I mainly use it for ableton live 8's drum racks. Its a great controller. It's much more responsive when you use a direct midi connection versus usb connection. Now with the new black pads i installed, i have to break them in all over again. I have had my mpd24 since the first week it came out. No problems yet.

This is my old lab that I had in NY in about '03 (I'm laughing @ the little 13 LCD but it was about $300 back in the day) .

I went through some tough sh!t and sold all that equipment through the years but I'm proud to say I'm almost back up to par .

Here's my new sh!t, just got the monitors yesterday :D .

I've been through a couple S950's . I get bored of 'em . I'll probably end up w/ another one soon but my 202 is doing me justice right now .

yea, you probably will.....the 202 is a sleeper like an FC3S RX-7.....the way it glitches sounds up gives it its own distinct sound.

i think i might cop an s950 after i cop a vintage cassette deck first.

4 desktops could be for anything. It's not uncommon. 1 for video 1 for audio 1 for graphics and 1 for 3d rendering just off the top of my head. Right now my studio space has 4; 2 for audio and video and 2 for internet bullshit.
