MPC4000
The most powerful MPC ever takes its rightful position in the
Akai Professional product line. Along with the MPC2000XL, and the
MFC equipped Ultimate XL the MPC4000 joins the legendary music production
tools of our time. Using the new Z-96 sampling engine the MPC4000
boasts the first full feature sampler ever in an MPC product. A
few of the benefits of the new MPC4000 include: The new Z-96 sampling
engine, combined with a high-performance Intelª CPU provides ultra-fast
processing and 24-bit audio resolution with sample rates up to 96kHz
64-voices, or 32 voices at 96kHz sample rate 16 MB on-board memory,
expandable to a massive 512 MB Balanced stereo XLR-1/4-inch TRS
combo inputs with reference-grade preamps, with switchable phono
inputs to allow direct connection of turntables Four MIDI OUT ports
control up to 64 independent MIDI channels Four Q-Linkª knobs, and
two note variation sliders for real-time modulation control Real-time
control of filter cutoff, resonance, pitch, LFO rate and depth -
and more IntelliSample automates sampling, naming, program creation
and sample assignment Virtual sampling streams sample playback directly
from hard disk Full sampler implementation provides compatibility
with Z-Series and S-Series Multi, Program and Sample files. The
MPC4000 can create everything from powerful beats, to expressive
piano and strings parts Project (.PRJ) files save all sequences,
songs, samples, programs and multi's in a single file New 4-channel
56-bit effects processor (standard) USB host port accommodates USB
floppy, CD-R, HD, MO, ZIP drives for storage, and an ASCII keyboard
for naming USB slave port provides for ak.Sys Network and Control
System software 192 filters/26 filter types with to 3 simultaneous
filters per voice Dual independent LFOs with internal/external modulation
control Internal IDE hard drive (standard in North America Only)
plus external SCSI connection Built-in sample rate converter on
the digital input to eliminate rate-matching problems Large 320
x 240, multi-angle graphic LCD FAT32 disk format is fully compatible
with S5000,S6000, Z4, Z8, DPS24, and most PC's

connection made easy. It allows digital connection without complicated
settings, i.e. sampling rate, digital sync, etc., similar to
analog connections (Digital I/O required).
- Q-Link sample assign: Sample assign made simple. Samples can
be assigned to the keys without knowing the concept of Key Groups.
- Virtual sample: Provided, similar to S5000/S6000. -not supported
by V1.0 release Adatª I/O: Supported (optional IB-4ADT required)

for naming of files. USB Slave support allows the ak.Sys utility
on PC.
- Disk related: Internal 60GB IDE HD and CD Burner (North America
only)
- Disk/File format: DOS disk/.wav sample format, folder-based
disk functions makes it simple to organize sound libraries SCSI:
50-pin Ultra SCSI for external CD-ROM connection

format. The individual outputs (optional) can be configured
as stereo pairs, individual mono outputs or any combination.
All outputs are balanced.
- Effects: EB4JS (EB4M equivalent), supports 96kHz/24-bit.
- Window key: Edit operations are layer-constructed as in the
other Akai Professional samplers using mode keys and function
keys. For the beginners, the basic editing can be made by going
to the relevant pages. For those power users who want to make
more complex edits, pressing the window key opens up the window
to allow further editing of relevant parameters.
- Slice sound: The same as that of MPC2000XL. Divides up the
sample and assigns them to the new program automatically.
- Beat Loop Function: Tempo is calculated from the phrase length
for Pitch Shift and Time Stretch functions to change the tempo.
