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 easy to create beats, manage sounds, etc. In fact, these things are all quite clumsy, but very much like the real 2000XL.
100% mimic the digital per-voice filter. It contains an approximation which I tweaked by ear, so it’s likely a setting on the 2000XL doesn’t sound the same in the emulator.
emulate the optional EB16 FX board.
Quick Start
1) Grab the macOS or Windows installer from the downloads page. Ubuntu x86_64 binaries available, and for openSUSE, Debia, Ubuntu and Fedora there are ZYpp packages.
2) Check out the keyboard shortcuts, and grab a copy of the original 2000XL manual.
3) Dump your samples and other files you want to load in /Users/you/Documents/VMPC2000XL/Volumes/MPC2000XL. This is also where anything you save will be stored.
Warning: Files in that directory are renamed by the emulator just like on the real 2000XL! This means you shouldn’t put the only copy of some important files there. Your data might become corrupted.
