New MPC Live to launch in May 2020?

Seem like new users and old users are eating up the one.

Native Instruments is working on something big. Its about to be a machine war.

That alone is reason for me to never downgrade to that, from the Live

It's like going from an MPC 1000 to the old MPC 500

It does have smaller pads, but it's not that big of a deal really. They're perfectly usable. But if you've already got a Live, you already have a far better MPC than the One anyway, so i wouldn't get one as an "upgrade" for sure. The One isn't meant as a Live replacement - it's meant to be an entry-level MPC for new users that haven't got a (newer) MPC yet.

Unless they want to use the CV OUTS.

Both the MPC 1000 and 500 have smaller pads.

The only thingthe one advantages over the live for me, is that the one has more direct buttons in comparison to the live.

But i mean, who cares, really...

^I agree.

Idk how it could be a dramatically faster workflow, as some say, with more buttons (one & x). I'm sure it becomes more convenient doing a few things, but I can fly around the live pretty fast (only took 2 years )

I hope its only a *few more buttons on the mk2!
