I NEED my MPC 1000 FIXED!!!

good time to learn. you save yourself a lot of money this way

Whaa.. how does your CF card slot got broken? I'm really scared this is gonna happen to me too because it's always a little difficult to put my CF card in to the slot..

If i can bypass the cf card reader than ill fork out the money for all new pads

take your time when you put your cards into your card reader. they fit in a certain way and if you're too fast about it you can bend/break one of the pins in there. i've done that twice, and it's a pain in the ass to reach in there and tweeze the pin back to its original spot. still works, but i only use cf cards to update my os.

it'd be nice to replace the cf card with some sort of wireless doohickey

do you have a hard drive?

i'm sure jj could sort that one out.

maybe jj - but then again maybe you! got any ideas about the feasibility of creating a wireless connection from CF card to computer?

well, i'd probably just get a usb-to-wireless usb converter when one appears. for a more difficult solution, a cf bluetooth/wi-fi card with custom driver coding by jj.

hah yeah. that'd be nice wouldn't it

i sincerely hope that one day there will be an mpc style sampler that allows simultaneous access to RAM/active samples from the PC while the sequencer is running

imagine it - you've got a drum pattern playing and you just want to EQ the kick so you bring it up in sound forge and destructively edit it to sound more like _____. hit save and SNAP it changes in the sequence just like that.

I dont have a external hd but I could get an internal very cheap and the buy one of those inclosures(i think thats right)

Is this true, I CANNOT bypass the CF card reader on my MPC1000. This is what I was told, by VST

You cannot bypass it with another CF card reader, if that's what you mean. You can get a 2.5" laptop hard drive and the HDM-10 kit, and install them into your mpc. that way, you can save and load from the hard drive, therefore, you won't necessarily need the cf card slot.
