MV: only 1 filter per voice, 2 envelopes, 1 LFO"Īgain, you can achieve the same thing with the MV though the multi-effect. "4K: up to 3 filters per voice, 3 envelopes, 2 LFOs, programmable modulation matrix It is just arranged different than the MPC. So, what do you sample at 4 bit? Is this a $600 function that makes the 4K cost that much more?Īgain, 4 samples per partial, 96 partials per patch, 16 patches for a whopping 6,144 sounds in one song if need be. And 24bit cuts your 64 voices down to 32 so this doesn't matter about 24/96. I resample at a lower bit rate all the time on the MV.it is very just doesn't do it the way the MPC does. (and don't tell me ya can't hear the difference between 8bit, 16bit and 24bit!)" "4K: 24bit and 16bit with 8bit and 12bit resampling MV: USB for connection to computer for file transfer between PC/Mac and MV hard driveīet you thought you had me, huh? Well, lets go through this.
AKAI MPC 2 AUDIO ENGINE NOT WORKING SOFTWARE
MV: no external drives or keyboard supportedĤK: USB for connection to computer with free AKSYS software for PC/Mac for graphic editing, library management, and file transfer between PC/Mac and MPC RAM or hard drive MV: resolution 480ppq and computer-like quantizeĤK: read/write SMF (MidiFile) Type 0 and 1ĤK: List, Piano Roll and Drum Grid editingĤK: Track Mute: use pads for real-time track mutes, and Next Sequence: use pads for real-time pattern changes, arrange on-the-flyĤK: SCSI and USB for external drives and QWERTY keyboard MV: 1 Midi In, 2 Midi Out (32 external channels), 16 internal Patches per SongĤK: resolution up to 960ppq and MPC feel (swing, shift timing) And Simul Play mode can play Pattern-based Song and Linear Sequence simultaneouslyĤK: 2 Midi In, 4 Midi Out (64 external channels), 128 internal Parts per Sequence Again, da 4K's sequencer rules over the MV:ĤK: Pattern-based and Linear sequencing. Ya're mixed up between easy-to-use and limited. We're all dummies and ya're da cleva one. Now, ya say again "The Z engine can not compete"? LOLĬlick to expand.Nice one, man. The MV samplin' engine's a rehash of their old S700 engine, it's already outdated. MV: reads 16bit WAV files (samples only, not programs) and Roland S700 sample/program libraries onlyĤK: 16 levels Velocity or Tuning (16 pitch variations of the same sample) MV: 6 analog outputs option (total 8 outputs) and RBUS (Roland proprietary, add $400 to convert to ADAT) digital I/O optionĤK: reads 16/24bit WAV files and samples AND programs from AKAI MPC2KXL, MPC3K, S1K, S3K, S6K, Roland S700, EMU 3 and EMU 4 libraries MV: SPDIF output standard, SPDIF input optional, no wordclockĤK: 8 analog outputs option (total 10 outputs) and ADAT lightpipe I/O option MV: 1/4 inch stereo analog inputs/outputs + phono inputĤK: SPDIF stereo digital input/ouput and wordclock input standard MV: up to 4 samples per note, velocity switchedĤK: XLR and 1/4 inch stereo analog inputs/outputs + phono input MV: only 1 filter per voice, 2 envelopes, 1 LFOĤK: up to 4 samples per note, velocity switched or real-time crossfade via controller (and don't tell me ya can't hear the difference between 8bit, 16bit and 24bit!)ĤK: up to 3 filters per voice, 3 envelopes, 2 LFOs, programmable modulation matrix MPC's are fine.people make hot music with them.but let's not argue technicalities when the MV is clearly superior.Ĭlick to expand.Okay man, ya wanna kno? I'm talkin' 'bout facts, no hype:ĤK: 24bit and 16bit with 8bit and 12bit resampling But people that can't work with both machines side by side, shouldn't sound off that one isn't technically better (MV) than the other (MPC) when it clearly is. Buuut, again, some people like it that way and there is nothing wrong with that. The sequencer and the Z engine are about as deep as a kiddie pool. That is why many people like them and that is okay. And I'll be the first to say that MPC sequencing isn't the end all be all the sequencers.unless you produce hip-hop and are very narrow-minded and, even brain-washed, because some producer you like used one. What, other than 2 extra midi outs, almost usless RAM eating 96k sampling that sounds no better than 44.1 to most people, and XLR inputs does the MPC 4k have that the MV-8000 doesn't have or can't do better. The 4K is limited compared to the MV in almost every way.

Talk about brainwash.And there is no MPC brainwash? If you hadn't of said swing in the other post.I may have left this unreplied. Sequence and Sample performance? The Z engine can not compete.
