MPC Touch vs Maschine MK2 vs Ableton Push 2

Hi,

My name is Tomas, and im from Argentina. It has been like 3 years since i was considering to get into hip-hop production, and now that im decided (and started a basic DJ course in order to start learning the basics), i would like to know which product is the best for me and will better suit my needs for the use i will give it (mainly hip-hop).

It will be much appreciated if you guys could point me in the right direction and showing me the pros and cons, cool and useful features of one vs the other one and wich one would you choose today and why.
The more objective, the better.

Thank you very much!

Not sure how many people around here own (or have owned) all three of these units, so I'm not sure you're going to get a first hand comparison. I think your first step should be to check out some individual reviews of each machine and you'll probably get a better idea which one is more suited to you. Here's my MPC Touch review.

Thanks Lampdog!.

MPC-Tutor, i have already read your detailed review of the MPC Touch and also have seen it in action on YouTube.
It seems like the MPC Touch is my first option, because of the amazing capabilities and liberty that gives you the Touch screen, a lot of people is saying that this expanded tremendously their workflow, speed, and ease of use.
But, what it's holding me is the Software. You read all over internet that Akai's Software is garbage in comparison to Native Instruments or Ableton. I want to know how much truth is in this words and what people are saying about it.
Obviously, I think it's very unlikely to find some guy that has the 3 of them and it's willing to give his opinion.

But a comparison between the MPC Touch vs Maschine MK2 and MPC Touch vs Ableton Push 2 I think it will suffice.

It would be soooo much better having only 2 options haha.

Thanks guys!.
