i got the cash to get the 2500 and no one wants to buy my 1000 because they're either just gonna save a little more and get the new 2500 or get a black 1000

akai sucks, they come out with all this new shit a year after i buy the 1000

i had this shit for a year and now i'm stuck with it unless i sell it for 10 bucks

hang onto it for a few months after the 2500 comes out and put it up on craigslist as "vintage color" ;-)

another option for you would be to save money and get a decent computer... whatever the 1k can't do, can be done on a computer with the appropriate software... hope that helps...

i second that one...laptops are very portable...

regarding the 1000 price...TOO BAD!!! Use what you have an quit following the next newest bigest thing people.....comsumorism...comsumorism..... The 1000 is a very capable and decent unit...of course there will be a bunch of people dumping the mpc1000 to get the newest thing....but its not the color of a unit that matters its the user of the unit.. and how he uses it...

i think alot of these cats jumpin ship are cats who really havent mastered the 1k..they think the newest equipment gonna make their beats ten times better but folks gotta realizee a few extra features wont do that..if you cant make heat on a 1k..what makes you think the 2500 do so much more for your beats..its what you put into it..that counts

I love my 1k by the way and feel no need to upgrade anytime soon.

Guys...you might want to wait for the new OS before dumping them.

Just a thought.

man, someone call the waaaaambulence... What do you expect? Ok, I will give you 998 dollars for your 1000. That sounds like a great deal for you! Enough with the akai bashing. I used to come to this site to learn stuff about my mpc, now all I hear is bitching. Shut up and make beats, then you can get rich and buy all 4 mpcs.

"I got the cash to get the 2500" followed by "Akai sucks."

Interesting comments. What will you do when they release a MPC2500XL II in 18 months time?

I'd like a 2500 like most others here but will be able to buy a 4000 Plus for the same or less in the UK if the pricing scheme is as expexcted.
