The MPD 24 has a lot of stuff they did not put in there add. Just read a mpc 2500 add and you will see they don't put ever thing it can do ether on it .

The Akai MPD24 will not have the note repeat function.
DaNOC said:I talked to the representative for my boy because he wants this same function, tap tempo so you can speed up your hihats and what not. He said they are working on this, and that , that question keeps popping up. I told him he need to put that function on it. But will they do it? Hum I don't know, Akai is like the Govt, they conspire behind close doors lol ctfu lol Think about it, if they put that tap tempo feature on it people would run and get the Akai 24 before they buy the MPC2000xl. I don't see the button added on this item either, so they might sell this then come out with an Akai MPD24XL lol you should know by now how these companies do lol
That is true akia push the mpd24 pads back to the end of the quarter. that means october or november. I hope they are making improvments to the prototype we have been see all over the netkidomaru said:i was just at guitar center and i asked about the mpd 24 and the guy called akai and he said that there not shipping till october
BigRyan said:Reason why most controllers do not have note repeat and tap tempo buttons:
THEY'RE MIDI CONTROLLERS NOT SEQUENCERS
For note repeat to work, the controller would have to know the tempo of the song. (not hard to implement, if there's a tempo function that can be changed, but still would not be in sync with your host)
For tap tempo to work, there would have to be some raw MIDI command that changes the tempo of your project. I don't think this exists.
DaNOC said:Exactly are you bugging? They wouldn't put Note repeat on MPD24 cats wouldn't buy the MPC no more. They know what they are doing you know they sit down at a table like the Govt lol[/QUOT
Note repeat is nice but that not going to stop cat from buying a mpc. The Mp has other stuff cat love about it. Tell you the truth when I started make music I did not have money for a mpc but if I did I would be on that to day and not reason. But Im good at what I do now so it all good
