Pad Corx For MPC Live or MK II

Hey Guys!

Was wondering if anyone has had any experience installing MPCStuff's Pad Corx into their MPC Live mk1 or mk2.

Ive been loving my MPC Live 2 but just want to get a bit more sensitivity in to match my playing style. For reference I used to rock an MPD218 and I used small pieces of athletic tape. With the tape installed I could lightly brush my fingers on the to trigger them (It was awesome).

Ive watched a tear down video of the MPC Live on MPCStuff's youtube channel and it does seem like a bit of work but Im mainly concerned with the additional connectors and wires with the MPC Live 2 speakers.

Any thoughts or suggestions would be awesome!

this may block or at least hinder light coming theough the pads. Sounds like an interesting experiment though, so might be worth a rey. Personally I rind the pads much more sensitive than previous systems... MPD, 1k, 500,

Have you tried adjusting the sensitivity curve in the options?

I agree. Also like the OP stated, swapping out the pads are much more involving. It's almost like they don't want us to go in there.

MPCStuff has a version of pad corx with an opening on the middle to account for the LED.

I kind of made a makeshift version of the same thing for my MPD218. To be honest I think the LED's are a really nice feature but I'd definitely be will to give up some visibility for sensitivity.

As far as the settings go, I've tried a few setting but seem to get an increased amount of double triggers the lower I set the threshold. Might have something to do with my play style..? Ill keep playing around with the settings before I resort to opening up my Live 2.
