like the korg m3 drum pads, they can fire off different chords. rolling them with note repeat would be dope.

Just to co-sign: The new features look really good!!! As long as OS2 projects work properly in OS2XL. It really has to work 100% or otherwise it will be too much of a headache.

i cant see the os2 projex not working, this is barely an overhaul, just some new features.

If someone buy this christmas AKAI 1000 and want to update OS to max must pay:

1-Os1=49 dolars
2-OS2=49 dolars
3-OS2Xl=15 dolars
113 dolars total

...i think that after alll JJ will be generous with his users..all people talk good about his work...and his soft hast been hacket...why he not do a gift to all with a free pack?


i translated this it of text

4. OS2XLのパスワード料金は6500円です。
  但し、OS2のパスワードが入力されているMPCにOS2XLをインストールした場合は1000円です。

and it came out as:

4. The password fee of OS2XL is 6500 Yen.   However, when OS2XL is installed to MPC where the password of OS2 is input, they are 1000 Yen.

which implied that if you have no previous jj - you can come staight in and buy for 6500 yen which is about £40 or $66

...


Then how much is the total for a person that have the OS from AKAI and want to update his OS to JJ OS2XL?(OS1+OS2+OS2XL)

Like simult but with midi notes rather than pad numbers.


Guess I overlooked that screen shot. I said I might be surprised, and I sure am. That does look pretty innovative. I've never seen something that can be set like that before. (though i guess you can do it in drum racks with ableton with some thought) Looks cool....


I've seen something similar on the Karma/M3 controls, though this looks to be many more pads worth.

yeah, chord pads a la the Korg M3 has been something I have been wanting for a very long time on the MPC. If there is a "chord learn" feature like the M3 as well, that lets you play a chord on a keyboard, have it detected, and then map that to a pad, then I will be even happier.

A while back I sent an email to the JJ guy/guys about chord pads and showed a video of the M3 as an example. I'm glad we'll finally be getting the feature.

anybody else around here ever done the math on how much money "somebody" has made selling illegal software for the mpc1000? im sure everybody knows what an "end user license agreement" is.

Sorry ladies, I'm still on OS1 and have no use to move up. I'm not a sampler, I compose musical compositions so yall go ahead fork over some more dough consumers and twiddle the MPC nipples. Chords are meant to be played on ebony and ivory.
