Using MPC1000 without the computer?

I came across this video of Snareface.. He comes on at around 5:10.. And looks like he's using an MPC1000.

I was wondering.. would i be able to create my glitchy samples on the MPC? Or am I better off editing sounds on my computer, then bringing them to the MPC. For example, in the video, he has quick 32nd notes all over the place.. If I had a closed hi hat sample (just hitting once), and wanted to make it so that it when I hit a pad, it would do a roll as long as I hold it, would I need to edit it that way on the computer? Or would I be able to do this on the MPC 1000? If not, what do you recommend for this?

Basically, I want to create my drum tracks without using my computer. My drum tracks usully consist of 2 tracks. One basic beat with older drum machine sounds such as 909's and 808's. And another track of high pitched glich bleepy noises. (like in the video above) Would you recommend the MPC1000 for this?

If it helps the only drum machine I have experiance with is Reasons Redrum. I'm a drummer as well.

Thanks

if ur into the hole glitchpop scene and write that psuedo idm shit than i recommend getting u some toys and learn to circut bend not even that but any thing u wanna sample and create u can dump them into the mpc.. just about any sampler out will do u justise u just have to pick out the one u want..the mpc1000 simply **** ownz..forget who used them before there just puppets to showcase the product and they prolly dont use it or use maybe 4% of the mpc..but if ur into glitch and u wanna sample them sounds into sequence the mpc will do that and do it well..as for doing shit like the guys in that scene u can do that..thats just slapping ur dick on the pads with an mpc no effort

you won't want to use your computer for drums after you get used to the mpc drums. for glitchy noises try a short loop point

mpc + jj os midi grid edit is the best interface i've ever encountered for playing/recording/editing my midi information. there are no complaints about the small screen. after all, i'm working with 8 or less sequenced pads (many more if you count simulted pads) and i NEVER find my vision crowded if you set your program's note assignments right.

Ive looked into the circuit bending stuff and its seems fun and all, but I don't think it'd work for me. I don't really like the random approach of it. I know exactly what I want, but it's sort of that glitchy drum sound I'm after.

There's another example if you guys want to listen. The song is "Twenty Two Fourteen" The drums start coming in at 2:20, so you've gotta wait. They get more complex as it goes though. This would be more my style, not too over the top with the glitch sounds. But just as a more complex drum pattern.

You don't need to edit anything on your computer... you can create 32nd note loops on the MPC 1000 without much effort. I do all my sampling, editing, etc., on the MPC, and don't have any problems.

However, it might be easier to do on a computer, if that is what you are used to.
