How much would you pay JJ for a MPC500 OS?

Id pay 40 bucks!

If what I have read is true, and that is that JJ is a previous Akai employee and actually stole the code from the 1000 and used that as a basis for the JJOS then I would pay ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

If it's not true then I would pay ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, as the 500 already does what I need it too. If you want more buy the 1000.

I'd definitely throw down a solid $40 for this, maybe more. Depends on what benefits would come from switching.

JJ left Akai long before the MPC500. So he doesn't have the code, like the MPC1000/2500
JJ also mentioned that he would not make an OS for the 500.
This was all discussed quite a while ago.
Just thought I'd mention it here for those who haven't read earlier threads on this topic.

lol lets not drag facts into it ok

well i think they said it, jj isn't gonna come out with an os for the 500. i would be willing to pay about 40 or 50 though, especially if saving is easier. i haven't had problems saving sequences or programs on mine, but saving projects f*cks things up half the time i try, which is why i usually dont. its confusing too, too many things to keep track of for saving, when comparing saving on a daw. but now that the new os 1.31 is out, i downloaded it but haven't saved projects yet. anybody try or still have saving bugs with the new os?

saving isn't confusing at all, it couldnt be any easier.

i save project and when i load i load folder. no problems ever.

and i emailed akai about adding autochop to mpc500, the dude said he didn't hear any plans for it but he said it was possible so i got my fingers crossed.

if your sayin it couldnt be any easier to save on an mpc, then you never saved on a daw cause daws are only 1 click save.

i chop with my mind from a distance of ten feet. it never fails

A guy from akai hit me on the email earlier, I asked if direct record would be on the next update. This is what he wrote.

Thank you for your suggestions! I have not heard of plans for these features
to be added though I would be glad to submit this to the engineers.

LOL. Akai are SIMPLY AMAZING they really go the extra mile with their gold-standard customer service and their incredible intuition for the needs of their loyal MPC customers...
