hey trev

hows the 4000 treatin you is it good/bad ok maybe how long have you had it and was the learning curve hard can you give me a little info on your take with the 4000 and 1 more ? did you own or work with any other mpcs b4 you got that one holla back[/b]

Sorry for the late reply.....I have been down south for a few days getting faded with some friends and checkin out my homie's Triton... It has great sounds but the sequencer is a little crazy....

anyway, to answer your question, I bought a straight 2000 back in .... i think 98 or 99... and loved it. It was very easy to use and made a lot of beats with it... there was realy nothing to stress about because I had some friends up the block who had one already and he showed me all kinds of shit....on the 2000 (hands on traing)...I got myself in a jam and needed money so I sold it to another friend who went on to do amazing shit with the machine.....I regret that day but had to do it.....

so, I finaly got the 4000 in January and I am heavily impressed with the machine.... The 4000 is a monster in the fact that it can do a lot of shit.....
like most people will tell you, it is not for a beginer... and that is what I am a beginner somewhat... so i have had problems and still do understanding the parts, programs, multi's excetra and the fact that sounds need to be asigned to different areas before using them...... the 4000 gives you tuns of opitions as far as how to set up the sounds so that is extra time as well for settings....I am the type of person that can get impation with thinks and you deffinetly need to have patience with this unit.....

buttom line is, it is a computer, very advanced.....

I think that anyone looking to get the 4000 should already know the fundamentals of a regular computer before considering get one.... these are the things i need to learn more about.... but, nothing is over night... if you know some one with the 4000 and can sit down and watch them and get some hand on traing....... that would probaly help the most....

enough already, If you have the love for music and making music...and are a quick lerrner.... get the 4000..... give it some time.... work on it as much as possible and hit up this sight for any question and tips...
good luck
