I applaud your efforts and gusto but numark is not going to take heed to this at all, the mpc line as a whole is on the back burner for them, they'll get to it when they feel like getting to it, not when the customers need it.

Well I appreciate you applauding the efforts, but adding a picture and trying put off people isnt helping out. So either contribute or not its upto you.

Akai is the brand, whether backed by Numark or not. They will take heed if people are mature enough to put together some backing to all of the talk on this forum about the problems on the MPC 5000.

Its time to iron out the comments and put them into a well define list and then make this visible to Akai.

Why are they going to fix things that are not obvious not backed up. I work for a software company, and most bugs, issues need to be logged with steps on how to re-produce, so how about explaining how to re-produce the issue and give a description of the fault. This will give them something to work on.

Lets be grown up about this, and make a difference, who knows in 6 months we might have a new OS.

Excellent and thanks for your time. Lets make it happen.

If you think the "brand" akai, is the same akai that made the original mpc's your crazy, I wish you the best of luck, i'm just saying don't get your hopes up. As a former service rep for a large musical chain store, Akai's response to the basic customer is minimal at best. The ratio of pissed off people to happy people with regards to 5000 isn't enough to bother them, and i'm sure its still selling enough to reach what they originally projected it would.

I suggested this a while ago when I got the same response from Akai. They seem to have a meeting everyweek about bugreports etc. A memeber would collect all the bugs reported so far but didn't come through.

I just copy/paste my bugs/request list from time to time because they have to register it, but more people need to do that because Akai really thinks the 5000 is stable(fact!).

Good luck!

Coin up, can you post your bug-list here?

Coinup, thanks for your contribution and I understand your thoughts about Akai and the brand, but lets make them aware of the issues, but this time lets get this right.

What I suggest that we keep to a format, something like this below :-

Bug description :

Bug number :

Steps to reproduce :

Outcome of bug :

So if you can re-post your bug list and we can all work together to prove the issues with our own defined list.

Lets not get side tracked with whether Akai will listen or not, we have to make a decent proposal before anyone will admit or see fault.

If the community really thinks there are 'real' bugs lets make an effort to log them and make them visible.

Once we have a decent bug list in a structured way, I will then add these to the facebook page.

Lets stay positive and provide proof.

Why waste time. AKAI doesnt seem interested in such a project as a new OS for an MPC. My 5k is no prob at all and never failed me. I've had other MPCs and have been making music for years (uhhh maybe a couple decades... oh boy). anyways the 5k is the joint in my opinion. if some forum can dictate to you what you should buy then idk what to say to you. if you want it and can afford it go buy it... on ebay even... my dude got one brand new from ebay for 1200. so find a deal and give it a chance for a few months or more. if u dont like it sell it to the next man. using it is the only way to know if you like it or dislike or agree or disagree with all the conflicting opinions. But OS3 dont hold your breath unless somebody says its useful to dock an ipad or something to it Akai aint bout to do it.

It amazing what happens when people get together. Companies and nations will listen. Don't you see how much power facebook has?

For the most part I think the glitches get confused with the bugs. I also think maybe the quality control or design of the hardware is effecting the OS. Were trying to sort that out. Why dont you try recreating some of the bugs listed? It would help us out. Its time for science, theres plenty of opinions on the internet.

Later today when I go in the studio im going to try to recreate some of the bugs listed.

Don't forget about improvements! The 5000 hasn't reached it's potential and Akai needs to know that again and again.....

Hello,

I have a complain which I would like to be registered and discussed at the weekley dev. meeting.

It's about the MPC series especially the so called flagship MPC5000 and the lack of support.

We, at www.mpc-forums.com/, are very concerned about the future of the MPC. There are a variety of complains about the OS2.0. One of them it not being stable enough yet and often causes crashes which lead to potentiel buyers not buying the MPC 5000, a decrease in loyalty from the users and increase in frustration. I believe Akai is assuming that the MPC5000 is stable without any problems which is contrary to the users believe.

For a while now the MPC2500 is very popular and for most buers the first choice over the MPC5000. Not because of the OS2.0, but because of the JJOS that has a better and more logic workflow.

We would really like to know what the future plans are for the MPC5000 and if it's possible to make the OS of the MPC5000 open source if you continue abandoning the MPC5000.

We have payed a lot for the flagship of the MPC and really wish an updateted OS to get the most of the MPC5000. Also we would like more involvement in the forum and support from the devs of Akai like many other companies do.

Please listen to hour voices and make the MPC5000 really worth buying.

Best regards,


Ryan Meursing






I've just send this email to Akai. I'm dutch so my english is not that well. I suggest that everybody starts to spam Akai with these kind of complaints. Out of desperation I've emailed Just Blaze to give the 5000 another look and report about it. It seems that Akai does listen to his voice hence OS2.0........

WOW, do what you feel compelled to do. Anyways I think Gonche is on the right track. Lets try to find out exactly what doesnt work. I gone through a few bugs already on the list. I will post my results a little later. Why dont you try to recreate a few of the bugs?

Nice one and respect to both of you... maybe when you have some bugs we can post them in the format talked about previous on the Facebook page. This way it will start to make others think about what they have issues with and hopefully they will contribute and follow.

Have a good weekend...

i would love to see on os3 a master send channel on the mixer so i can add filter for instance over all the tracks

You know theres an eq and compressor on the master bus.
