    Question:

    Yea I would start with the 1k if you are dead set on a hardware mpc, make sure you upgrade the os to jjos and it can take you far. Let us know what you do in the end and post your beats in the showcase. Good luck!

    A Question for Experienced Producers (Business Mentoring)

    No, I would charge a per beat fee. Also are you going to keep the rights or give them away with the purchase price?

    Question:

    Maybe you should look at an MPC 4k then, they are going for like $600 on ebay as well. The 2k was great in its day but if you have never used one I would advise against it. It will feel PAINFULLY slow to you, I mean you will be waiting on waveforms to draw before you can even edit a sample, not...

    Question:

    Oh man going from the mpc app to an mpc2000xl is going to feel like you took a huge step back in time, and not in a good way. The 1k is a bit faster but not much, if you get a 1k make sure you put jjos on it. What's your budget for this and what are you trying to accomplish mainly?

    Question:

    Yes Ren, Studio and Maschine require a computer. But you can turn off the screens and use the like they are standalone. But who cares if they need a computer, you need a computer to record vocals and to upload the beats to the internet.

    Question:

    yea the typical MPC crunch comes from the older models like the MPC60 or the MPC3000 they have lower PPQ and sample at 12bit vs 16bit. But I think with Maschine, Akai MPC Studio, Ablteon Live around old hardware MPC's are tough sells.

    Question:

    One is not any grittier than the other. They both sample at 16bit 44.1 and have a similar ppq for the sequencer. Can I ask why are you looking at these two and not something more modern? I have owned MANY mpc2kxls and while I do love them, editing is so slow I doubt I could ever go back...

    Question:

    I love both of them but I would pick the 1000 with jjos it's faster and much more flexible.

    New Casio gear

    Man idk, maybe it's just that the Casio brand has sucked so long, or maybe I just don't take to the individual design of their products as of late. They seem unessasarly indulgent, in an era that good design is finally getting the credit it deserves. Just look at akai as of late, even at their...
