If I was you I wouldn't get too worked up about the factory samples.

Here are some that a guy made that are better and free: http://rockda500.us.to/

BTW: if you turn on the 500 with no card inserted there are some factory sounds inside that will load. You can also save those to your CF if you want to.

This (!), is not written in the manual for example. It is written that the mpc 500 just supports CF Card Type-II, up to 2GB

So, TFM seems to be wrong with that.

I was waching out for this information. Thanks

Well this may have been a change for the specs based on a bios update.

My best guess is that they officially only support up to 2gb and if you want to try something larger and it doesn't work then don't go complaining to Akai :P.

Anyway... good luck with whichever card(s) you decide to buy.
