It’s a form of meditation. It puts me in that consciousness state where I need to be. Because it’s an evil world out there, a very evil world. You gotta get past all that shit. Music keeps your soul good (C) Oh No

just in case...

-BACK UP YOUR WORK!!!!!!!Zips are great but once one goes bad crazy work it gone!

-this one might be obvious to some but I never really thought about it.
KEEP IT AND YOUR DISK AWAY FROM YOUR TURNTABLE(if you use one)
My 1200 put a hurting on my Zip disk. I didnt realize that I was sitting it on the damn turntable! Bad Idea.

-Oh and In case I forgot-BACK UP YOUR WORK!

I know you didnt ask about all of this but when I read your question, I got sick thinking about my first dealings with a ZipDrive and MPC

good luck

peace

I don't have an MPC but it seems like it would make sense for Akai to install a USB slot on their machines. No one wants to be bothered with expensive and heavy zip disks or a bunch of CD-R disks. You can get a small USB drive with like 8 gigs of memory for 200 bucks off of Ebay. That would make things much more simple.
