hi there,
MPC60 is interesting me, but I'd need to hear more its legendary sound. I can't find example on the web. Maybe someone know where examples are put online, so I can really hear the sound of the machine.
You know, like original break beat, MPC60 sampled breakbeat etc...
Thanks a lot for reading me, and sorry for my poor english.

What does having a machine for years have anything to do with it? You obviously jsut don't listen to hip hop is more like it.

Who care to know if I listen to hip hop or no? Do I need to prove what I listen to for being interested buy an mpc? And secondly, who told me if this or that album is done with the mpc60 or an other **** sampler???? Does the MPC 60 the only sampler used on early hiphop??? I don't think so..
So even if I know less or more its sound, before buying a 400$ machine, sure, i just want to listen what it does to the sound exactly...

DJ Shadow-Endtroducing ONLY MPC 60II used......
Have you heard of the invention of youtube and google? There is plenty of shit out there about the 60 hip hop and not hip hop...
Michael Jackson had a 60...and even toured with one and a bunch of S-900's..although popular in hip hop the 60's been used on all sorts of stuff.
Actually if you remember the interview by Martin Bashir that totaly damaged his career when he was interviewing Jacson in his studio he had a 60...

I wouldn't worry about the sound...It's the best sounding MPC out there and trust 12309128309128 god knows milion users the sound is it..the thing I would more worry about is if you have patiance for it in todays modern world..Im gona guess you come from a software/pc background and your next question is does it have USB and how i transfer sample to it? lol

Yep, an 60 at 400$, get me one too please.

I just saw a 2000XL gone at 500€ so...

Just look at the new MPC, it s more flexible, and maybe more what you want.

If you want a heavy sound, just look at old machines.

I guess the op just want a high quality A/B comparison between original and MPC60. Youtube quality is too bad and to listen to hiphop tracks made with the 60 is improperly too cause its mixed and mastered.
