It was also to be used as a ‘gateway’ operating system to the far more advanced paid-for JJ operating systems, such as the JJOSXL and forthcoming JJOS 3. The idea behind the free JJOS was to fix all the outstanding niggling bugs present in the official Akai operating system and to make some small workflow improvements. In 2007, a rumoured ex-member of the Akai coding team (nicknamed ‘JJ’, which stands for Japanese Jenius, a name given to him by his followers on ) released his own (free) version of the MPC1000/MPC2500 operating system. If you are an owner of an MPC1000, you are probably aware of a few bugs that (at the time of writing) remain unresolved by Akai, even though they are currently on OS version 2.13 of the official MPC 1000 operating system. So, let’s reassess where the free JJOS is now compared to the official (and we assume, final) Akai OS for the MPC1000/2500. Since I originally wrote this JJOS review a few years back (which was written for JJOS 3.08), this free JJOS has received a few new updates and tweaks (especially for the MPC1000). In this updated JJOS review, I’m going to take a look at the ‘free’ JJ operating system which is currently version 3.15 for the MPC1000 and 3.10 for the MPC2500.
