Hey! Im really new at this whole mpc stuff so i need a little bit help for some questions, because im getting ready to purchase one of these mpcs(MPC 500 or MPC1000). First of all i want to apologize if some questions are really stupid. :
1) On which mpc is easier to chop samples? Ive seen that it looks really easy on MPC 1000( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9zZNbIcYuY ) . If you want to chop something on mpc 500, do you need to do it on pc ?
2)How big are sample banksfor mpc500 and mpc1000? Like, mpc 500 has only 4 banks? and if i need more than for banks, i just need to change memory card with other samples, right?
3)ive seen on mpc 1000 tutorial video , that it has like beat correction in it(when you record a beat you play, it automatically makes it more tighter so it sounds better and more in time). Is this function also in mpc 500?
4) How long sample can you put on on 1 pad? Is it possible,for example, to put 5 minute song just on one pad? or is there a limit( 10 or 20 seconds? ).
5) can you change pad sensitivity for these mpcs? Like, if you hit it very weak , it just wont make sound, because you need to hit it harder?
6) where is the best place to buy mpc? (is it ebay or maybe http://www.mpcstuff.com/ ? )
Thats it! Waiting for answers. Thank you guys!
