Hello,

MPC user for a few weeks now. Last weekend, I autosampled eight or 9 nice instruments from VSTs.

Before I keep doing this, how does the sound quality compare between AutoSampled content, and content I'd buy as an MPC Expansion Pack?

Sure, the answer will depend on the quality of the VST or another instrument being Autosampled. But in general, which have you found better? How have you folks decided when to Autosample? Or just get the Expansion Pack?

Thanks,
Joe

So I checked out the free Orchestral Expansion Pack.

And, yes, it sounded good.

The violin sounded better than my autosampled Violin form the IRCAM Soundpack from UVI. But I didn't EQ that autosample, and it sounds too scratchy.

I guess I want great sounds with little or no fuss. And it's better if it all resides on the MPC.
