Hey,
Almost two years ago, Akai made a press reslease
http://namm.harmony-central.com/WNAMM03 ... R/VZ8.html
for a VST audiounit plugin to control the mpc4000. I am glad that akai added the synth engine to the mpc line. I would like to use my mpc4000 as a programmable synth and I just wish that akai would market the synth capabilities in the future. BTW, the graphic for their app looks half assed. I guess I shouldn't b*tch, because aksys works for me right now, but I would like a VZ8 type app.
Is it me? Or am I stupid? I bought an mpc4000 - (not the only reason), because the ads said that it could stream large samples from the hard drive not ram. Now we have the ability to audition samples before we load them into ram. In akai's mind, does audition=streaming or will they implement a feature that allows you to trigger a large sample stream from the hard drive from within a sequence?
