You have to get pro tools man. A digi 003 system will now only work with the new jjos but if you have the akai os the 002 will work just fine. Also you have to make sure you have the akai cables to go from the spidif out to the digi 002 or 003 inputs so it comes out as a wav and not a mp3. The akai transfer cables are like 10 bucks. Hope that helps. :evil: :twisted:

This is either the worst advice I have ever heard or a somewhat funny joke. I can't really tell.

I guess sarcasim does not translate well into posts but all who know the mpc know the real truth about it. You have to use pt and a digi unit :shock: Or is it lol have to read the manual to find out.

You don't need pro tools to turn your beat into a wav file...

Yo this kid was asking how to turn beats in his MPC into wav files, not how to put wav files onto his CF card which seems to be what you are describing...

Look i have an mpc 500 and need a program that reads midi files so i can put my waves and programs to a folder so that it will pick up what i recorded onto the mpc and playback as the way i recorded it in the mpc.

By Dj Solace Sat Apr 05, 2008 5:59 pm
What are you talking about? You do not need midi anything to convert a wave file? You need to call guitar center and get the akai mpc to wave cable for your pc and soundforge simple as that.
