MPC 1000 WHAT HAD HAPPENED WAS..

[@matiasriquelmelr6934]

I bought an mpc 1000 black, and the first thing I did was installing the jjos2xl, and it blew my mind because the amount of features that are in the akai os aren't even near to the jjos2xl. 100% recommended

[@DyReckProductions]

Yeah jj did his thing.

[@BDAILEY702]

where and how do you install jjos? if i was to get a 1000?

[@ADMBeatz]

I still use the 1k. JJOS added longevity to this machine. Also the pad upgrade. You can even put mSata SSD in the hard drive compartment. I've made plenty bangers on it. Definitely a easy to use MPC.

[@DyReckProductions]

I feel u.

[@RichyCosa]

I own a blue one with upgraded fat pads and jjos...best sequencer by far. I bought the dave smith tempest, sold it. I bought a sp-404, sold it. Especially if you have midi instruments, the mpc 1000 makes music making so fun.

[@DyReckProductions]

I feel u..I think it was the best MPC for its price.

[@phd_sound]

Why did you sell the 404? If you run the MPC through the 404 compressor you got yourself a killer combo! Best of both worlds. MPC sequencer, with classic Roland effects... I use the 303 and it warms up the 1000 nicely

[@thelefthandofcreation1617]

My favorite thing about about my MPC1000 is how specifically MINE it is. I swapped those pads out. I put a custom wrap on it. I removed and re-soldered a replacement for every single mechanical goddamn switch on that unit. Even now, I'm thinking about adding an SSD hard drive to reduce loading times to a realistic level for modern live usage. Takes a lickin' and keeps on ticking. Even if I don't use it much these days, I may just hold onto it forever because there's always a use case scenario for it.

[@DyReckProductions]

I feel you on that..I would hold on to it..Its nice to make a track on it every now and then.

[@DanielIvan707]

The 1000 is a beast! Probably my favorite and still sounds better than new touchscreen ones.

[@DyReckProductions]

Thanks bro!

[@W6rr10r21]

Next to the MPC60, I think the 1000 had the most impact on the beatmaking world. Like you point out, it made it possible for a lot more beatmakers to get their hands on an MPC. JJOS changed the way Akai Pro interact with their customers. You could do feature requests and bug reports on the MPC-Forums or by mail for the JJOS he then addressed or tried to implement, developing the JJOS more and more overtime. You can see Akai Pro doing that now as well with the latest MPC’s and the MPC software.

Totally agree! I100% ! 've had my mpc300 since late 90s and got my next mpc in 2arly 2000s that was and is MPC1000 Blk , at first I though it was junk... but after JJOS came up on the scene it has become my main DAW , live looping, Live performance tool , I've done tons of shows with it , traveled on the plains , had it always in my bag pack , sampled LIVE gigs and musicians on it , you name it.! .. My MPC1000 recently just stopped accepting any memory expansion RAM chips I had.. have no idea why... so I am back to stock 16MB built in memory ... thats like ... very tough as JJOS takes the space... so I've got like 3.5mb memory left to work with .. unusable ...

The pads and tact switches under the buttons started going out after about 2 years. I picked up a used 4000 and it's much more solid. But for the price and features the 1000 couldn't be beat.

[@johnviera3884]

[@DyReckProductions]

Thanks bro!..I think its a good buy for the price.

[@ZeppyCustoms]

I'm kinda surprised that you didn't touch on the pad situation longer. The original MPC 1000 had a totally different pad system than previous models. The 1000 had individual pads instead of the sensor and pad being all one piece. Not to mention, the individual pads were faulty and would die after a while. They even sold aftermarket cork pads to increase sensitivity that u could install under the pads and eventually akai remade the 1000 and later models had the original pads brought back. I can't remember exactly what indicated the upgrade to the OG mpc pads but you could look at the serial number and tell if it had the new individual faulty pads or if it was one that had the original pad system. That was a BIG DEAL!!!

[@PreciseSense85]

Yes...the dying pads really annoyed me with the 1000 and I switched to FL for good. I'm still thinking about re-buying an MPC just for nostalgia.

[@TangoJordan]

That wasn't a rumor, the JJ OS was a thing, I had it on my MPC1000 and it was THE JAM. It wasn't the first time Akai didn't listen to their customers. And I ended up getting a 2500 because my buttons wore out, but the "brain" of the 1000 was second to none because of the JJ OS.

[@thelabby9998]

Totally on point mate... the mpc1000 was flaw in OS, in rubber pads, woobly and faulty encoder... (but mpcstuff did a great job)... but for the price of One at craighlist it's a beast. I saw improvements in screen too but maybe it would be perfect if this got a vga output like the MV8800. Different era, different machines I wonder... time goes and more and more elevated language abstraction used in new proposals but bare metal machines like this with jjOS it's how an instrument is built. Check also Elk-audio platform to see what I'm pointing...

[@DyReckProductions]

No doubt fam.

[@groovenificent5999]

It's true, the original MPC 1000 pads were trash. You had to replace each pad individually before they made the change with the black painted unit. But even still, without the third party pad upgrade, the pads were still not as responsive as previous MPC's. Outside of that, I loved the 1000. It had heft to it, having an all metal casing, but it was small enough to throw in my bag and go somewhere else to work on music. I never had any problems with the supposed limitations of the original O.S. though. I never tried the JJ O.S. but I hear it is amazing.

[@DyReckProductions]

I feel you..I know the jj os is dope..But I dont think the original was so bad either.

[@mida8s]

so besides build quality whats the difference between the 2500 n 1000 cause i want a mpc 2500 but those prices are crazy and people say the 1000 is literally the same so how true is that?

[@DyReckProductions]

Well with the jjos there basically the same except for the differences in the hardware design layout..If you get the 1000 try too get the black one. I heard the blue ones pads can be janky.

One of the best machines ever made… except the build quality. Features however? Still unchallenged, they shoulda done a mark 2 with all issues addressed and a tad more pc functionality, JJ style os. Woulda still been using that to this day

[@donblake7302]

They used a whole different design for the pads of the 1000 which is why they had a high fail rate. The newer version which were black reverted back to the pads from the 2000. I'm almost certain the 1000 came out before the 2500(unless I'm remembering that wrong).

[@DyReckProductions]

I think you right.

[@TARRS1]

I've always known about the JJ OS, but as an mpc2kxl user, I think the Akai OS is dope. I've never seen the JJ OS in action. Have I been wrong all these years? Is it that good? I was going to get an MPC One, but I may have to go the MPC 1000 route now!

[@DyReckProductions]

The newer mpc's like the one and the x are pretty much advanced and got more capabilities..akai can update the software at anytime since its pretty much the same software...if you get a 1000 you got to make sure its in good condition and them buttons can be a strain on your fingers if they go bad..If you wanted a legacy piece i can understand..but if your just trying to make a choice between the one and the 1000 i would go for the one.

[@eddiehaze3165]

Yea back in 09 i bought the 1000 and used the regular OS about a month. I tried the JJOSXL and i changed my life lol. It really had the features that brought the MPC workflow up to speed with the climate of music production in that era.

Not just the MPC's But like ALL of the samplers. You ever heard of shoegaze? Or the any 90's band that realized the power of a sharp kick/snare? That was in response to hip hop. Which had it's start with crunchy samples of rock drums (and Roland Drum Machines). You have to "widen your gaze" my dude...music is a "let's kick the can" affair. It's not an "Us VS Them" jam.
