Says the man who "talks shit". The guy who goes bananas on his livestreams and then takes them down. Who replies to comments saying that EA Ski can "talk to deez nuts" and then takes a 180º to make very zen videos behaving like a sad puppy that's sorry because they've talked on the phone. Oh Tupac, Ja Morant, no beef.

The guy who says he is not a shill but rants agressively against someone he says he didn't even knew. The guy who ran to save Akai's honor because Benn Jordan didn't like the **** Keys 61 he got so he must be dumb and racist.

I wonder how Andy Mac reacted after seeing so many guys that got the MPC being so diplomatic and milking this stupid war.

This forum provides information that Ave Mcree could never deliver. I'm sure there's conflict from time to time (it's the internet after all) but so far i've only seen nice people with different takes. From what i've seen from him, he's the one who's toxic.

I've been monitoring the post about the complaints of the lack of ram and I see the people replying saying "well I had only 32 megs" and so on, but the problem is that when you have a standalone instrument and you have plugins that rely on that memory then it is an issue, as when Akai releases new instrument collections for the MPC Key 61 that rely on the synth engine certain projects that are done on that machine will not load in the X with all of the instruments due to the ram constraint, so say you do a project and leave your MPC Keys at home and the studio has an X and it may have the latest instruments but you are force to only use the software in the computer there, but you want to use the Hardware as you want to run individual outs for an added analog punch, well you're shit out of luck in that department, Akai did do a punk move when they decided to hardwire the ram and you see how that worked out for Apple, just so you will have to upgrade in the future so these people are not cry babys, it is an ligitamate gripe and also even though the ram is hard wired it can be changed as long as it is replaced with the same type of ram as you can go up in memory as the hardware program does not have a limit as it is based on Linux programming code and the processor is still the same between the two ..lol that is the dead give away right there!! but there are shills telling people that they have to do all of this exotic programming and it is not possible oh it is possible and there are people out there that have modded their Live and X's in the pro community it just a tight lip thing, when Akai upgraded the X to the X Se they did nothing but just up the ram and internal storage using the same soft programming they use for the X and that is all the SE is, just a modded X nothing new with the internal software that is why the upgrade to both are the same software I am just tired of companies preying in the ignorance of the public there is totally no difference in the X or SE other than Ram and internal storage other than the ram and storage they're the same internally now when they release the XL that will be a new beast the move to the SE was a money grab as it cost them literally nothing to make the SE in comparison to the X I did not sign an NDA so screw them...

Wonder what's more toxic ... speaking your mind (most of the people in this forum seem to do it ) or alienating people by showcasing my mood swings and erratic behavior on YouTube through "toxic positivity" about everything on one side (I mean it even carries "toxic" in it's name) and then badmouthing other people on the other side and crawling back later whining and adding to that big pile of poop. To each their own man but such things with such an amount of reach that guy has ... I can feel the tremors from 1000 miles away.
In the end I don't know ... I am German. We are a tribe of people that like to look for reasons why things suck instead of just embracing the new possibilities :mrgreen:

I think the most egregiously greedy think Akai has done recently is basically charging $1000 for 2 gigs of RAM, a flip up screen and a new paint job on the mpc x SE, especially when you take in consideration what ram prices are currently. They are absolutely fleecing people.
