Cool project! I love this stuff! I have renovated some early-90's-vintage Roland JV' 1080's that had seen better days and they are now mainstays in my studio. Looking forward to you getting your MPC2000XL back in top shape...
Hey Corry I'm in the process of renovating a MPC2000XL too. I recently got a 2000xl that needed a new sensor sheet and a CF drive to replace the floppy disk drive. Unfortunately my friend gave me a zip drive to upload the latest OS and I didn't check that it was working because I didn't have the plug connection when I picked it up from him so I have had to send for a floppy disk with the OS. My friend owes me. Hopefully I should get it this week so I can upload the OS and change the drive. .
I had a Akai s20 also. my very first drum machine a Roland TR 505 which used AA batteries so I would be outside with it a lot. then I got a Roland R5 and a R8MK2 which I was on for a long time until I got a 2000xl.
Question for BIGBOY TECH. I have a MPC 2000XL I did some work on the jog wheel had to creat a new trace because the traces came off fixed it what ever jog wheel works great, now I have another issue where when you hit Shift F5 and you get the record screen up and you have to use the F keys to ether press PEAK RESET or RECORD . First issue the peak levels are like this ⏹⏹⏹⏹⏹⏹⏹⏹ and I cannot clear it nor will it let me record . What in the mother fucking hell is the issue . If you could shine some light I’d appreciate it because my patience are up. Also when I took it apart I noticed D400 diode had some issues it looked like but the F buttons all work fine so I don’t know if that has anything to do with it . Thanks
That my friend is why I will keep my stance with the Pre DAW MPC's over the iPad series lol. Bro I opened the Live MK1 to put in white pads it was a nightmare. Try replacing the screen on any of these new joints I'm not sure if you could even get the part.
Yo not sure if you know about but I tried to tell you on the ASR 10 show don't sleep on the never talked about MFC42 Filter made for the 2000XL. it's like S950 filter who type ish!!

so..how many MPS'a do you have currently!
cresshead 3... 60ii, 2000xl and the X
My MPC 2000XL is saying "Insert MPC2000XL Disk" and "MPC200XL Boot Rom V1.00!" when I turn it on. What should I do? 😰

BluBuddha Beats oh I am well aware of the mfc42 my bro. Ever since it came out and it had the brackets to attach to the mpc.
@@Bboytechreport Yo I just found a guy selling replicas of the original brackets had to cop them. She's gonna look lovely!!!!
Damn I need one too!
Dope bro, should use my xl more but I got 60 mk 2 and 3k too !!!
That’s one noisey lens on your camera! Looking forward to seeing the finished result.
Lofyne yes it is I definitely noticed. That really really sucks. Gotta cop a better lens
Once you are done the joint will last another 30yrs!!!
❤️👌
1:03 I know that feeling hahahaha
how much u spent on these?? mpcstuff is good but too overpriced imo... one plastic button, one slider cap can cost 10 USD....
Definitely. I'm sure he spent a good 300 on all this.
All those parts must have been expensive
Lol Oh stop it The background looking like launch control at NASA.
Once the sounds are loaded I move faster on an mpc
