The effects can be used in small amount they spend well and it would be best when even a multi-effect exerne but hey it's not essential.
Very good sonorits, it is so pleasant that I let squences shoot for hours (in fact as many problems clippings of randomized sound which seems will r by the new OS I expected GGGGGGRRRRRRRAAAAAAAVVVVVVVEEEEEEE)

I love his big portabilitsuper (that is, among other things is to I have prfr his big sister MPC2000), its usb prt very fast and convenient for exchange bw / Mcf
This is my first "groove machine" so I can not really compare, price quality ratio is acceptable even if it's hard to get out 1000euros plus 120 for the memory AKAI (required)

UTILIZATION
There is an adjustment period (it can be long if you have never touched the mao), but it comes pretty quickly.
I do not have the manual. The problem is that it is for akai base, and was quick to pass at least JJOS1 when we know what we can do with it.
SOUNDS
Sounds it is we who put them, so it's silly to judge whether they are good or not. The whole point of the thing is to put your own sounds. Basic sounds was inside I was horrible but since I bought it used I do not know where it comes from, and then I hate rap (unless it is sufficiently experimental) so necessarily ... If you want to buy something with samples already ready is not what we need to buy, in my opinion.
Otherwise I can not find a quality loss in the samples that I put in the mpc, they are as I heard from the computer. (See can be better I do not know ...)
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for about 1 year.
No I have not tried it but I was looking for something that is independent of a computer. That can be used without the need to bring a computer. And so it is perfect for that.
What I like most is the ability to play with the sliders on the pitch, and also to trimer (set where the sample starts) by editing the sample. It can also make the slider on my MPC1000 but I can not do that in a specific configuration. I do not know if this is a bug or what but in my case it makes this function unusable. But it is good enough for me to do to edit the sample.
I found the quality good value, but we must take into account everything that can be customized after expensive.
With the experience I remake that choice rather than 2000 times.See less39mutah

The buttons are a fairly average quality and deteriorate over time, but change the price of a welding workshop not too complicated.
UTILIZATION
Once past learning, which is not too laborious, we found it quickly when you've already teased hardware or software sampler.
The firmware upgrade to JJOSXL2 transforms completely into a war machine and you realize you can really do without a PC, which I still doubt the reliability on stage (yes, I become old fart).
on the other hand, do not be afraid of the language of Shakespeare: useful resource materials are in English. However, this really is not rocket science. Certainly, one can moan over the ergonomics of a software solution, but I've never experienced a crash or lag or mass problem and the buzz that follows.
The sequencer is very comprehensive, past learning.
SOUNDS
The converters are rather neutral. There is not the "grain" of the old MPCs but this is not its purpose: it is CD quality, period. So, we can achieve the treatment samples for PC then pick it.
When you upgrade the pads to the "fat pads" mpc stuff, feel changes dramatically! you can start playing beats like tutorials Jeremy Ellis with a pretty royal touch I must say.
OVERALL OPINION
With more than two years. Concerts, improvisations, residences ... I'm always happy. It controls my expanders and synths quietly, while providing a more than adequate sampler with a speed of creation.
In short: I love itSee less130Spektah

Decent Mid - Level Sampler
Published on 11/13/12 at 16:51The MPC1000 is a 64-track sampler/sequencer. It comes with 16 MB sample memory as standard, and can be expanded to 128 MB. It supports a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz, in stereo or mono. Its features include a USB port, an internal CompactFlash card reader, two MIDI inputs and outputs, and effects and multiple analog outputs as standard. Its sequencer's resolution is 96 ppq.

UTILIZATION
Precisely, the advantage lies in the MPC compared to other "samplers / sequencers," I find it really intuitive, someone invested in work will manage the machine perfectly great 4 months max after anything at the creativity is another story .. But what is "know your machine", the MPC is really easy to access the menus are simple. The manual is also clear throughout.
SOUNDS
As said above, no specific style of music. At the sound, well, yeah, it sounds! You put a "chack boom boom" in your GPA, it will remain a "chack boom boom" after level to really "sound" your sound, make clean (make a prod pro anything), it leads to the " mastering ", which is another story, and the same for all machines ..
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for about a 1 year and a half, and I enjoy it like crazy, because of its "intuitive" as mentioned above. You can easily get a create a beat if we modicum of creativity. Value for money (600euro for me) seems honest. I would do this choice without hesitation, because it allowed me (being great beginner) to understand the basics of creating a beat. I tried to SP505 rolland before buying, and I totally preferred MPC1000. In addition, it is a great sampler! I use ableton parallel machine, and I NEVER sample above, still on my MPC! Since it has a "line IN CAR, I plugged my turntable over and sample loops from vinyl (besides the work loop itself is also intuitive). Basically if you're thirsty creation ( intuitive) in which you used your fingers instead of a mouse and a keyboard, GO!See less43yeezyjulien

OVERALL OPINION
I have my mpc 1000 for 1 year but I have not found the time to use it for a few months. I admit I had a little trouble at the beginning to immerse myself in the record, as it is imperative to read it if you never had a machine like this before, but after some effort I am completely satisfied . What I like most is the ease and speed with which one can sample (when understood of course). This becomes even fun to assign your own samples on the pads and play them.
Regarding the price, I've always found the price of such devices a little high, but the mpc offer many possibilities. It can be used in different ways. The fact that mpc can replace many other devices in the home studios may justify the price.
It does nevertheless a great versatile machine which is essential for all fans of sampling.See less00Psycom

* Outputs can be re-sampled
I paid 800$.
All the features you would need. You able to sample, edit that sample and EQ that sample in one board. Add your own sounds and make music as a professional. The downside, is the small LCD, it isn't as friendly as a computer monitor. And when chopping a sample you don't have the zoning feature as the MPC 2000XL or do you have the option of time stretching. But other then that, all is good with it. What more can you ask for in a portable music production center?
<a href="https://en.audiofanzine.com/sampling-sequencer/akai">https://en.audiofanzine.com/sampling-sequencer/akai</a>
It is quite simple to use. The manual explains everything so clear, but at times you will have to call upon outside help to navigate through some of the features. I would change the interface, I am so comfortable with it, that I can operate the MPC in the dark, sometimes.
It is durable, My Behringer mixing board felt on top of the MPC from the desk to the floor and the didn't scratch it or damage the screen or the board. So that is tough machine for me. No repairs have been done. The pads are tough too, because I been banging on them for a while and still they uphold the pounding.
No complaints about it. Just the quality I need for making professional sounding music.
Good construction and quality.
I love it. Everything you need in a portable machine. The only downside is the missing feature of time stretch and zoning. I carry this lightweight as if it was my own laptop. So small to fit in a backpack without putting a lot of weight or pressure on the shoulders or back.

The only real weakness of this new generation, it is the dial which, at times, lack of precision.
The real advantage over the older generation is the CF Card, formatted to FAT 32 (therefore, readable by a Windows and a Mac OS).
UTILIZATION
The interface of the MPC 1000 has proven itself. It is really fun to do with her.
In my use, I cut samples of PC, the different patterns of MPC, and I pass on a PC for sequencing.
If I need to add notes of my synth, sampler I prefer the line of notes and play in the MPC.
Large defects of the MPC:
- Export into separate tracks: Can not
- Enregisrement the audio during playback: it would be a more
The advantages of MPC:
- No slowdown, no lag, no crash
- All in one solution, if desired
SOUNDS
Well, I want to say that the sound comes out of the MPC is fairly neutral and that it depends on which injects samples.
Level effects, not much. For my part, I only use three effects: compressor, reverb, and EQ, and used in small doses, they do the job.
For grain, nothing prevents the use of a sampler upstream.
OVERALL OPINION
I bought a few months after its release (red and blue model) and is always at the center of my setup.
I subsequently earned an MPC 3000, but I realized I could not do without the latest Akai, including CF Card!!
This gives me a huge gain of time on my way to work:
- I sample in my PC, I cut, I matter and I mumuse on MPC. If the sample does not work, I start again with another sample ...
- I import several drum kits and I tried one by one live up to getting the right kick or snare that sticks to the sample.
In conclusion,
+ Advantages: reliable hardware, ease of mpc, the effectiveness of CF Card
- Weaknesses: export into separate tracks!!, The memory loadSee less31theaudioandvideoguy

UTILIZATION
There is no need for a manual if you are already use to how the mpc works. The 1000 will be a breeze if you are use to them. If its new to you, then you will need the manual, because its nothing like using a software. There are a ton of options and sub menus to navigate through.
SOUNDS
Sounds are ok, You will def. have to add your own kits (drums). Because the stock kits just flat out aren't that good! But once you load your own kits you will get a nice gritty sound!
OVERALL OPINION
I love the whole MPC brand, the 1000 makes it really affordable for us on a budget. BUT, the 1000 will not compete with the more expensive models for several reasons. One reason is that the screen is so small and basic, you can really get lost going from on menu to the next. Or trying to do your chops on a little barely green lit screen that makes it really hard and strains your eyes. Also, the 1000’s pads arent as nice as the more expensive models. But If you can look past those issues you will LOVE it! Trust me its worth the buy, plus they go for around 800 on eBay now. But don’t expect the prices to drop any less than that. The MPC’s hold their value really well!

Plus the stock sounds on it are horrible, you will def need to upload your own kits as soon as you power it up. Do not use any of the stock kits and sounds. They are very unprofessional and everyone will be able to tell you used the stock kits.
SOUNDS
It has a nice quality sound. It doesn't sound as warm and thick as other samplers I have messed with but, when you know what your doing you can make it sound really warm and thick. Basically it doesn't anything extra to the sound like lower bit rate samplers do. What you put in is what you get back out.

I really love the MPC 100 because it was my first but I think I might be upgrading soon. Everything just seems so hard to do on a little screen, that makes it very hard. But for the price you really cant beat it. You get a MPC (legendary machine) for a low price and can still do almost everything the others can. But It.

SOUNDS
Can't really rate or judge the sounds as erased the preset/stock sounds that came with my unit but I can comment on the A/D converters which are clean. This unit does not sound as warm as the mpc 60 or the mpc 3000 but you can get the unit to sound just as warm by importing warm sounds into. So with that said if you were to run all your sounds off an S950 then into the mpc 1000 you'd be in business.
The onboard FX are basic but really clean and useful as well as simple to use.
OVERALL OPINION
This is a great unit especially for those who want a modern aged akai mpc. It's quality has some great onboard features. The pads (depending on which verion you get) suck and break down really fast. There is a pad upgrade kit you can buy on ebay though that fixes the issue.
The failing pads are normally on the Blue Mpc 1000 the Black Mpc 1000s are fine.. I don't like the stock OS that comes with the Mpc 1000 so you'd might want to look into upgrading to the JJSO series which turn the mpc 1000 into a Mpc 2500

UTILIZATION
So there really ouf c, c the workhorse of the MPC => gear is simply the easiest to use I've ever used. C to obtain such amazing results with so few headaches. Within minutes you can make a complicated beat of 64 tracks, with a feeling that I never found on any sequencer.
ENJOY THE MPC.
SOUNDS
In my case (R & B / New Jack / Hip-Hop), c not bad at all, Pette sound good, but it is still a bit too clean for my taste. The sound is pretty crappy given with, because it sounds too "carnival". But when you sample the good c.
The term is exemplary, and anyway these pads are proven (the suicide rate among musicians has plummeted since Aker launched the MPC60).
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for a week, and what is egg c how fast you can make a beat of the same size as those of trade (and because everyone uses mpc). Otherwise the scope of USB and flash card c super practical and not compare with the crappy stuff we had before (scsi). You can use the pc (or mac in my case) to store a huge wav sound bank and we support that you need in a "drag and drop". I won a lot of time with this function.
In short, my view is that 1) it is better to take it a MPC 2000XL
2) if you are looking for a killer shit beats R & B or Hip-hop 5min timer and without too damn nose in a computer then look no further you have found ...See less20DJ Aydree

I put 8 because "only" 128MB Internal and USB is only for the exchange with a computer. (10 in my opinion is reserved for more advanced machines)
UTILIZATION
I did not know too the operation of the MPC and I was nervous as editing and menu navigation is fatidieuse (bad experience with a manual in English 2000), but in fact keunini!
I recognize that without the manual I will be kept con front of the machine, but after 1 or 2 hours a bone up and I was already a test piece!
menu is accessed by pressing a key and a pad and another button to return to the basic ultra simple.on to walk through each menu with the scroll wheel and sliders.
the manual is very well done and clear, can be the order of the chapters could be more pertinant aurra (?), but hey it is doing really well. by around 100 against the pages (type ream) held by two clips ... it should not live long in this great state ...
mute the track is great for live or work on a single sample (a condition that by putting a track / track)
the assignment of effects, outputs, pan filters is easy ... (more bleubox can be used to make the prog on pc; nikel)
I really take pleasure in playing with this little, because you can really play with more than programer, it's great.
transfer data between PC / mpc is fast. (if that means anything ...)
on the other hand for melodic track is better to have a midi keyboard and a sound module or synth because otherwise we galley. for the rest it is a treat.
SOUNDS
As described in other reviews this is a sampler, it depends on the user, what you put veut.les factory sounds are a very good rotten, sometimes strange or interested, but it depends on the style and above all tastes.
then the effects there, deception ... they are really not up to what I expected ... except the eq and comp was parfoit the impression of not having the effect assigned correctly, but if damage .... (to me it is not so bad because everything is a reworking of tables + effect modules.)
filters are well and good to allow variations (recorded in the sequencer, has warned however not be too greedy, 100,000 events all inclusive, no more)
otherwise the "grain mpc" is there.
I put a 7 because of the effects.
OVERALL OPINION
I do not use it for a long time but very quickly the beast mastery, provided they are methodical and utiliuser the manual (at least initially)
the pad and mute function trak, genial. the "Original Option" too.
The downside: the effects.
I read a lot (forum, manual ,...) on a lot of machines (thank you AF), post a few forums (thank you AF bis), and I confess that if I were rich my choice will be more focused on the Roland MV8000, because it raproche lot of those apps.
I buy the mpc 1000 to replace my apps and I'm really happy (although I always use Sound Forge for the reverse, time stretch). 1000 euros and all options (except 128MB) is there's no complaining (even at 100 euros y'en aurra always say it's too expensive ... lol)
I have not too much experience of this machine, but I think I do it again this healthy choice hesitation (except with twice the budget, see above)
is short of the ball (and personal).

but I want to highlight 256 samples for 128 mo, which is strange for this part of the sampler of this machine. (eg e-mu sampler 1000 sample for the same memory less)
There's the "effects" in 2005 if it has little dare call effets.Heureusement Os v2.1 that provides the necessary delay all good machines that comply.
Most mpc: 64 track.
100 000 evements way from some sequencer.
Thankfully Aki was an update (OS v2.1), which raised its level before the OS because it was limiting the MPC1000.
UTILIZATION
Not obvious at the beginning, even for an expert in "machine", they have not the same resonance that most synth manufacturer akai.En in fact it is mostly made to be used in master and not esclave.les users cubase sequencer or other pc / mac might be a lot derouts.On can not filter the information that goes into twelve o'clock twelve o'clock mpc1000.Synchro abroad as a slave to Cubase and I think it's worse.
No possibility to delete events in real time, have to stop the current song to do so.
We must also stop the sequencer to load new samples.
Not only have recess of the machine live. (But also good for most, but even more so than I think).
It should connect and disconnect the USB cable when you want to load the memory card and restart the machine can be in the long run the USB will morfler.
The wheel is not dynamic if you turn a quick change much, the course is not.
Veloci the pads is quite short and nothing to do with a synth, not as an end. We must remember that the mpc, stems from the MPC60 (released in 1988, 17 years anyway and a very great evolution since the lelectronique ) that the start was more a vocation batteire ELECTRONIC, very powerful that time.
Everything seems to be the details but when you have already used many machines it's pretty uncomfortable.
SOUNDS
The sound has a good dynamic trs, apart from the effects and filters.
OVERALL OPINION
There's good and well a good start to the super sampler sequencer but it lacks some innovation to this mpc, without making an MPC4000 either, so that it would have had much more effect and better quality, a time stretch in real time, not having to wait for the sample repreinne to change filter applies. If not for a fig pieces is good but is the vocation or scnique this machine then? Basically a can be a very good complement of battery, if you look at a musical variation on the tv and other kinds taratata star acadecrotte or stuff like that, the drummer on MPC1000 or MPC2000 so this is only a complement drummer?? can etre.Meme if the MPC2000 has had a major success in the great years of house or techno minimalist ........ lol
Everyone does not use the mpc to make rhythm either lol fortunately is a fairly monotonous.
If it is for the Yamaha sequencer is pure as well, even better.
If it is for the sampling, there's too much gap compared to the conccurents alas this increasingly rare.Peut to be the fact that as akai yamaha are not only electronic instruments, crisis requires.
The USB is good but if everything must be cut, not cool, and then it's not as fast as the scsi for large program.
And the good groove of MPC60 is the same as in the competitors now, so good ... to stop the myth MPC60, which also has its reputation on its 12 bit as of SP12 in e-mu.La MPC60 MPC1000 is not!. And if a musician is expected not groove machine, you do it yourself, a la mano, as a joke lol grand.sans.
For the price I found nine overall average.
I prefer more the solution sampleur.Surtout + sequencer for live.
I had a lot of machines in the hands which allows me to place it in a park new or used.
Last day V2.10:
Fortunately for the Akai MPC1000 has an update that gives it a tournant.Elle back in my estime.Un LFO, envelope filter, a delay, the stretch very fast (not in real time), slice function, modulation effects in real time, the possibility to put a hard drive internally, to the possible effect / filter to an external audio source ... etc. .. . It all really missed it this machine.Maintenant a real high on the sequencer / sampleur.La little sister of the MPC2500 that she looks really pretty good.See less10
