«  A superb machine, but also very rustic ;) »

- Midi In / Out, Audio out stereo headphone jack, unless you add the optional extension card (8 out)

- No effects but optional, reverb and delay I think.

- No integrated (sampler) sounds, you must either add your sounds by the mean of the disk drive
'm a SCSI, ZIP or CD-R, the zip drive to save your project, not possible to burn CD-R, it just makes office reader bank.

- The sequencer is very good with a swing mode that gives your fishing mix,
the sequencer BAR is very simple with no frills.

-

UTILIZATION

- It is rather simple to use, I would even say that when you know
well it is very ergonomic (feeling).

- The manual is pretty well translated and simple, because the machine is too.

- The functions are also accessible by buttons leads immediately
mode concerned.

SOUNDS

- The sound very good and should only do your sampling
if you do not put enough level in your source it will not be good, for example, also straighten your samples before sampling. Slightly méttalique
but it is minimal, also a level of output that's overkill AKAI.

- The pads are very sensitive unless your MPC 20 years without changing this one.

OVERALL OPINION

- I used two years while I had two.

- The very simple but also very basic feature, good for music
based sample as Hip Hop :)

- Today is a machine for fans, it must have been used to
appreciate, as many will find it very limited, with PC as Ableton or even some machine that looks like the kind of tools. Also if you want to get yourself one of these machines, think or do if a revision because it is very old.
