Hi,

could anyone tell me why I should buy an MPC 1000 instead of a software sampler? I've been using Battery and Fruity Loops for drum programming and I think it works prettty well.

Thanks

If they work pretty well for you then why bother?!

it kinda seems like if you needed an mpc (of any variety), you'd know it 8)

we aint salesmen here boss. akai has a webpage for this sort of thing. not that you're wrong for asking..

Because Tapping out PHAT BEATS is MADD FUN on a MPC.

Then throw it back in FL and finish it off.

Or

Flipp it back and Reverse it. From FL to MPC and finish it.

tap tap, then point click

or

Point click, then, tap tap

That is way MPC 1k was made for people who rock the CPU.

CPU and the 1k works LOVELY together.

WAVE FILE FORMAT.

NO CONVERTORS NEEDED.
Or Resampling to .wav

P. S Spit Battery files and MPC 1k files at each other! NICE SON
