  • Hey guys. Sorry that I haven't uploaded a video in a while. I've been dealing with some health issues. Today I just wanted to give you my thoughts on the MPC 2000. I'm really loving making music with this machine. Thanks for watching guys!!

      It didn't power on. - ended up being a 50¢ fuse! Then I replaced a couple of buttons and knobs, all in all, I have less than $100 into it- that includes the unit

    I've had mine since 09.Never getting rid of it. I don't have the 8 outs or effects board but I'm fully expanded with memory. Love it.

    Akai mpc 2000 Classic hittin hard man ,the sound is awesome.I also have the Live 2, which has the faster workflow, but when it comes to sound, unfortunately it doesn't come close to the 2000 classic.imho

      Yeah man, you can't beat the speed of the workflow on the Live 2. But the sound of the 2000!! 🔥🔥🔥 Do you have any vintage MPCs?

      I still have an Akai mpc 2000xl in blue with a card reader. It also has a good sound but I think the 2000 plays a bit harder.
      At some point I would like to buy an Mpc 4000 and try it out. I actually want an mpc 3000 but the prices are crazy.
      btw you can also create a similar sound with the mpc live 2 if you know which controls and buttons to turn, but out of the box with the mpc 2000 you get the fat Sound

    Man I just got mine delivered today but I’m at work. I can’t wait to get home and get my paws on it. Truth be told I didn’t need it I got almost every MPC ever made minus the 1000. It was always something about the 2000 that I thought was so sexy even though there’s no tilt screen like the 2000xl and I got 2 of those well 3 one I use for parts only. People who dump on it all I say is, if your track record for making music is not better than Kanye West then don’t talk to me about no AKAI MPC 2000. That cat make history with the ASR-10 and AKAI MPC 2000.

    Man, I got a 2000 Classic a few months ago but......I gotta get a screen for it other than that it's in pristine condition and it even came with a printed manual. I'm going to attempt to repair the ribbon before I take the $200 plunge for a new screen. I really want to hear this thing so I'll be patient (I didn't pay much for mine either) so it's worth the wait. Thanks for the upload

      Thanks for watching! Man $200 for a screen is steep! Let me know when you do it. I'm interested to know if it's a big improvement.

      Hey ! Take care with those screens that people sell like mpcstuff or marunio lcd because they are not working well with 8 outs and fx board. Glitching and creating ghost lines is all I can say . Bad experience with these screens. Mpcstuff is the only one that advise you about problem, the rest don’t say nothing about and later 😢.

    Thank you for the video and for pointing out that you will need to learn how to solder and perform repairs on a machine of this age. For someone like me, who isn't techy, a machine like this will quickly turn into a money pit, because I would have to send it to MPC Stuff or someone similar to perform all the repairs.

    • @ABSTRACT_MUSIC
      @ABSTRACT_MUSIC  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Yes! I work as an electrician so soldering is no big deal for me. And if you don't solder correctly it can lead to more issues. Thanks so much for watching and commenting.

  • @OWOspirit
    @OWOspirit Před 7 dny

    in the comparison of mpc 2000 and 2500, the newer one has a much faster and intuitive interface, built-in effects, it is possible to upload jj os, it is better as a device... but it does not have this sound or it is more modern, it has much worse pads, i repeat The classic version pads are the pads the world cares about

  • @jameshardy5578
