MPC 6000 | New MPC 6000


The MPC6000 will be out soon and I’m sure that Akai have taken all the precautions that they can to ensure us that their new model is one of their best yet, are you struggling to believe the MPC6000 will be out soon can conquer their old models? I’m not sure I believe that this is the case.
Here are some of the rumours that have been circulating about the MPC6000. The MPC6000 may sound like it is better than the rest of the MPC series and this is definitely right. The new MPC6000 is sure to have a load of built in features that was previously not available in older models. Often the reason that I, (and many other people) choose to use software sampling rather than Hardware sampling is that the MPC is a machine that doesn’t let you route and modulate through various sources, However the MPC6000 now allows you to do this. So you’re asking me “will they see the end of Software” and my answer is, I doubt it. Software is now such a dominant force in computer music, and even acoustic music that uses computers to process it, that it will be hard for any piece of software such as the MPC6000 to beat it. The reason is that software is way more flexible than hardware and often hardware can be more expensive and a pain to set up, they also take up a lot more space than software. These are problems that the MPC6000 will always have; actually this is a problem that the MPC will also have, because it isn’t software. This probably won’t change; the reason the MPC is so great is because it appeals to the people who like to use Hardware samplers.

You or your people wouldn’t use a MPC6000 software version because the manufacturers in this area are probably better than the manufacturers that make the MPC6000. The MPC6000 would be able to beat many vst programs, and this is the problem that hardware manufacturers run into all of the time. Who knows where the music industry will end up going (production wise) Do you think hardware will once again take over and pieces such as the MPC6000 will reign again. Or do you think that the plug-ins will again rule the world and become more of a dominant force then they have already. Im not sure what will happen but I do know that the Akai MPC6000 will be one of the forces in music that will shake the world, stay tight for the MPC6000 and let’s see what is has to offer us.
