CHARACTERISTICS compltes, full compatibility with professional studio environment!
Sync: all it can be hassle free drive as a slave by any magnto and sync
PM: trs complete and easy to use especially for selecting a channel to a track from a sequencer, its 2midi 4 midi IN and OUT vritable make it the nerve center of your home studio, you can drive samplers, synths, programming changes peripherals, mute automation etc etc etc.. . .
audio outputs: the 8 outputs are traditional SERIES, BRAVO! it possde an internal mixer which acts on the stereo output!
sequencer: complete and simple, very practical and quick to capture as much time as rl programming step by step: probably the best hardware sequencer version 3.1 of the market (prsentation MPC3000) adds some new features but everything is in the Submitted dj version 2.12 original!

the soft 3.1 and SCSI
is an option to upgrade in the MPC60 MPC3000 while keeping the sampling and 12bit mono! dvellopp widely in forums of this site, all the new features are also here http://www.rogerlinndesign.com/products/mpc60.shtml Retailer
WARNING: you lose some functions from the soft INTERESTED original function as a tune drums, sampler or the fact of the pads directly without affecting the samples in one program!

Difference I MPC60 / MPC60 II:
trs little the Difference, a headphone output (useful power to refine the respondent in!) and a new look for the version II, a swivel screen for the version I!
While the plastic housing is fragile on the II, but weight gain!
both versions are all beautiful fawn and equivalents, it is the same, same sound, same CHARACTERISTICS! ! !

UTILIZATION

Designed to perfectly programmed beats of all kinds thanks to legendary pads akai, dj Submitted on Version I, the strength of the MPC60 RSID probably in concept while Intgr sequencer + + sampling pads!
many features that make sampler, and edit sounds dcouper rhythm rl is a pleasure, and is no longer possible on a conventional sampler when it is taste.
I know no drum machine can compete with it, except possibly be the MPC3000!

SOUNDS

This is the famous style S950 12bit sound team that this machine!
trs typ crr but effective rhythmic original style hip hop, r & b, house, electro. . . !

OVERALL OPINION

I have not stopped using it since its purchase! this machine can do without the atari cubase and other anti-pc cratif, it is as I said dj the nerve center of my setup.
used by many artists, she became the star of the flight is MPC3000 16bit and stereo!
the choice of one and another and a more artistic direction I think, as both machines are of the same caliber!
my preferences goes to the MPC60's sound 12bit edition and functions of basic and efficient trs (attack and decay), which essentially allows you to go when creating!
