Just copped a mint MPC3K to use for a show. I've never used one and I'm RTFM and I'm sure its second nature to you lot but I've got 1 week to program an entire live set on it so I need all the help I can get.
First off, just wondered about the OS version. Its 3.0.
1. Do I need 3.1 for SCSI? Cause it doesn't come up in the Disk Menu? I've got a Zip drive from a 3rd party.
2. And where do I check the RAM and system in general? Doesn't seem to be on main page?
Coming from an SP background though, I must say, its much deeper and much more versatile. But it doesn't seem as instant (wouldn't though cause I'm in the Emu mindset). I've got no sounds so I'm loading some up and getting to grips with the whole "program" structure Akai uses. Haven't done that since the 950 15 years ago.
Thanks for your time.

p.s. Sorry to the SP head still waiting for those cap specs but I'm under the knife here. Will post asap.
p.p.s My bad, this should be in New Jacks I suppose.

yeah 3.0 is old. im pretty sure theres a way to access the scsi with it. i have never used this version tho.
for the ram just go to DISK>LOAD and on the right it shows you how much free sound memory you have. mine says 32636K for 32MB
yo you can email me or instant message me... i think you got my shit but ill PM you. if im sittin around the crib i have no prob helpin you gettin the ball rolling with the machine. I also have 3.11 roms if you need to get a copy of em because i have upgraded to rohan's 3.5 which i recommend to any 3000 users.
