If you plan on using it to sample sounds from, then anything that makes a sound can be used. But like Tape says if you see one that has "MIDI" connections then you can also use it to control the MPC, or the MPC can be used to control it using MIDI data.

what has been said already

i recently bought an akai mpk25 which i would also suggest if your planning to use a DAW.

has most of the common functionality of an mpc and with a keyboard. this is what i would suggest for a beginner but if your already familiar with the mpc and theres some specific features that you want then just go with what was first suggested.
