“Akai MPC 3000 LE in good condition. Has the Roger Linn 3.11 OS, not Valixi. Microtech card reader (the good expensive rare one) New thick black pads (MPC Stuff). New backlight. New tact switches on every button. New 3D printed buttons. 3D modeling professionally commissioned based on original buttons and buttons printed at Shapeways. Every single button replaced. New 3D printed buttons have a nice texture to them. New black volume and recording level knobs (MPC Stuff). Also comes with the original buttons and knobs. A few of the original buttons have broken from age but all of them will be included should you wish to reinstall them or sell them or attempt repair.
No reserve. Amazing machine in great condition. Vintage gear, including this one, have marks from years and years of use and are not for perfectionists. Music is not perfect. Good vintage gear is not perfect. If you don’t have experience with vintage gear and their associated imperfections I’d kindly ask you to move on to another auction. This machine has marks and scratches and bruises and is not perfect. It will last for years to come. It will make great music. It is as refurbished as I could manage and is functionally awesome and costmetically pretty darn sharp.”
