Buy MPC at this time?

!!!I DON'T WANT TO START ANY FLAME!!!!

Hi,

I am wandering if it's not nonsense to buy an mpc 2500 now. Aren' t mpc's outdated? An mpc 2500 is my dream toy for last two years and now i have possibility to get it but i am not sure if mpc's are not "walking dead" at all in time of usb controllers and software samplers...
What are pros and contras to buy it or not to buy it?

Thanks

I picked the 2500 even though I have a 2000XL and Logic 8.
It's really all up to you and what you want to do with your music.

you need to do what works for you -

personally, its the best bit of kit i've bought in many years.

If ur not a software guy ur not a software guy, eventhough the mpc might be outdated compared to all the new stuff.

And it seems u already made up ur mind, so.....

i believe both of these have male and female parts.

buy an sp12+akai z4 I think the mpc 1000 is better...

Software is essential to the way I work and the 2500 is a pure luxury that I don't need but still love using. Just get it and don't look back...
