This could be very useful in production and the only real reason I wanted to download this was to insert it into one of my instrument tracks as an additional drum sampler. I already have a mpc4000 but wanted to have more custom drums inside logic that I can tweak. This would be useful if you can get an easy way to add and stack samples on the pads and have them controlled by MIDI.
*Thats initially what I was hoping to download. maybe some day…

In reply to Tomislav Zlatic. One day, i will buy a second hand MPC, for study purposes. Today, i make music with my laptop, but, i know MPC still have its value. Look at the prices, a pretty used MPC costs a liver! This software, anyhow, is a good way to practicing, until the day i can afford a hardware.

In reply to Izmar. I've never used MPC hardware myself but I can see this project being useful for multiple reasons. People who used MPCs in the past, as well as those who want to have a taste of that workflow before purchasing a second-hand MPC will surely get some value out of the plugin. Thanks for making it free.

In reply to Klaus. It's been a while I tested it on Cubase, I'll give it a shot. Are you on Mac or Windows?

I agree… I never intended this project to be a productive tool for music creation. It’s a personal project for me to learn programming.

I don’t think I’d use vMPC2000XL for my own music if I were still making any. On the other hand if you’re cool with using the keyboard shortcuts it’s still a nice way to create drum tracks, bounce ‘m to wav and use ‘m in a project.

Unfortunately at this stage there are still a lot of bugs, but with some help from the community these can be ironed out.

This is anachronistic, but cool lol.

I remember that I always dreamed about getting the MPC 2000 XL, but as I kid I could never afford it. Now I’m glad I can do all this in the box with modern software that is much more user friendly. Even AKAI’s own MPC software is much more user friendly than the old MPC devices ever were.

In reply to Your Mum.

After spending some time with it just now, I’d tend to (almost) agree with you. I don’t know if I’d say “unusable”, but there’s definitely a steep learning curve. I’d say, if one wants to use this thing in their compositions, he/she’d need to sit down and spend a lot of time learning the ins and outs or else trying to use it could be a nightmare. Lol. By the end of my short session with it, I still wasn’t able to get any sound out of the damn thing. Maybe tomorrow!
