well, you have to admit that the price is steep for something that we logically THINK has to be less feature heavy than the mpc1000 is now at os 2.1.
however, they could blow us out of the water with the software. who knows? i mean, if the unit comes loaded with some incredible os, then shit, i'll eat my words. but for that price, this thing better be able to do things no other mpc has been able to do so far...and in that case, we better be able to expect an os upgrade for the other recent mpcs that implement the same software...
know what i mean? it seems that akai is pushing themselves into a corner ever since we found out that they're using the same parts/processors/sound engines in the 1000/2500, and presumably the 500. that means that very easily each mpc could be running the same os - which pushes the price into question.
it's funny that the software vs hardware debate has now entered the mpcs, literally
