No. I replaced the stock pads with red mpcstuff pads, and 2 sets of corx. No change at all, and these pads are harder than stock. They just look nice. No change in function and I had to fiddle alot with the scew tightness on the PCB board just to get an response for the pads. I do love the red though.
@@tylergates4075 its a big downgrade from the mpc studio from 2012. Majority of features you still need to use a mouse. Small screen is microscopic and forces you to work on the computer screen unlike the old studio.
