Dude, you need to put more time into learning the differences between the stock OS and JJOS, anyone would think from this video that there aren't many differences between the two. JJOS unleashes the full potential of the MPC 2500 and 1000, there are so many additions beyond chopping that it's like a whole new machine.
What's up Pico!!! Thanks for reaching out!! These "Initial Thoughts" videos are just my impression of a piece of gear or software as they relate to my studio use. While I personally wouldn't invest in the JJOS software, most viewers of the channel understand why and wouldn't be swayed my initial opinion on it.
The 2500 is a beast and JJOS2XL is a must for any 1000/2500 user. Alchemist uses this mp, its all about how you use it to get the sound you want 💪
JJOS3 is much better imo. There’s just not a lot of tutorials of it
@@ArbusBeats jjos3 is cool just kind of experimental. Its dope if u wanna use a bigger screen though
Deaf by Hip-Hop yeah big screen seems nice but i got the small one,i just think the way chopping works on it is really efficient
I agree!
Deaf by Hip-Hop I got the JJos for my 1000, and I’m mad at myself for not getting it earlier
came here for a review and got some fire! lol great content!
What's up Bryan!!!! Very much appreciated man!!! Thanks for watching!!!
Yo its Dirt Revel here, good stuff. I haven't messed with an MPC in years. I was cleaning my garage a couple of days ago and found a bunch of mpc 2000 floppy's of stuff I did on my friends MPC and some really old tascam 4 track tapes with some EPS beats and maybe some SP 12 stuff too lol. I need to cop a 4 track so i peep my really old stuff and have a good laugh lol
What's up man!!!! It's always good to listen to the older stuff for sure!!!!!!!!!!!
JJ OS3 is insane. Any MPC without at least 2XL or 3 installed is not far from a guitar with only one or strings in comparison. Worth every single dollar. The free JJ OS is not even a tester really.
What's up man!!!! Thanks for sharing!! I agree! While it's not something that I would use, I think it would be good for any MPC2500 power user.
thanks for posting! yeah ,the 2500 sounds good. just because you mentioned it, I was listening a little closer and it sounds like a "cleaner" but no too clean 2000 or so. Peace
What's up Ká Roi! I like it a lot for sure!!! It definitely has a place for my music for sure!
I have JJOS2XL on my MPC 1000. You do need to pay for it but it's a night and day difference from the original operating system. There's always something more to discover in it. I'm sure you'll have a tonne of fun.
Yo! big fan of your comics bro!
What up Bruv!!!! That's what I'm hearing. I've never heard a bad thing about it.
@@VoltageCtrlRtv Thanks. Much appreciated.
Dope. I've had this machine for years. Bought it after my 5000 caught on fire. However, I never could get it to save anything with that JJOS.
Yesss I love to use the step buttons/stop/play start as a little performance enhancer!!! Sometimes messing w the play start I find that I like the loop playing half the time it can be programmed I.e sometimes wish you could do stuff like 1 step loops
That's amazing!!!!!!!!!!!
I stopped using MPC's since the MPC60II, but Have to admit i like the sonic signature of the 2500. One of my homies swears by JJOS. Great video bro!
@SPECIALKNOWBODYS Now... I'm pretty much lawless, I use the modular synth with Elektron gear, I record in Logic Pro X. Then...I was using an expanded MPC60II, I think the software version was v3.10 and a 4 track cassette recorder.
I did have some years rockin' Ableton Live before I got into modular synths.
What up Bruv!!!!! Thanks for watching man!!!! I like the 2500 as well. Congrats on the ModBap sessions!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@TheDaydreamSound Thanks fam, if you're ever in LA you know you have a open invite to rock with us!
@@@VoltageCtrlRtv That's amazing man!!! Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dope g :)
Would love to hear a comparison of a drum break being sampled thru a 2500 compared to a 2000 or 3000
Here you go! ua-cam.com/video/PmH8ecdj1bw/v-deo.html
I’m not sure auto-chopping on JJOS is better but it sure is faster. Paid version of JJOS has the ability to have chop up a single sample without turning it into a load of individual files-can keep sample management way more efficient!
Yep!!! I hear nothing but great things about the paid version!!!
How did you figure out how to modulate and pan using the Q-Link knobs? I've been trying to figure it out but havent been successful
What's up Miguel! Thanks for reaching out! It's pretty easy! From what I remember your able to choose panning from the list of modulation sources.
Good ol smokers delight
dude its 2019... JJOS is the best.
You're correct! It is 2019. Still not gonna buy JJOS.
Why did you erase your latest comment? Heads up! If you’re unable to add anything other than childishness to the comment section, then this channel would truly be a waste of your time. Your destructive behavior isn’t welcome here.
Dope video, question: can someone tell me whats the alternative jjos to version 5.53 as they don't sell passwords anymore for it
Not me. I'm still using the original O.S.
Try going from the free JJOS to the paid. Absolute world of difference. Hard to describe the amount of functions that were added. Theres no going back after that. Best Akai OS to date and it was just updated again in october.
hey man, just got an 2500 but with the free jjos from 2015. Which one should I get, there is one new one now from june 2022, but not sure? Thannks man
You say you do t use the chop sample in sampling so what you doing a lot instead you made videos or planning too?
MIIKE 5 pretty sure he samples a lot of just different sounds. Solo and then manipulates those sampled sounds into something new and musical.
Are These older MPC’s still worth it ? With the advent of newer models like the MPC X and MPC Live Idk if i can give 500 -1000 for these machines since Im used to DAW and never owned an MPC
Id say so i have a mpc 1000 with jjos. Great os great workflow dont see myself ever using a daw or a controller
I've got a 1000 with JJOS and it's awesome. It is its own computer, doesn't need to interface with anything else to work. You turn it on, make beats.
Software hybrids and the sort will eventually be door stops when the computers advance beyond the old hardware and software.
I know one of the new MPC's can be standalone. But look at the Ren, it's already no longer supported. I know neither is the 1000 but JJ seems to never quit with his OS. My 1000 never crashes and is solid as a rock. I wouldn't part with it ever.
@@beatsbeercigarettes preach
chris45627 i bought a mpc 1000 like 2 months ago. I come from fl studio and machine. For me it’s all about the looks and the feels on these old machines. I could probably get a ton of amazing features on a mpc live but then i would just feel like i’m producing on a daw. Just be aware that producing on these older mpc’s will not save you time
MPC 1000 is a better bet for a serious musician than the Live. The latter is a Christmas toy, the former is a serious instrument with JJOS installed.
The MPC Live is a tablet with pads attached, it lags with multiple effects and the touch screen is inefficient to say the least. If you've ever subjected yourself to the horror of iMPC you'll know what to expect - stupid kiddy graphics and patience-testing design. The MPC 2500 and 1000 are keepers for life.
Can u record those pan- and pitch changes as an Automation within the MPC?
What's up man!!! Thanks for reaching out!!! I believe so. I remember doing it at one point but don't take my word for it. I'm really not 100% sure.
@@TheDaydreamSound I took a look @Akais product page and yes q-link slider movement can be recorded.
Nice!!!! Thanks for confirming!!!!
@@TheDaydreamSound You' re welcome.
“If you’re rhythm is challenged…”
It’s called practice. We talkin’ about practice.
Yep! Let's hope for that.
I have an MPC One which can do anything I dream of - and more I guess.
But there's something about these older MPC's - must be the midlife crisis kicking in and the "old things are good too" vibe that comes with it.
I feel you on that man!! The old stuff just make things so plain and simple.
Uh, no. Your MPC One is built the way it is because of what JJ implemented in his OS that is exclusive to the 1000/2500. And it functions with less drama than the live/X/one does.
@@poweredbyWatts You're absolutely correct now that I think of it. That and muscle memory.
The 2500 is the goat!
greetings from Argentina.
Could you change the video settings for automatic subtitles?
the Hispanic community thanks you
Done!
Hold show us how you sample and make a song ?
Does this work with ableton or how does it work?
What's up Jace!!!!! Thanks for taking an interest in hardware samplers! You can use it as a controller as well as have it synced to Ableton via MIDI if needed. Aside from that hardware samplers are generally standalone instruments.
The Daydream Sound aye thanks for replying! I think I might have to get one and can you do more videos on how to use it in the future
@@Jace23x You're welcome man!!! Here's my manual for all standalone MPC Drum Machines www.thedaydreamsound.com/sampler-courses It covers everything you need to know about getting started with them.
I hear you man not a chopper Just want nice drum sounds that's it
What's up Morrisman!!!!! Yep!!!
Love your channel sir
@@morrisman64 Very much appreciated man!!!!!!
Great OS but build and sound quality of 2500 is dreadful
@SPECIALKNOWBODYS definitely more pricey if it has jjos2xl
Nate Jones you just don’t know how to freak it ...sound is banging , it’s about the settings son
SPECIALKNOWBODYS I’m all about the master FX and the bit grunge
What's up Nath!!!! Thanks for watching man!!! Thankfully this one seems to be pretty well built.
Maschine MK3 Allday
Do your thing man! Profess your love for the Maschine MK3 on a video about an MPC 2500. Socially odd behavior is treatable.
What bugs me about Maschine is navigating through sample packs and adverts for crap I don't need. Same with the MPC Live and MPC X. As soon as you boot it up you're looking at garish artwork for sample packs. MPC is all about making your own sound.
Buy jjosxl, you’ll never look back.
