Ooooooooo @ the Maschine

exit, no romance wrote:...nevermind.

The longest Maschine thread ever was recently ousted from these forums, and it starts again? The OP probably wasn't aware of this and didn't intend to start the drudgery over again though, so. Here's the short version...

"Maschine sucks, is a marketing ploy and is a controller with fast software that is inept" and "A MPC is an old slow archaic controller, makes toast and has software that is inept". The Maschine and MPC are so different in their similar differences that they deserve a new thread every month discussing such. You have to choose a side in the drum machine Armageddon to make it to Boom Bap or Unk Unk heaven. Emptysea does not work for NI, and Aksia does not work for Akai. Jesus is a fish. Edward Norton and Brad Pitt are actually the same person. The chick he's banging in Old Boy is his daughter. Energy drinks makes you kiss dudes. Having to say "No homo" actually means you're homo, at least to non homos. Everything you read on the internet is true, because opinions equal fact on the internet. Hamburgers contain no swine nor crayons. Gold letters mean the end is near. No credit, low credit, bad credit...viewing the Beautiful Women thread will instantly improve your machismo which will trickle into other successes. The search function is where Yoda lives. People who text on phones in the middle of a conversation deserve to be crushed by a pride of obese people. The blood in film is never the correct color. Maschine is the German word for MPC. Text means nothing without smilies.

Got it?
Kidding. End sarcasm.

It was actually more civil than 90% of the debates around here. The entire MPC 5000 forum is terrible and not much has been done at all to clean it up. We have the JJ Forum where no negative talk about the OS is permitted. Than there is the MPC 5000 forum where negative talk is the rule.....

It's different strokes for different folks. The maschine wasn't what I expected it to be. I've recently been considering picking up a Midi cable and seeing if I would like ableton. I don't have the money for that though, I just bought some new headphones and I'm about to get an expensive ATA case for my decks. In my personal experience the maschine didn't provide me with significant enough features to change over from the mpc. Old habits die hard.
