With interest in hip-hop at an all-time high, Akai understandably want to reach out to new customers. In SOS January 2007 I looked at the latest update on the 'classic' MPC feature set, the MPC2500, and was delighted to find that Akai had managed to introduce a set of important improvements without compromising the streamlined operation central to the unit's appeal. The MPC series of hardware sequencing and sampling workstations have an undeniable cachet in the field of hip-hop production, and the enormous success of this style of music in recent years has ensured their continued development well into an age otherwise dominated by computer-based MIDI + Audio sequencers. Every 2000 or 2000XL I had after that, I took better care of and it was a non-issue.īut I do understand your hustle.Akai's famed Music Production Centre goes mini. My first MPC 2000s LCD screen blew a few pixels because I never turned my unit off. The cause of this is mostly due to catz keeping their MPCs on when they are not in use. The 2000 and XL LCDs will eventually fade or its pixels will burn out. There really hasn't been any issues yet with the MPC 1000, 2500, and 4000. The issues with LCD screens are with the 20XL models. half the price of one repair, not considering labor, shipping handling and waiting. You dont have to keep paying for repairs. Also, it extends your return period by double and extends your price match time period by double. if they do the same repair more than 3 times, you get a check written in your name for the same amount of money that you paid for the MPC.
If you get the warranty with guitar center, you WILL have your gear looked at with FIRST priority and they will get it sent back to you within 10 days. getting one fixed is around.300-400 dollars.
the lcds sometimes just fade or get damaged or whatnot over the course of time. I too work at guitar center, and the most common repair I've ever seen on an MPC is the screen.
