That is like choosing a car based on which one has the best after market roof rack.... who **** cares.. get a separate filter and **** off... the filter is so low priority that they didn't even think of putting one in the first model.
The filters in the 4K are in a different league to the average MPC filter(s), because it's a proper rack sampler squeezed into an MPC shaped box. They become integral to certain types of program, especially when you start controlling different elements with the mod matrix. You also get a lot more flexibility than a standalone filter because you can stack up multiple programs with a shit load of detailed filter work all going off at once, with some things locked to tempo and other things drifting in and out of time. That's before you even automate anything.
