hi! welcome to the forums!

do you have a mpc 2500? -> then open your manual and read...

have you upgraded your o.s.? -> then download and read the addendums...

do you have no mpc 2500? -> then goto http://www.akaipro.com/ and download the manuals and addendums and read...

and to keep it short: no!

peace jo

untrue. you're probably talking about "bit grunger" in the effect screen, but it's definitely not a bit converter.

well, to me it almost does the same trick. But true, it isn't under the name bit converter. :)

you could do that.

you could also live in delaware and have an office in new york, and wake up at 3 am to commute every day. or a home in coastal portugal and commute to madrid every day, if that's closer to the truth.

ok i understand that to change the OS isnt a fast solution.... and for the people who like the sp or mpc60 sound and have a mpc2500... how you do it? with a mpc60, a s950 ......... some cheap solution.... or not cheap

:lol: that's whatI've been thinking .. should I get myselfs JJ don't think so.. you can always have an original akai OS ( updated version) and use some better hardware for FX or anything else. FOr sure AKAI FX base definitely sounds krap..
