You should be able to load up programs but not your all programs system files as the mpc 4000 uses multis. You can try to aksys to transfer your programs and samples from your computer to the 4k via a usb cable also.

you have to use translator to concert the program to another format.
Program's in the 2500 and 1000 cant be loaded withoutconverting them to AKP (akai s5000 format that the 4k can read)
It wil have the same note numbers etc.

Before that I had no luck converting some tracks I made at a friends house with a 2500
