Does the akai mpc 2500 os only sample in mono?

sorry to be asking this here.
the monk just got an mpc-2500, does the akai os only sample in mono or does it do stereo as well?

The 2500 can do both mono and stereo sampling.

Did you ever think to turn it around and check the inputs? Or maybe try sampling something?

this question CAN'T be serious. i swear some of you don't EVEN TRY...

does the 2500 come with inputs? or do you have to load samples from the built in 8-track cassette player?

Think Monk may be thinking of the fact that the older AkaiOS (1.24 and below?) doesn't allow you to chop stereo samples with chopshop.
Maybe?

really? I didn't know about that one.... that is one thing I never heard anyone mention. honestly, that is the closest thing that could make sense i think because that question is pretty ridiculous. Who spends a grand or 2 on a machine and never looked at the back to see a left and a right input?

@mr_debauch hey man.. love what you do with sampling your sounds from disused warehouses, etc. More peeps should be sampling out there in the field. Check how all the sounds were created for Star Wars. Light saber: a mic passing in front of a CRT to get that buzz, Landspeeder: The sound of a freeway recorded with a mic at one end of a long tube. S'all good stuff.

Off topic... but what the hell

oh, thanks man, I forgot about what was all posted on there.

I opened up a soundcloud a couple of weeks ago to post some remixes I submitted somewhere and what not... you can have a look if you like:

@jimmie, thanks so it's os 1.24 and prior.

@ the rest, slow down....

I'm having a similar problem. Yes I understand that it can sample in stereo, and it seems to sample in stereo for me (both levels are moving and it's set to record in stereo) but on sample playback, I'm only getting 1 channel. Any ideas?
