In this clip, the MPC2000XL takes on the MPC3000! Listen, to how they stack up next to each other.. And not only the does the Master Output get tested, but also an 'Individual Output' too. Enjoy!

Technical details of 'captures'
I used only Mogami Gold 1/4" cables for this demonstration. Both Samplers are 16bit, which means any one of 65,536 values are available for the converter to choose from.. 44,100 times per second, otherwise referred to as 44.1kHz (the Sample rate).
I used an RME Fireface interface set to 24bit (which means any one of 16,777,216 values are available for the RME converter to choose from) at 48,000 times per second, also referred to as 48kHz (the Sample rate).
The signals were pushed to, what I refer to as the 'humanly-accessible ceiling' of what each Sampler could accept before 'clipping' (aka distorting). Doing this, reaches into the optimum amount of 'Bit depth', thus.. making the most of the available dynamic range from both.
Then, upon outputting from the Samplers.. or capturing the Samplers, back into the RME interface.. I calibrated both RME's using 3 'Sinewaves', one at 250Hz.. another at 750Hz and another at 2000Hz. This was to ensure my 'input signals' going in to the RME's were, as much at Unity as humanly possible.
The thing to note about the 2 different models of MPC in this clip, is that, their Output and Input stages are vastly different. So, it should be stated, that this is by no way a measure of the actual analog to digital converters.. but rather, a measure of 2 independent devices that share some aspects of various hardware.
