why everytime someone talks about making gear look better, there are ppl like ^^^ always trying to bring it back to "...it what your gear looks like, it's what you put into the gear that make the music" or something to that effect. i have not found one thread on this site where someone can talk about improving the cosmetics of their without someone saying something.

damn, maybe, just maybe ppl want their gear to look good. WE ALL KNOW GOOD LOOKING MACHINE DOES NOT EQUAL GOOD SOUNDING BEATS. if noone thought of improving the way things look everyone would still be using an interface like the DX7 or the SP12 or better still, no interface just a couple of buttons and transport controls.

it's called innovation and evolution ppl. i agree, it would be sick if even the 4k had a triton type screen. and the 2.5k and 1000 had some color to its screen.

and jaem, you have the best beats ever don't you? your gear is so bland, nothing to them?

THANK YOU!

And thats my point, Thank You Jaem

didnt say anything about the sound i said about the screen lol
it would make it better and easier to use without abbreviations and everything scrunched up

"i need new shoes"
"if ur a good runner the laces should be fine the way they are"

UR OFF TOPIC



son

It's a **** sampler. not a **** arts and crafts machine.

the same thing would happen that has happened to windows and every other operating system and games in general, eye candy galore, game play, functionallity = 0

so what if it doesnt look all nice and **** pretty. good. it serves it's purpose. i actually prefer its interface to many others i have seen, it's nice and retro looking.

if they concentrate on aesthetics of the operating system we'll be given update after update that incorporate fancy waiting animations and tonnes of other crap, then it may as well not be a sampler.

why dont they not have a screen at all with ur way of thinking ur living in the past why dont we make a 6 second loop record it to tape delete add everything again record it over that 6 seconds and keep doing it until we get a full beat?

**** pen n paper origami screen n shit

2 questions.....

is the current screen functional?

is navigation logical?

What else do you need????

I should also mention my main axe is not an MPC, but an EPS 16+

Wow. The guy suggested the screen could be improved.... Some responses would have you believe he had suggested some sort of heresy. Something can do it's job well but still have room for improvement. I also don't think slight improvements will leave functionality = 0. When the screens were made to tilt did this set the MPC on a path to ruin?

A drum beat can be achieved with a small set of pads/buttons, but I bet everyone here is happier with the nice large pads on an MPC even though it might not contribute to anything sounding better.

Anything that makes you more comfortable and improves the experience of beat making will contribute to you making more and better beats.

i think a better screen would be phat!!
