Akai MPC 2000XL with 32MB RAM, Internal Card Reader

“Akai MPC-2000XL – Including CF-Card Reader & Fat Pads & Beat Making MPC2000XL tutorial

The MPC-2000XL is good conditions, with only a few minor signs of use (after all, the unit was manufactured in the 1990s). The floppy drive was replaced with a CF-card reader (hot-swappable), so it’s quite simple to load samples (in WAV format) from a computer, onto the 1GB card (which I am also including in this auction). Considering the inexpensive price of RAM, it goes without saying that the memory has been expanded and is maxxed out at 32MB 🙂

I’ve also replaced the original pads with Thick Fat Pads (black) from MPC-Stuff. They tremendously increase the sensitivity and playing pleasure of the MPC.

Also, pre-loaded onto the CF-card, I have included a commercially available tutorial series, called “Beat Making MPC2000XL.” The series originally costs 39 €, and is an excellent source of inspirational and educational information. It will show you how to get the most out of the MPC (i.e. chopping, sampling, etc.). All project files and samples are included.” Click here to search for MPCs on eBay
