Word! Hydronexius should be part of it too.

Wonder if he's mods MPC's?

I’m working to finish up this next album release. I use a combination of samples, synths and live instrumentation. I can get anywhere from 0 - 60% of a song done in the MPC, but no way I could finish it there. Just not enough tools in that toolbox alone. Especially when laying down vocals. Vocal takes, summing takes, adjusting a note or syllable if needed. Not gonna happen in the MPC. Admittedly though, I’m a bit of a perfectionist. I’m down to the midi note or vocal syllable if I think it’s necessary for the song. MPC is more for broad strokes IMO. Not that granular type of editing.
I do love working in the MPC though. But I’ve never finished a complete song there. Always move to Logic Pro at some point.

Props for making the effects and the screen graphics very nice. I must say, much better than the MPC 2000XL.

I kinda wish I would have taken the time to look into it more.

But I was never the cabling guy in the studio - couldn’t take the clutter. That’s what the Reason cabling system reminded me of. I think it was a great approach for Reason though - great differentiator the way they approached it. Similar to the Logic Pro environment way back in the day (connecting things to things to things to things), but with a much nicer GUI. People I know that use Reason, swear it’s the best DAW ever, and that’s a good thing for Propellerhead.

So I originally started making music in 2011 on Propellerhead Reason 5 which was a pirated version, don't judge me. I didn't have it long, maybe a year before I was blocked from using it so I was away from music until I purchased my MPCLIVE in December 2018. I'm brand new to this, so excuse my ignorance, but my question is this..
Is it necessary for me to have Reason, Ableton, Logic or any other DAW if I've already constructed and mixed everything on my MPC? And if yes, what are the advantages of having an additional DAW? because in my opinion, the MPCLIVE/X are pretty much standalone DAWS in a box.
Man U R on point with That
If there are other posts related to what I'm referring to, please post the link so I can study up, thanks.
For me, as is, I need a DAW. Logic in my case. Reasons? Plugin delay compensation, VCA tracks, stereo panning & multi-output plugin support would be at the top of the list.
