Funny you say this LOL Cause I don't want their software, they can keep it, I wish they would just sell me the X hardware so I can be done with it. lol I have Reason 9 and Studio One 3 as my DAWS of choice and they freakin Rock!!!!

Plus Ima make my MPCX rock with Reason 9, it's going to be off the dam chain the way Ima rock!

Yeah I bet a lot of people who will be buying Live/X will be buying it for the standalone capabilities.
But it will be nice to give it some polish AFTER finishing the song in standalone mode.

Goddamn I cant wait for the day have the X.

Hhahaahaaa ctfu lol Yo, I know they are, its for the stand alone mostly, some just wanna blow some cash and think it looks sexy LOL I am definitely getting it for the stand alone, I don't really wanna talk about latency and jitters and quantizing no more its a worn out topic and I know what I need in MY studio.

Man who you telling, I can't sleep at night thinking about that dam thing LOL hahah Dam Akai lol

I kid you not, in my dream the other night, I threw my Touch thru the window

Hi guys, i just put in a preorder for a MPC X. This machine looks like the one to get for my use. I asked the store where i also got my Ren. From. They told me that they called the Scandinavian distributor. And the X is a little delayed. But the first shipment of these machines in scandaniva are expected between 25 feb- 5 march. Can this be legit? Are not this units showing up with a later date of shipments on other websites? Me personally i dont expect it this soon. But i hope it drops allready now. Cause i cant wait

It must be correct. UK will get the machines first before US no doubt.

I hope so because I've got the money burning a hole in my pocket right now!

I remember the Ren released first in the US, so I guess its a change of favortism

Even the early version of 2.0 probably won't, as Pete confirmed on Twitter it has not been addressed.
A crying shame.[/quote]

Considering Fabfilter, Melda, Soundtoys, Slate, Softube... basically any quality mixing plugs have some degree of latency, I can say I will never mix a song in MPC. I'm still all in on the Live, but I really think their software team is not up to par with the competition. They've had over 4 years to figure this out. If they give me PDC, sidechain, and portamento, I could see myself doing a ton of work in MPC 2.0.[/quote]

Not having PDC is unforgivable in 2017…that must be said.
I'd love to see Akai fix that before releasing the software…not a good look if they don't fix it AND they have been aware of it...not a professional move.[/quote][/quote]





I know these guys have been working hard, but it is lame that this has not been addressed. After all this time...... I don't consider this a pro piece of software until it has plug-in delay compensation. Most likely will skip the upgrade for my Ren until it does. It would be a good sign if they at least committed to it in a future version.

Is there a list to what's new in the MPC 2.0 software?

Also, are the units ready to ship

1. I don't know just yet, sorry.
2. I don't believe they are ready to ship yet. I'd imagine Live will be around an April release, X may be May - but this is all still to be confirmed.
