“I am selling my amazing Akai MPC1000 sampler/sequencer – a modern classic icon, used by the likes of Kanye West, DJ Shadow, Bonobo, Autechre and many, many more*… but if you’re looking then you probably already know that.
Trust me, this will change your musical game!
(*even little indie-electro bands from south London!)
The unit comes with a power cable (not pictured) and the original 128MB Flash Card containing the MPC Sound Library (over 100 drum samples and other sounds).
The Flash Card connects to your computer (I use a USB card reader) so you can add your own samples and sounds to the card, and very easily upload them to the MPC’s memory.
The unit is in perfect working order, with one or two very small imperfections to the casing, and one of its rubber feet missing, but this is easily replaced.
There is also some velcro on the bottom from where I used to attach it to a keyboard stand. I have left this on in case you want to do the same, as it’s a good idea to secure the unit to a stand if you’re using it live. I’ll include some new reverse velcro pieces in case you want to do this.
This is an amazing piece of musical equipment and I’m sad to be parting with it. It’s super powerful but super fun, with some serious capabilities under the hood.”
