“Akai MPC 1000 (Black) in Near Mint condition with official Akai 128MB Memory Expansion and running the latest (v3.53) version of JJOS2XL ($123 value.) Includes AC Power cable, USB Cable (not pictured), 2x 2GB Compact Flash Cards and Multi-Card USB Card Reader. I do not have the original Printed Materials, but I am including a thumb drive with the manuals (for both the Akai OS and JJOS) in .PDF format.
The JJOS Serial is hard-coded to the unit. The MPC can easily be flashed-back to the original Akai OS. I am including both OS’s on one of the 2GB CompactFlash cards included and will provide the serial number for the JJOS once the buyer has acknowledged receipt of the unit.
This unit was originally purchased as a refurbished unit directly from Akai and has not seen much use. I have kept it tucked-away in hopes that I would get around to using it, but unfortunately, that’s no longer the case. To the best of my knowledge, all pads, knobs, jog wheel, buttons and sliders are fully functional. I will say that this unit is truly in excellent shape and although I could not capture any visible blemishes with my mobile phone camera, there may be some slight (cosmetic) imperfections that are beyond my control. I consider myself to be extremely picky about the condition of my gear, so I try to describe it as best possible. Hopefully the pictures speak for themselves.
NO Physical modifications have been made to this unit at any point, and aside from the 128MB memory upgrade (which just requires opening a small slot underneath the unit as pictured) it has never been opened nor tampered-with for any reason.” Click here to search for MPCs on eBay
” My daily driver but moving on. Has the RAM upgrade for a total of 128MB (max), JJOS1 v4.99 (free version IIRC). Used regularly and tested again for sale. Sliders are good, double-checked for smooth scrolling through numerical values w/o jumps. Pads seem good and all trigger but are original and might be due for a refresh, they’re cheap online. If you’re familiar with the 1000s you know the drill.
