I definitely wanna bend one now. My list of gear I want to circuit-bend is getting bigger. Circuit-bent drum machines are always fun with an MPC or on their own. :)



nice mod,that teddy bear looked hooked on it too. :lol:

...well, bear....you want it all and you got no idea...

really don't wanna get into computers...?

to seriously finish whatever you gonna do with your mpc, we all end up on a digital audio workstation such as logic or live or whatsoever....

but if a computer is a no go for you, you'd better look for a hardware multi tracker, first of all....

so or so...best advice here was....a mixer....and some hardware guitar effects are always a good thing....

a hardware tracker is a mixer, usually with built in effects, and a recorder....
and the control source for headphones and speakers....you can have the best effect units....you won't hear them and you can't use them with your mpc, if there is no mixer device where your mpc signal and your effect chains can meet and mingle....

a computer with an interface and a daw sofware can give you all of this in one rush.....

^^^Indeed. Get a multitracker instead. A ZOOM R8 or R24 would be excellent choices because they can organize and record your tracks and they contain over 100 effects internally. Timestretch is superior on the ZOOMs than an MPC.
