The Urban Percussion Loops library contains 100 MPC PGM files for the MPC2000/3000/4000 versions that auto-load all 200 percussion loops included in the library. MPC1000/2500 versions feature easy sample loading via USB.

The loops library is available on MPC Zip Disk, MPC CD-ROM and by download. Prices start at $39.95.
