my homie got some black pads from them some months back. i dont know if theyre the same kind still, but the ones he got are sooooo hard and uncomfortable. they feel like the pads on the mpd 16 or the trigger finger. he switched back to the og pads cuz his fingers were gettin sore, i would go over to his house and mess around with them and couldnt stand em

Black pads for the 1000, or those for the 2000XL/2500 etc?

I have two sets of black pads, from two different orders/batches at VST, I can feel no difference between those and the grey pads from my 2500 or 2000XL. The only difference is that maybe new black pads are not yet that worn out, if someone's used to working with his 10-year old pads. Probably someone could make a killing with selling "worn-in MPC pads" :D

Unable to locate a thread at present, so if someone finds it, please do share.

And the more I'm looking at what styleflip can do here, the more i wanna leave the (beat up) factory paintjob and put vinyl over it....

hmmmm damnit
