What do you want in an AkSys update? So maybe Akai will fix it.

Ability to load multiple wavs at once. And the ability to use aksys without having to start up the MPC. than after making a program in aksys, someway save it to pc's HD and than drag n drop it in one time to the mpc.

that would be awesome! 8)

that's a feature I requested ages ago but doen't look as though it's possible....... I also think it owuld be good to be able to prepare loads of presets without the mpc hooked into it...

Sequence edit??

This is allready possible, dudes!! Just drag your sequence to pc and edit the MIDI file with PT, Logic or whatever.
Its easy! :)

I'l like to see the possibility of separate loop points so that track 1 is 8 bars and looping, track 2 is 3 bars and looping and so on. All independently.
Right now its almost impossible to do real polyrhythmic stuff unless you're reveiving midi from another sequencer.

Pixel, what do you mean by that?

I mean that each track can have an individual length, for example that track 1 is 3 bars long, track 2 is 4 bars long and so on.

If you could do that, you would get the possibility of having a track with 1-2-3 feeling and another track with 1-2-3-4 feeling for instance.

Yes, off course. But this is not related to Aksys in any way.. You're in the wrong thread. :)

more EQ options

other than that I would kinda stand behind that independant track loop, thats a hell of a nice feature on my Triton when you get used to it

Other than that Im not complaining at the moment Im pretty happy

lots of cats have mailed sean and Akai about this feature, they still havent implemented it in the os. I dont think theyre capable of creating such a feature

The only thing i want from AKAISYS is that the damn peace of sh1t doesnt crash all the time, and that the usb connection doesnt get lost.

When that day comes my life will be mutch easier

i would only like aksys to be better in bringin some sort of order into my 4k hd. currently its a mess of folders there and it already hurts having to watch at it - now imagine searchin for sounds ... meanwhile most important ones are in 2-3 folders ... but damn, there are 1279 others spread allover - so aksys please let me just drag my shit together ...
