Akai MPC 3000 with 10MB RAM

” Selling my wonderful, wonderful MPC3000 with heavy heart. Not been used for a long time (was only really used for about 3 years & has been in storage since). I want to keep this amazing, classic instrument, but can no longer afford to have such a valuable piece of kit unused.
The last & best of the MPCs Akai built with Roger Linn (the series continued, but not with his involvement, so were not really the same) the metal bodied (again stopped after this model) beast beloved of so many hip hop & dance producers (the classic MPCs that are used are the MPC60 MkII & this MPC3000, which was the uprated model as used by J Dilla etc). This one is fitted with an extra 8MB of RAM in addition to the Akai 2MB board, giving 10MB total & so enhanced recording time.
Absolutely superb condition, I’ve owned it since new, looked after it & as above it wasn’t used for a long period of time, only about 3 years at the end of the 90s when I was producing.
Carefully stored in all original packaging (as you can see) it comes with this, its full set of disks & manual (also a large number of extra sound disks which I’ll throw in, but I can’t really remember what’s on them!).” Click here to search for MPCs on eBay
