I'm wanting to get and MPC 1000. Like all the features. But I'm wanting to do more than drum track and samples on the road. I'm wanting to be able to produce complete beats with drum tracks and samples but also tracks from a keyboard. What setup would you experts recommend to create a complete beat with an MPC 1000 a Keyboard and a pair of headphones?

take your pick. any decent workstation would suffice, but its all up to your preference. what kind of sound are you looking for?

I'm wanting to have drum tracks and samples from an mpc1000 then add bass, strings, piano etc. from a keyboard. i'm wanting to use a mpc1000 and a microkorg xl. i've heard tracks 57 and up are audio tracks and that you can directly record into those tracks, is that true?

Connect the 1k with the microkorg thru midi, and stick with this setup.
