Hey all! I just got my hands on a busted MP2kxl and I'm looking for the service manual.
The audio outs are busted and the pads dont work properly! I have tested the pad sensors and they are fine so it's something else, maybe an IC?
The stereo outputs dont work and the phones out is very quiet! the record ins dont work too, they can monitor a signal and you can hear it with the phones out but once it is recorded it sounds like noise.
If anyone has access to the service manual it would great it if could grab a copy!
Any other advise is more than welcome.
Peace!

Did you clean the memory slots and contacts of the RAM sticks?
When I got my MPC2000 I got the same problem with recording samples. Monitor was ok but sample was just noise. Also my MPC showed memory of 2MB although it was equipped with 32MB.
I cleaned the contacts and everything is good now.

Damn! You got gaffled! :shock:
Just get in contact with Akai and surprisingly enough, they will email you a .PDF copy. That's how I got mine.
