    MPC5000 looks awesome!

    OK, but are you certain this is how the MPC operates? It seems to me that the eight "direct record tracks" stream from hard disk, beginning to end, however all other samples are loaded into ram and triggeredfrom ram.

    MPC5000 looks awesome!

    I don't think the 5000 allows you to trigger samples from hard disk, otherwise they would have said it in the press release. The 5000 does have an eight track recorder which streams from hard disk (similiar to a roland vs or korg d series recorder), however normally if you want to manually...

    Dahkter on the MPC - 16bars

    Thanks Sanova, appreciate it. Regaring the tapping beats live, it's always a work in progress. I've had an MPC since 97, however it was only last year is when I started playing everything simultaneously. In the past I would put each sound on 16 levels velocity and do one thing at a time...

    Dahkter on the MPC - 16bars

    I spent seven minutes watching the Akai rep make a beat on the MPC5000 today. That got me inspired to turn on the MPC and tap a quick beat out. Wifey just got a new camera, so hoping to do more videos this year. Two more weeks til this album I been working on is done, looking forward to...

    MPC5000 looks awesome!

    Ash is right on. I thought it was a big let down, I was expecting the new 4000, it's just a 2500 with some more features. No 24bit is a killer, almost all sample libraries are now 24bit/44.1, so you'd still have to waste time converting samples to load into it. 192mb memory is a joke, I got...

    Mlmg Video "in The Lab"

    dope video mucka. When that first cat came on playing the keys, it reminded me of some crazy warner brothers cartoon where bugs writes tons of notes on the page and daffy needs to play it. keep on makin those hits, real, real nice.

    whats your favorite mix

    I just want to add one thing. Even though automation is now the norm wtih pro tools, a lot of the predigital mixdowns like Public Enemy, Beastie Boys and Stetsasonic are as good (and definitely more interesting to the ears IMO) then a lot of the new mixes done today. Those joints were done...

    whats your favorite mix

    I always liked the mix on Check the Rhime, it's not something I would necessarily emulate or copy, however I love the dyanimcs on that track.

    headphones make the best earmuffs

    yeah, at first I was not crazy about them, prefering the md7506s, however they've grown on me and I really like the snug fit, the light weight, and the sound quality, definitely nice piece of gear. My joints are just like yours though, within six months of owning them, the left ear shorted...

    headphones make the best earmuffs

    Man, It's freezing in NYC today. I've been in Chicago before, this is similar, windy and painful. Today I was walking around on my lunchbreak, I see all of these people with scrunched up faces, bright red, wincing, kind of hilarious. Anyways, I have a pair of Senheiser HD25's, got em...
