Forum to discuss all matters relating to the MPC1000 and MPC2500 operating systems created by 'JJ' (all versions).

Is this possible? I know you can erase certain notes via holding erase + pad, but does the JJ OS allow you to do anything like clear all notes in a given track while playing?

actuallly, why the hell doesn't JJ himself (or his helper) post on this forum? it would probably save him a lot of time dealing with bug reports, repetitive feature requests, and would lay out what things are and are not possible which would save US a lot of time debating them!

Why, so peeps can treat him like SCD?

they don't post here because of the language barrier. time spend decoding some of ya'lls absolutely cryptic messages would be better spent coding. i read some stuff here where people don't use punctuation - that's hard enough for me to make sense of as an english major, let alone for someone with limited english...haha

as for scd, he let 1 or 2 bad apples spoil the bushel.

that mpc5000 bug thread absolutely should not have been deleted in my opinion...important discussion, most importantly to people who might be buying a 5000 in the future. it's just not right to delete discussion regarding OS development - this website is not affiliated with akai, so why should our content be "spun" to favor their products?

extremely questionable. i held my tongue, but since you brought it up i had to say something...and for the record i am forever cool with all mods, just highly critical of that particular executive decision

SCD - What does it mean anyway? Let me know!

PS: Not to be confused with "PSK - What does it mean?" (< haha).

for the record : I once asked JJ the exact same question the OP has asked, and I got a response back saying that it is imposible due to a limitation of the CPU. You can't erase all while playing/recording, just like you can't change sequences after recording.

It's a shame, it would turn the MPC into a hell of a live looper machine for me. But you can't have it all I suppose...


Unless someone knows a workaround?

yeah. solder in a better CPU!

my dream mod. still hope it happens someday. would be nice if Akai got off their lazy asses & released a new mpc 1000 with circa 2008 cpu & components but that will never happen. look at that bloated 5000 they just released. if you want the horsepower they are gonna force you to buy the big expensive beast & put more $$$ in their wallets. they still don't understand that the reason the 1000 is so popular is that it is compact, portable, stripped down & nice approachable physical interface & somewhat affordable (tho still overpriced to buy new in the store in my opinion.)
