You should probably do a little more research if your not sure of the differences. Theres a BIG difference between the 500 and 1000. Especially for someone new to a MPC. Spend the extra money and get the 1000 but make sure you understand what it is that a mpc does. If your new to music try programs like Reason and Fruity Loops and save the money.
