question about the mpc freezing...

That's like worst news I have recieved in months. Is it possible that someone else got it in stock? Or maybe that it's replaceble with a different card reader?

Unfortunately, the answer to both of your questions is no. But eventually they will be shipped. Nodody knows when. Hopefully, Akai will look into the problem of why these card readers are defective (as more and more people are having this problem) and eliminate the problem using better components before the new shipment becomes available.

yeah there definitely is. so considering you've read that thread (and I'm glad you decided to help yourself by taking my suggestion), I'll be more than willing to help you make a decision.

So here's some questions...

1. How much hard drive space would you prefer, and how much would you be willing to spend?

2. Do you shop online, or just strictly from a store?

3. Where are you located?

After answering those questions, I'll be able to help you out further.

1. How much hard drive space would you prefer, and how much would you be willing to spend?

A decent amount, producing is getting pretty serious for me right now.

2. Do you shop online, or just strictly from a store?

Both.

3. Where are you located?

Vancouver, BC

I came to the point where I gave my Mpc a "right hook "over the pads yesterday, and now my the compact flash reader works just fine!
hahaha...

oh really???

*grabs a sledge hammer*

No kiddin.. When you're stuck in Oslo Norway you gotta handle things the old school way. The Mpc is like my little kid, so I'm aloud to smack it up a little

Damn... i was hoping you were located in the US, since I know that newegg.com has really good prices on the Toshiba 40gb drive that's recommended by Akai. I checked last night, and the price dropped down drastically to like $47.99 (or somewhere in that range). But I didnt find any info about shipping to Canada. Do a search on froogle.com for the recommended hard drives and theyre availablity in Canada. I got my hands tied right now, so I can't help other than to point you in that direction .

i can get the shit sent to mine or my buddies US box at the post office, i can walk down the road from my house and cross the border in like 3 minutes.

so post up what u thinks good.

and can you only get this hdm-10 harddrive adapter from akai or is it in stores like tom lee music...ect
