SCSI interface !!! MPC2000XL software !!! - 01/12/00 08:54 AM

Hi guys ...
Is there any nice software for the mpc2000xl?
Can it communicate with my pc ?
I need to know if there is a way to connect MPC2000xl to my pc ... it has a scsi card ...
Does a Mac Zip Drive funtion on the MPC ?

Thanks !!!

I bought an external SCSI Zip drive (MAC or PC compatible) for my MPC and it worked right out of the box without any extra software.

I know, I know, this SUCKS, but pc's and MPC's cannot talk to each other via scsi. Read up on some of the akai sampler forums floating around on the web and they all say the same thing. You need to use something like a zip to be the mediator. the MPC cannot and will not recieve scsi information from you pc like the S series do. This is a complete and utter bummer. akai needs to get off their asses and fix this bug if it is an OS issue, and if it is hardware, well, shit, start over!


sorry man, I just learned this a few days ago and my heart is broken as well. No windows editors for the mpc..... :[
