    Akai Professional MPC3000Published on 10/31/08 at 16:00
    4 MIDI Outs/2 MIDI Ins, built-in SCSI, 64 sounds per program, and filters, are all great featues. Screen could have been designed a little larger.

    Price paid

    $1,400

    UTILIZATION

    Fairl straight forward. If you've used a professional drum sequencer you should know how to operate this model within miuntes.

    Built like a TANK!!! Unlike the MPC 2000 the MPC 3000 is sitting on some weight!!

    SOUNDS

    Definitely Satisfied with the overall sound quality. Crisp clean sounds whether they are sampled & tweaked by me or third party software disks.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Very easy to use, & it's doing exactly what I ask of it.

    Seems a bit dated by todays standards. I wish it had effects but judgeing by what i hear about AKAI doesn't have the best effects. Nothing can touch the timing feel of this beast and to this day it is STILL the only sequencer i use.

    Price paid: $2200

    UTILIZATION

    Very easy learning curve. I have not had such fun since my ENSONIQ EPS days. Once you get into this everything is second nature. I just wish it had a grafical screen.

    Durability: Like a BULL on steroids! My son got a piece of gum stuck inside my floppy and it still worked like charm! (yes the gum is out)

    SOUNDS

    Great Quality for HIP-HOP! That's mostly what i use it for.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I have have RM1X,MC909,and MP-7 sequencer(s), but the MPC is the only one i use. It's still that good! If i could put a pair of 42(.)(.)double dees, i would marry her
