Akai MPC X: DX Kit
Oberheim’s classic drum machine from 1980, the DX, the younger brother of the infamous DMX, think Salt n Pepa, Run DMC. Meticulously recorded through a Neve 1073 Pre-Amp via Mogami Gold cables, into the converters of the original MPC3000 (which many agree.. is the best sounding MPC). Then 'those sounds' are loaded into the MPC X, for a custom 'fit and configuration' into a native 'MPC X Program'. This way, you get the reproduction of an original DX that utilizes, arguably, the best converters, in the MPC legacy, to offer a rich tonality and dynamic range.
Digital downloadable file includes:
A folder containing a '.txt' instruction file, the '.XPM (MPC Program File)' along with 25x .WAVs (Wave Files), that you can drag n' drop onto removable media* and load directly into your MPC**
