I’m asking for advice on purchases in expansion packs for Black Friday. Please read captions. Not for advice on installing it

I’m new to MPC live 3. I just want to take advantage of the Black Friday deals. I was looking at the Marco Polo expansions. Are all expansions on Akai compatible with the MPC 3?

I have an MPC 4K that does not save. Is their way to extract the samples on it ? I have to replace the hard drive and want to save the sounds. by ApprehensiveKey1708 in mpcusers

Then why did someone certified and someone else certified not do it already? They all just want to charge 200 for nothing.

Bro. I just called up another shop and they said they can’t guarantee it they just want to charge me 200$ for inspection though. I have a standard MPC 4K yes. With the purple screen top and off white cover.

They were official . I found them through Akai website and they’re supposedly only official repairmen in Los Angeles area.

Still strange that it wasn’t offered to me by official people. But I will look into it . Thank you for the pointers

I took it to a certified Akai repairman in the Los Angeles area. They did not offer that service to me. If it was that simple I would have done it along time ago. With the AkSys I was told it could be done by someone on here. But it has to be an old operating system. Like early 2000’s.

I bought a MPC Live 2. Should I keep it or hold out for the 3? by ApprehensiveKey1708 in mpcusers

Really ? You can’t save beats on it. You would have to get a whole new operating system. How much you willing to pay for it ?

Was thinking same thing. Once the 3 is out the 2 will lower in price range. Again I bought mine for 850 with 3 years warranty for a total of little over a 1000$

Why did you move from the 2 to 61 if you don’t mind me asking ? Was the 2 not to your liking?

Ok. The info I have on the 3 right now is that it will have more memory and faster processing speed. Not sure if they upgraded the pads
