VMPC2000XL
VMPC2000XL is an emulator of the classic Akai MPC2000XL sampler/sequencer.
Features:
- Linux, macOS and Windows support.
- Available as standalone applications and VST3/AU/LV2 plugins.
- Load/save most of the MPC2000XL file formats: APS, ALL, PGM, SND, MID, WAV.
- Raw USB volume (CF card) support with Akai FAT 16.3 filenames.
- Every screen and function tries to be 100% like the original.
- Multi-track direct-to-disk recording, a.ka. “bouncing”, to WAV with offline rendering option.
- Basic MIDI in/out.
VMPC2000XL does not:
- Mimic the signal path, analog inputs/outputs so it doesn’t make your samples sound “warm” or “dirty”.
- Make it very easy to create beats and manage sounds like modern equipment and software. Its only purpose is to emulate the MPC2000XL.
- 100% mimic the digital per-voice filter. It contains an approximation which was tweaked by ear, so it’s possible that a setting on the 2000XL doesn’t sound the same in the emulator.
- Emulate the optional EB16 FX board.
