I recently had a mpc 2000 but broke on me, so i'm looking into getting another one soon, but i'm trying to decide if i should get the mpc 2000Xl or the mpc 2500??

Which of this two models would y'all recommend?

download the manuals at akaipro.com and get to reading homie....
Then factor the features and compare it to the price difference. There is a 2kxl mcd in the for sale section right now...
$900...How much could you get a 2500 for??

I'd recommend the MPC2000XL. They messed up the MPC2500 by putting some crazy flash-in-the-pan thing called U eSS Bee on there. :angry:

I can get an Mpc 2500 from my buddy at guitar center for 1400 is used but the guy that bought it returned like not even a day later, as for the mpc 2000Xl i got a guy that it's got one what looks to be in Mint condition with a Zip drive for 650..

What does your wallet and workflow say?

Will u be buying monitors and other gear later on? (money for later on)

Ask yourself some questions as well. (concerning your needs/wants)

Stop getting automatically offended when you see gold letters!

He was being over the top wit it, lol.

Which model is better, It's your choice, base it on what you need for your production.
Until you take charge of your decision making........
