“Classic MPC60 MIDI Production Center! If you’re looking at this unit than you know what it is. I won’t give a big spiel about what it does. I’m the original owner and it’s from a smoke-free studio. Selling with original manual and 4 Linn floppy disks. Plus an Iomega SCSI Zip drive (and SCSI cable) with 3 100 mb zip disks: 1 full of drums sounds and 2 blank & formatted. Also over 65 floppy disks of various sounds. I’m including a 10′ Canare snake with 12 Switchcraft 1/4″ plugs on the output side for the 12 individual outs. You can add whatever connectors you need for the the input side. In good cosmetic shape. Some of the buttons are a little stiff and it might need a cleaning inside. Everything worked when last powered up but I am selling it AS IS. Still a great sounding and feeling unit.” Link

“AKAI MPC 60 ,nice working condition, there is one button cap missing but the button still works great!

This is the original mark I series highly sort after

an unrivaled sound that adds so much, a rare chance to get hold of a rare piece of gear ” Link

“For sale is an Akai MPC60 MIDI Production Center. The unit is fully maxed out with all of the available options.

All pads, sliders, buttons, nobs, disk drive, inputs & outputs are fully-functional. You may have to press firmer on a few buttons but that is to be expected for a unit of this age.

The backlight is nice and bright as I replaced the EL backlight inverter a couple of months back. Unfortunately, as EL inverters go, this one emits a high-pitched whine that can be heard slightly through the sound output of the machine (when volume is maxed). It didn’t bother me a whole lot but when I wanted complete quiet when tracking beats I would just open the unit up and unplug the inverter. I was unable to find a way to isolate the inverter to avoid the whine. Besides, I enjoyed having a nice bright backlight (see the picture) so I didn’t mind the tradeoff.

I have thought long and hard about selling this unit as it was my first MPC (bought on Ebay in May 2004); however, I must sell it due to financial reasons (as with my MPC1000). Even as I write this I’m having second thoughts…

There is a good reason why the MPC60 is so revered in electronic music circles. I wouldn’t describe its sound as gritty, rather warm and full.

It’s amazing how inspiring it was to work on this machine. Though it only has 26.2 seconds of sample time and no filters, I was able to create some great stuff on it. Limitation truly spawns creativity.

Metal construction (built like a tank), smooth, silky pads, arm rest….it’s like a drum machine version of a Cadillac. They don’t build them like this anymore! Though I loved my MPC1000 (which I’m also selling) it didn’t hold a candle to the 60!

Though I’m sad to let it go, hopefully it can inspire someone else the way that it did for me while I worked with it.” Link

“Hi, you’re looking at an original Roger Linn designed Akai MPC-60 Sampler, Drum Machine, MIDI Sequencer etc!! This is the original MK1 model which for my money is the one to get being of solid metal contruction before they changed to the later cheap plastic case.

This particular one is an unmolested, one (professional) owner machine. It is in mint condition, with original box, packing, manuals, power cable and 3 of the original 4 Akai sound sample discs the MK1 was shipped with!
# Rock set
# Dry set
# Synth set

The sound of this 12 bit machine is legendary and for good reason. It sounds incredible!

Fully working, disc drive works without a hitch, and ready to make music!” Link

“You are bidding on an AKAI MPC 60 Drum Machine. This machine is in great cosmetic condition and working condition. It is running the latest system vs 3.10 which allows up to 26.2 seconds of sampling time. This machine just was recently inspected by VST in Pasadena, CA.” Link

“Here is my wonderful MPC 60 Mark two by Akai Roger Linn, works the same as the MPC 60, just looks nicer.

Please look this machine up on the internet for information as there is too much to list here.

99 track sequener/ Sampler/ Drum Machine/ Midi etc.

With no up grades so sample rate is as origenal.

The disc drive works perfect and the neon screne is good.

I am now useing a MPC 5000 after years of using the 60 anf this 60 Mark 2, which I imported from Japan. I have included the mains and the trasformer, never use without it or it will blow up.

they are hard to get in the UK, folks are importing them from the USA and Japan and paying fortunes for them.

I dont have the manual you will need to downlaod from Akai.” Link

No configuration listed.

“This Super Cool Gear was lovingly used by a local producer who’s churned out a few major hits. Cosmetically, there are some “age wear” – fading in the color and light surface blemishes, scratches, and bumps from years of general usage. The backlight isn’t working (easy fix for those in the know) but as long if you don’t operate this MPC in total darkness, you can still make out the display easily. The data knob is also loose but still fully functional. All in all, and despite its vintage status, this MPC is in great working condition! This is a MPC with real hit-making mojo so don’t miss out on it.” Link

“Up for auction here is an Akai MPC 60. I bought the sampler a year ago only to unpack it and find out the disk drive was broken. I managed to find a new one in the US. This drive has had less than an hour’s use, so should be good for many years to come. The sampler comes with fifty TDK single-density disks. These are getting expensive these days. Four or five of these have samples on, the rest are brand new.

The unit is in decent shape for its age. A few light scratches here and there but all knobs / caps etc. are present. I put in a new backlight last week to replace the dead one but, I have to admit, it’s not exceptionally bright. It does the job with the lights low, though. The operating system is the 2.02 and the unit does not have the SCSI interface fitted.

Also included is the original manual, but no box unfortunately. ” Link
