Also....i see everyone chattin' about JJo.s.......i'll be searchin that out......has the JJo.s. tackled this issue & made this possible? Please infom a brotha.

The mpc2500(based on its specs) can read mpc2000/xl pgms.

MPC1000: SEQ, WAV, PGM, ALL
MPC2000/2000XL: SEQ, WAV, SND, PGM (Most parameters of a PGM file can be loaded.)
MPC4000: SEQ, WAV, PGM (DRUM program only. Only note assign and tune are loaded.)
MPC3000: SND (THRU Computer)
Z4/Z8: WAV only
S5000/6000: WAV only (THRU Computer)

Good but the reality from usage is reliable results happen with the 2k/2kxl files being on a CF.
Other mediums have given an abundance of can't find file messages.
This is with either JJ or the later versions of Akai OS.
