I'd still get the 5K, it's usable now and got some things going for it over the 2500 such as 2X sized display, etc.
I'm getting one.... Just because I'm a sucker for MPCs I suppose....  |
Thanks dude. Would you happen to know if 5k units shipped after OS2 release have OS2 ready installed? And if so, can these be identified by serial / batch number? What I want to avoid is getting an older (possibly) buggy machine if possible.
Also, and this is totally an off topic side issue. If started your MPC journey using a model for which there is a JJ OS available, would you need to learn the Akai OS in order to appreciate the benefits of JJ? What I mean is if you started off with JJ do you think you would find it annoying and awkward if you didn't have knowledge of the greater annoyance / awkward factor of Akai OS? I'm wondering if someone could save time and stress by starting off with JJ.
