I like the hardware.. It seperates your tasks... I use mpc for making beats chopping samples and computer for mixing/recording tracking.....
Sometimes i use a combination .. So i use the mpc just as a sampler and live track it into daw.. for me it's the fastest way (eliminating the stemming process as your doing it as you go) but sometimes the computer isn't around so i just use the mpc...

I think alot of issues that users have or put on machines is that "i dont like it how it doesn't work like the mpc/ setup im use to" If you take the time to learn the 5000, it's rewarding... I love jjos and maschine, but haven't really made anything on them for about 5 months (maschine longer) Becuase i'm just using the 5000 ..

I'm considering that qu 16 from allen heath... has a built in multitrack recorder ....
Would be a nice addition since i can use it without computer in the studio and live... Very very nice...

Oh and yeah no jjos for 5k...
