Transforming an MPC1000 to a 2500!




OK, if this works, it's truly amazing. It's also pretty surprising that no one has thought of this before. Apparently, a software mod has been created, which basically transforms one of those cute lil MPC 1000's into a full fledged MPC2500.

The 2500 is a beast with tons of features, but the $2000 price tag is likely to deter most users.

Features Like:
Direct Record feature
Chop Shop feature

Word on the street is that the mod developer is going to eventually start charging for this as he works out the bugs. It shouldn't be too far in the future when we see a similar modification for the other MPC models.

Be warned that we haven't tried this ourselves, and are not responsible for blowing up or crippling your machine. Additionally, the site is in Japanese but i've linked you to the translation. It's not hard to read.

A brave friend is going to try it out and let us know what happens. We'll post his findings soon.

Back up your files/OS and have fun!
