new 2500

ive been reading about this JJ O.S....i just copped a new mpc 2500 today...traded it in for the 1000 ( got sick of the pads stickin) anyways...akai shipped it out with O.S 1.22 so...forgive me if its a stupid question...but what exactly is the newest O.S. that akai ships out...is it 1.22 or something other than or equivalent to the JJ O.S???...i would appreciate any insight...thanks

nah, that's the newest one. from what I read on here, akai haven't come close the jj os, but I've never used it.

word...thats cool...ill read on that JJ O.S more.....

Yeah aint many of us akai OS folks left, mostly newbies still on this side of the fence, no offense. Seems like anyone who has been on this forum for any significant period of time has given up waiting on Akai's b***h a** and is now twist'n tight ones wit the JJ OS. I suppose i'm lagging behind, its inevitable though, soon i too will CROSS OVER.

With the exception of the redesigned Chop Shop feature, there is no other function JJ added that I really need.

redesigned chop shop? if you don't mind me asking...what was changed?

i def crossed over... using midi control on the q faders is dope jj os - word

Had the 2500 for 2 weeks and after 2 obvious and show stopping bugs in the Akai 1.22, I switched to JJ OS. I would like the Akai OS to be good, but it isn't.

Let's guess...you had a create folder bug, and MTC sync problem....

So this can be blamed on Akai OS??

Almost right Jahrome. Of course the file corruption bug, which showed itself both by freezing when creating a new folder and PC read errors in copying work via usb. The second bug is that muting midi tracks doesn't mute the note ons at all, it shortens the duration instead (when "mute/stop of one shot sample" is set to immediate). Mute which doesn't at all...

I know you are prepared to be happy with those, Jahrome, but I am not.

Blade_2000, these problems are all fixable with software updates. JJ OS fixed my issues, Akai OS could do the same.
