Share your knowledge on these two classic MPCs

Anyone here use Vailixi? Whats the story with it, and the guy who made? I suppose it's no longer being mad, correct?

Is it a worthwhile upgrade? And is it completely impossible to find these days? :)

How exclusive :)

any wonderfully awesome features? I read about timing correct at new sub divisions. And is it true you can access an entire 780 megs on a zip/flash card/storage medium?

im not too sure of the specifics...

the mansell-labs website is back up and can help with the specs and functions... but i discourage you from placing any orders before hearing something from Rohan... :)

-Auto truncate soft start and end points simultaneously in trim mode

-edit samples while sequencer is playing

-copy zone to sound (instead of temp)

-SND playback stops on sequencer STOP (optional)

-stay in EDIT SND on PLAY/PLAY START (optional)

-stay in MIXER on PLAY/PLAY START (optional)

-lets you format your zip or cf so when you mount it on a computer, all partitions can be seen

+more...

definitely worth getting if you can find an mpc with it installed.

Already happening, that situation had "inevitable" written all over it.

I assume that love is being spread in an 'illegal' way?

My Vailixi EPROM's are genuine, that's all I can tell you. When you start seeing MPC3000's with Vailixi booting with the wrong serial numbers you'll know what time it is.

Yeah and those people(and their MPC3000 serial number) who spread their 3.50 EPROM's is **** on future support from Rohan if/when he returns. Rohan maybe M.I.A. but he´s not stupid, that´s why he asked for and encoded the serial number of every customers MPC3000 in the code of every EPROM he sold.

no reason to keep the faith at this point imo. there are quite a few willing to pay for this OS, and some already have payed it seems... :?


its really too bad for rohan, and his customers... but rohan isnt immune from the reality he has willingly or unwillingly created... :|


hopefully the stars will align, righteousness will prevail, rohan will get his due compensation, and the community will enjoy access to the fruits of his hard work one day... but life has shown me that that is rarely how things work on this planet... :twisted:

Yeah know what you mean, just spreading info.
My bet is Rohan is doing time and can´t respond from where he´s at!

It is not those people that are s**ting on future support, it is Rohan that is s**ting on customers/MPC owners.

It is possible that the ROMs get copied from MPCs that have been sold on by the original Vailixi purchaser, and so might have nothing to do with the person that originally purchased the OS from Rohan.

If I do happen to find the copied ROM code, I will use it, and will pay Rohan for it if he ever reappears, I just want the additional features, badly!

If someone can keep the website paid for and running, and can dispute claims for refunds with PayPal, then they can respond and sort out this s**t.

I dont think anyone gives a shit about receiving support at this point.

So someone is responding/disputing claims via PayPal? Did not know that!
