I have my order in already.
THis is gonna piss off all the 1000 heads that have been waiting for the 1000 OS update with timesteach etc.. etc...
I knew that shit wasent gonna happen.... Personally if i get another MPC im getting a 4000, till then im fine with the XL, but it looks cool though....

Naw but on the real I am waiting for the people at akai to get back @ me....my man works at Chuck Levins told me that akai is coming into their store like OCT or something but they are tight lipped about the piece in the US......even though Japan has a Jump on the product...

It's the 1000 with a couple extra bells and whistles. Unfortunately, I've seen this kind of product release before. I'm a fan of Roland stuff but Roland has a problem. They like to kill support and discontinue shit quick. Seeing APMI doing this now, it looks to me like they're going to drop the 1000 quickly and decisively. Too bad. The Roland disease is spreading. Better get vaccinated.
The-Shadow said:
Nahh this aint the case at all, the 2500 is just ment to replace the 2xl. Dispite its dopeness the 2xl technology is alomst 10 years old. Its a much needed upgrade.
Now the flagship MPC's are gonna be
MPC 1000
MPC 2500
MPC 4000
Each realitivly new and each filling a market niche price and feature wise

THis is what I beleive. They are not going to ditch the 1000, its saling to stong. People are buying them like crazy then saleing them on ebay complaining. More will buy this to ditch their 1k when they are not in direct competiton. But since this will be smaller I might ditch the 4k for this and have the 1k for underway and the 25k for home since they will be compatible. THis makes since for me, but paying 2G's I don't know about that. I also like the fact that its 10 outs right out the box. But I'm still wondering if its worth the dough.

The Akai Professional MPC2500 Music Production Center combines a 64-Track MIDI Sequencer with a 32-voice 16bit Stereo Digital Sampler. The MPC is a rock solid sequencing and drum programming machine with 16 velocity and pressure sensitive rubber pads. The unit allows you to sample more efficiently. This composition center is contained in one extremely powerful desktop unit. Designed for professional audio production, the MPC2500’s intuitive and ergonomic interface makes it the ultimate user friendly composition studio Two internal effects processors can be used simultaneously. This includes a wide range of effects algorithms, such as reverb, bit grunger, chorus, phasers, flying pan, 4-band EQ, compressor, and a phase shifter. Real-time control is provided by two note variation sliders and two Q-Link knobs. Q-link knobs can be separately assigned to allow flexible, real-time performance control of a wide variety of selectable parameters. These
parameters include level, pan, filter cut-off and
resonance, tuning, LFO(low frequency oscillator) speed depth, all effect parameters and more. Each assignable Q-Link knob can generate MIDI controller data so that all performance information can be recorded and played back from within a sequence. The Q-Link sequencer allows cyclic modulation
programming. Following the highly acclaimed MPC60 and MPC3000, 2 MIDI inputs and 4 MIDI outputs
come standard enabling 64 external MIDI channel operation. In addition, the MPC2500 can individually control its onboard sampler up to 64 Parts, allowing users to assign a different program on each track. A large LCD screen allows a clear view of sequence data displaying features such as a
piano roll, or a drum machine 'grid'. Continuous MIDI data can be shown as well as edited graphically. The MPC2500 comes with 16MB of onboard memory which can be expanded up to 128
MB of RAM via the optional EXM128 memory card. The MPC2500 has the capability of an
optional internal 80GB Hard Disk and CD-RW drives. Positioning Akai Professional, in its pursuit to remain the leader of digital sampling technology has released the MPC 2500. This unit designed for
professional audio production, offers drum programming, sequencing, and sampling capabilities. Artists now have the luxury of producing music with a compact music composition center.
