Can I Use The MPC 2500 By Itself?

My MPC 2500 is sitting here by itself. What can I do with it by itself. Or are there other pieces I need to get to work with it?

I assume that you have the CF card that came with it (for some sounds)and either a pair of headphones/amp+speakers to listen to it.

Thats a start.

Read the manual, read it again or (even better) buy the 'Making Beats on the MPC2500' ebook from MPC-samples.com

This will take you through the whole process of beatmaking on the MP

You'll need a way to get new sounds into the MP such as turntable/mixer/vinyl or PC with CDs/mp3s, cos the sounds that come with the MPC will not last too long before you get bored with them.

Read, learn, make beats, be happy!

by itself, the mpc doubles as a wonderful dinner plater.
