Akai MPC4000: 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 4000, for a custom 'fit and configuration' into a native '4000 Program'. This way, you get the reproduction of an original DX that utilizes, arguably the best converters, from the MPC series, to offer a rich tonality and dynamic range.
Digital downloadable file includes:
A folder containing a '.txt' instruction file, the '.AKP' (Akai Program File) along with 25x WAV files, that you can paste directly onto a USB Drive* and load into your 4000, Z8, Z4 or compatible MPC, such as a Renaissance, MPC5000 etc.
