Technical questions for the MPC2000xl and the MPC2000
By ephyshnt Fri Dec 08, 2006 2:38 am
Could someone send me, publish or provided this forum with a detailed description of the electronic parts associated with these accessories,

Akai EB-16 Multi Effects board
IB-M208P 8 In/OUts
FMX008M 8 MB Flash Rom board and last but not least....
IC-M2TC SMPTE IC

...the numbers and letters on top of the chips, number of pins on each IC, resistors colour and tolerance bands, capacitor ratings, etc.

THIS IS AN S.O.S. TO ALL WHO HAVE COME IN CONTACT OR OWN AN MPC WITH SOME OR ALL OF THE PARTS STATED ABOVE.

I've thought about this for a while now and it seems like a better alternative to build the accessories for the MPC. Most of the processors were custom built for the machine, but technology is at a point right now were an alternative chip could be used in place of the processor on board. That's why i'm still asking anyone out there to provided close up pictures of your effects boards, flash rom, and 8 outs so that i may build a schematic(s). They would need to be close enough to see the copper connections on the board and also the ratings on top of the components so that i can send off a parts list to a manufacturer.

And if by chance has any one hacked the OS for the 2kXL? Is there a way to view the binary files in a programming language understood by humans, not in 1's and 0's.

Also is there any resources on the net that would provided a listing of the algorithm used in the 2kXL?

HELP!!!

I would surely appreciate the help, from anyone. But i do need pictures of the accessories right at the moment.

You can send the pictures to [email protected]...high rez pics would be most helpful, but even if you can get a great shot out of a webcam that would help too.
