That the reason, I returned the others and bought the MPC ONE. It's nice cute and has neat little features, that sits on the side table.Menco wrote:I think Akai implemented quite a lot of requests already.

As with any Product Released, we'll want More out of it. If They Designed The MPC XY with 32 outs, We'll want 64 outs lol. No matter what they offer on the Next Unit, We'll want More....For Free!!! smh
When they Implement Disk Streaming....I can Guarantee we'll want Disk Streaming in Two Directions! "Multi Timbural Disk Streaming" lol

Why doesn't the MPC X (Flagship) have Digital I/O, Word-clock, 4 MIDI IN and 8 MIDI OUT, Dante, 8 in & 16 out analog outputs, and 24 audio out over USB. This should be the starting point. Then select the CPU, RAM, GPU, Power Supply that can over support it. After that, build the Software around it and stream line it until it's ultra quick and snappy.
Put it in the hands of different people, who all are musicians, engineers, and power users. Then let them push it to the limits. Then correct everything those power users said, and do it again. Will it be perfect? NO! But my god they could really make a run at it. This is the AKAI PRO and the MPC should be the KING/GOD/MONSTER of all drum machine. Step to us and we will crush you.
That should be their approach, instead we get. Hey check out this neat little feature.

We all know how much hate the Live gets around here from the old geezers - err - I mean old school MPC users. Akai thinks a speaker and an arm rest will make them happy, though.
! Man don't scare me like that.
