Which MPC Do I want for live use? Samples, click track, midi

Hi, I'm trying to decide on which MPC I need. I think the 1000 is the key but I wanted to explain my needs.

From the MPC I want to run samples stereo out to the house sound.

I also want to run a silent click track to a drummer. Can the assignable mix out be separate from the stereo out so that it can't be heard through the house?

Lastly I want to run midi to an external hard synth. I'm running to an ms20 with a midi box. Can I only control one midi synth at once?

I guess most importantly I just want to make sure that I can do all three of these at once and not have to rely on a computer. Thank YOU for your time.

I think you want the MPC 5000, you sound like you want a MPC 5000, so why you're still here? Go cop the MPC 5000.

Thanks! Why do you recommend that over the 1000?

it has two MIDI outputs, with 16 channels on each, so can transmit midi data on 32 separate channels, which could control 32 separate synths if you wired them up right

Because the 5000 does all that and has its own synth, you can just midi it up with a midi controller.

the guy's got an MS20, however good the MPC5000 synth may be, I doubt it will be a suitable replacement
