Reviews and questions about the entry-level MPC500

Do any of the MPC machines have digital audio out (SPDIF or AES)? I recently bought a 500 and think that it would be nice to be able to move my songs and sequences into a session within my DAW without having to do a round trip from digital to analog and back to digital.

The 1k and 2500 have spdif as standard, and the 2000 and xl also have it but I think it may be part of the 8 output expansion board.

I can't speak for the other MPC's but I'm guessing the 4k also has it.

The 4k has the option of using coax & optical digital I/O. IB-4D (wordclock & spdif I/O) & IBADT (adat optical).
