I hear more bad stuff about the MPC1k everyday...I am glad I didn't sell my 2kxl and cop this...I would be mad....no downsizing for me
Its all a matter of the situation that you're in. I'm currently stuck trying to decide between the MPC2000XL and the MPC1000, but I also have a beast of a PC to work with the MPC I get. Check out what someone at another forum had to say...
"1000 comes with 16MB RAM and can be expanded to 128, while the 2000XL comes with 2MB and maxes out at 32MB..
1000 comes with 6 analog plus one digital out, while the 2000XL comes with only a single stereo pair. any extra outs must be purchased with expensive expansion boards.
1000 uses SmartMedia cards for storage of up to 2GBs, while the 2000XL uses SCSI (old technology) and expensive and flaky Zip and floppy drives. SCSI stuff is bulky, slow, and hard to find, making it more expensive than ever. Smart Media are just bigger than a postage stamp.
1000 comes with internal FX standard, while the 2000XL comes with none. again, you must purchase another expensive add-on board for FX.
1000 can fit in a backpack and still have room for your laptop, cables, and other stuff. the 2000XL is a cash register sized beat. have fun lugging that around, along with you Zip drive, disks, SCSI cables and CDROM drive.
1000 can read transfer samples and files back forth from your computer with USB. the 2000XL couldn't even dream of that. "
tru!
