Akai MPC 2500 With 128 MB Ram DVD Drive and 80 GB Hard Drive! The MPC comes with the power cable, USB cable, original manual and preloaded with sounds and a tutorial I purchased from . All you need to do is plug the MPC into your computer via usb and retrieve the tutorial. Also via USB you can take the samples and use them in other production software. This item has only had minor use though the 3 and - are stuck. Even stuck the 3 key works at times but the - does not. If you are not familiar with an MPC you should know that the jogwheel to the right of the numeric key pad allows you to work around the stuck keys. For example all you need to do is hit 4 and turn the wheel counterclockwise one Despite the two keys the unit is in excellent condition! I wish I had more time to use it but unfortunately I do not. This is an unbelievable deal for this unit! The MPC2500 has set the industry benchmark for beat production. It features a 32-voice drum/phrase sampler with up to 128MB RAM and extensive editing capabilities. Designed for professional music-production environments as well as DJs and other live performers, MPC2500 features a time-tested drum-pad surface, twin on-board effects processors, four Q-Link controllers for real-time control, 10 analog outputs, and a S/PDIF digital output. MPC2500 sports a 100,000-note, 64-track sequencer that can be assigned to four different MIDI outputs for a total of 64 independently addressable MIDI channels. Internal sounds reside in flash memory and can easily be swapped out via Compact Flash cards, an optional hard drive, or an optional CD-ROM drive. A CF card with preloaded sounds is included to get you started. 32-voice drum/phrase sampler with 128MB RAM INSTALLED Two on-board effects processors and a main output-effects processorTwo assignable Q-link sliders and two Q-link knobs for real-time performance control 240 x 64 hinged, backlit LCD USB port for computer connectivity Built-in analog and digital I/O, headphone output, and two MIDI ins / four MIDI outs Chop-shop slices a loop into individual samples with automatic pad assignment Patched phrase synchronizes phrase samples to any tempo without changing pitch Continuous sample track records long audio tracks into a sequence Outputs can be re-sampled Audio input can be controlled with Q-links for real-time control Ten analog outputs, stereo digital I/O Optional accessories include 128MB Ram Expansion (EXM128), CD ROM Installation Kit (including CD ROM Drive) (CD-M25) Analog Input/Output: (2) Balanced 1/4" Inputs (10) Balanced 1/4" Outputs [Stereo L/R + 8 Assignable Outs] (1) Headphone Output Digital Input/Output: (1) Coaxial S/PDIF Input [RCA] (1) Coaxial S/PDIF Output [RCA] MIDI Input/Output: (2) MIDI Input [5-pin DIN] (4) MIDI Output [5-pin DIN] Other Input/Output: (2) 1/4" Footswitch (1) USB [Slave only] Levels: Analog Input = +10dBu Analog Output = +17dBu [Stereo & Assignable Outs] Sampler Resolution: 16bit/44.1kHz Sampler Recording Time: 136sec [16MB/MONO] 24min 28sec [128MB/MONO] Sequencer Details: 100,000 notes resolving at 96ppq 99 Sequences with total 64 tracks per seq 20 Songs with total 250 steps per song Pad Details: 16 (velocity and pressure sensitive) 4 Pad Banks [A, B, C, D] Synchronization: MIDI Time Code (MTC), MIDI Clock Power Options: 100v - 240v 50/60Hz 70W Dimensions (W x H x D): 16.33" x 3.68" x 13.10"415mm x 93.5mm x 332.9mm Weight (net): 13.5 lbs / 6.15 kg (excluding drives and options) Data Compatibility: MPC1000 SEQ, WAV, PGM MPC2000/2000XL SEQ (saved as MID file only), WAV, SND, PGM (Most parameters of PGM file can be loaded.)
