here. The Plus models used to be shipped with a 80GB hd.
5) If you are talking about playing samples up to the end while swapping to the next sequence or restarting the current sequence - yes, that should be working.

1.answered
2. same
3. yep
4. it comes with the blue one aka plus (but I dunno why it is called plus lol)
5. if u mean looping the region of a sample that will make infinite sample then yes that's totally possible. you simply go to sample page make a region that will be a loop and then change playing mode to loop.

Appreciate it guys, I'm sold any one looking to purchase a MPC 3000, I''m off to a 4000?

Well, buddy many users of MPC's was thinking about exchanging 4K to a 3K, even me. I think a lot of other MPC models users would want to exchange their model with 3K, but I just think everybody belives there's something magic about it. 4K pretty hard at start but when you get use to it's **** beast. Go on for a 4K you won't regret it. I've also made a switch, but mine previous model was 1K.
4K>3K>1K imo.
