Yes but i guess that one day or another, if you want to finalize your song and get it mixed and mastered you need to
exteriorize the tracks. And usualy, it's at that stage that you eq and mix volumes....
I understand the point of passing your sounds into a pre-amp, eq them and sample them back in the MPC but take into account
that when all your song is finished you might have to go out again of your MPC if you need to mix your beat with vocals and want to fine edit specific parts and add reverbs and other effects, plug-ins and shit... Therefore by going out a second time of your MPC you kind of add noise and sound might deteriorate from to much transfers.....then again that was more an issue back in the "analogue" tape recording days when you had less headroom...
I think now with the 24 bits it will take more than 2 transfers generation to downgrade the quality of sounds....but i'm still careful about it.
At the same time, it would be the best of both worlds to be able to use the 4000 as the beat making, recording, editing and mixing tool.
So at the end all that's in the MPC goes directly to mastering. No mixer board or DAW.
Straight out MPC 4000 to DAT or CD and to the mastering plant.....by the way do you guys think it's possible to do that?
I mean yes it's kind of possible but would it be a good idea? And would it give a good result?
You use the MPC as your beat making machine, recording and mixing.
Would that be even better with 2 MPC's 4000. One for making the music and the other to record, edit and mix?
Today there is so much possibilities, it's kind of confusing what's the best electronic path to chose.
