Hey all,
I am just exploring sequencer and sampler options and I figured someone here would be able to help me decide as to whether an MPC (and which model) would be good for me.
Essentially I"m trying to shake up my production workflow to be more live and spontaneous. How I'd like to work is:
1) Finger drum my rhythm phrases, either triggering an esx-1 or internal samples.
2) Record midi phrases and automation into the unit from a synth or other controller.
3) Sequence all of the above in realtime - recording mutes and other automation OR perform 1 and 2 live from the unit.
4) Playback 3) to be recorded into a PC.
Is this feasible with an MPC? I know a few techno wizards use the 1000 as a control hub and so I wanted to investigate this further.
Thanks!
