It is over 2 years since 2.00 was released, and we forgot to have a birthday party for it. No wait, 2 years it far too long between updates. Have they abandoned the MPC as a failure? Hopefully Numark don't read the crap on here, that would guarantee they drop the MPC line...

^ This guy probably hasent even made a beat on one and is talkin out his azz..... No problems here with my 5000. Haven't had one crash..... Maybe it's because I don't expect a piece of gear to make music.... It doesn't matter what MPC/equipment you use if your not creative.
(not a personal attack on you music wise.)

i know someone who had one. it's a nice machine (and massive) but i think the most sturdy mpc to date is still the 2000XL, even though i'm rocking the 2500 jjosxl...

i think it's funny to slate the 5000, it's the heretic of the mpc underworld. if yours has no bugs then my friend you are truly blessed.
