MPC 60 Output mod  Reply with quote  

anyone know about this? me and D opened up my MPC and did some reading, and it looks like my resistors have been modded, I have no idea how it works or what to do tho, and im alittle curious just so I know whats been done to my MPC. I wanna know if theres also more then one way to mod the level of your outputs? Mine are loud as hell, louder then any piece of equipment I have.

Any info would be cool, thnx

the mod is a replacement of a couple lil resistors. mike dean dropped the knowledge on mpc forums. it makes your mpc louder. to do it good you have to have the right amount of boost. its compromises your frequency response.

what's that mean specifically? the compromises frequency responses? I assume Forat would be the place to go for it no?

I really just want to hear from people who paid to have it done and are satisfied with it, would do it again.

Or people who have used both and prefer one over the other and for which reasons you know?

youll get your mpc back soon. forat def is the place to go. you should post some pics when youre done. ill get some from xe. by that freq shit i mean it changes your sound. even if its really slight. you can listen for yourself then post about it. you can load up some of yuor old shit and record it back into your recording medium. im glad my 3k is loud and i dont have to silly around.

i havent really messed with a non modded 60 so I really dont know honestly.

all i know is i have no problem at all with my outputs not being loud enough, they're extremely loud and i get alot of bump outta it, i love it. i wish someone i knew had a non modded 60 so i could load up my shit in it and see how much different it sounds. I think my shit sounds fine, its loud and clear. I'd still like to compare tho, maybe we can do a test or some shit? I dunno

yeah I dunno either, I got a little akai mg614 mixer so the loudness isn't an issue really, but I thought it might bring out the grit, or the subtle 12bitness out moreso than a non modded

but that's a lot of dough, to not konw for sure

I do man, that's like my mixer and most times I'll record to the cassette tape in it, unless it's a beat for someone who doesn't want it that way. i've got a RME FIreface which is ill and I'm saving up for this Toft mixer coming out, it looks too ill
