I was wondering if anyone here is using an MPC1000 with the JJ os installed ???Even though I hated my MPC2000XL this OS looks pretty good and is almost tempting me to part with my SP1200!!!

someone brought in a 1000 into a sesion i was working and it was nice
but what is the jj mod?
is that after market?
i thought the 1000 killed a 2000/xl for features /ease of use and portability
they are so cheap why would you off the the sp ???
 
Anyone rocking the mpd 24? Little dude tools i know but im on a budget & was wondering if its worth picking 1 up.

Yeah, it's written by some japanese guys and seems to have a similar feature to the 2500, grid edit etc...

I have a limited amount of space to put my gear as my house is so small so try to limit myself to keeping only one sampler...
 
The JJ OS is a nice soft-upgrade firmware for the 1000 that adds a slew of new features / bugfixes that Numark/Akai never bothered to fuck with. With the new OS it definitely trumps any 2000xl/3000 before it as far as functionality goes.
As far as ditching an SP in favor of a 1000? Never that.
The SP hasn't stayed in favor this long because of its extensive feature set. If you need more explanation I'll kindly take yours off your hands.
 
i wouldnt get a 1000..those pads have major problems..get a 2500 if any of the newer ones.
its true man. i love my 1000 but the pads are definitely flakey.

does anyone know if the jj fix improves the pad issues?

hollur.
 
i just bought an mpc1000 the other day and i was wondering if you guys could explain a little more why you think the pads are buggy.i've spent a couple hours messing with it, sampling drums, making lil drum sequences and i didnt notice anything weird. the one i have is the black one if that makes a difference.
 
Don't part with the SP! and if you do sell it to me please. JJOS has been a godsend. That is all.
 
regarding the 1000s pads, the new ones are supposed to be straight. i think that covers all the black ones and some of the newer blue ones. havent fucked with my mpc in a while but jj os is the truth
 
Honestly though y'all.. all this info is over at mpc-forums.com. There's about 8,000 posts that answer every question in this thread.

What makes the MPD 24 little dude? It's a similar approach to beat making as the real MPCs... same thing with the padkontrol which is my avatar... lots of non-little dudes are using these little dude tools...

Sometimes it's hard to see the wood for the tree's though !!!
 
Ha i was jus screwin around really. You know what some of the ass hats on here are like, its like the player haters ball up in here some days.
I was jus fishin for a bit of feedback on it to be honest but ive got a decent computer so im probably gonna grab one anyway when i get paid...
 
i'm returning mine in the morning, fuck paying that much money for something thats destined to fail. i think i shall wait til i can get a 2000 second hand for cheap
