i know people didnt regard it very highly (is that correct english? :p) but this seems like a cool tool... good choice of features, and if they execute them in a quality way: good product, i think...
its UGLY tho :p

2 headphone outs :o
wait, are you saying it doesn't have 8 outs? I thought this was 2010
I do give them credit for the rechargable battery, but what do if it runs out? the 500 you just put new batteries in


lol @ low signal to noise ratio :lol:

And what if your soundcard only has 2 outputs?

A better example, you want to send your kick to a hardware compressor, your snare to a hardware reverb, your hats to a software verb etc... directly from your box, you need those outputs.

On the MPC you simply do it. On this unit it would be a bit more of a hassle. I'm only pointing this out because if you want to contend with the MPC, you have to match it first. There's nothing on this product that really makes it stand out in my opinion.

How about the important stuff such as sequencing options? JJ OS for the MPC1000 offers numerous styles of recording sequences but the Beat Kangz software that I trialled (admittedly the first version) was limited in this area. Multiple sequencing modes and flexible sound design tools are essential.
