Hello!
Recently switched from electrons/maschine/push2 to Akai world... And I'm really impressed. Making music is soo easy and inspiring here.. I own a lot of hardware synths and modular so first I bought Akai Force to work
with it in a dawless setup (Ableton type). And it works great as a recorder, sampler and so.. BUT I also had anopportunity to buy MPC X monster in a very good price... what I did... So now I own both. After mangling playing sequencing and so... stuff I realized that MPCX is much more (for me) enjoyable with sequencing external gear and overall playing.. On the other way FORCE is better for arranging clips and songs (You know it:)) I added Tascam model12 to have more inputs ..very happy. SO....I'm thinking of a setup where MPC X is sequencer, sampler...all MPC stuff.. and FORCE is just a recorder and arranger (audio from MPC and synths). Is it heresy?:) Anyone has such a combo. Of course I tried it and works fine..but I'm new in MPC..hopefully learning fast... What are Your thoughts about it?
