Problem is, as I’m learning the workflow better and better, I don’t feel like going back to the laptop, and I’m stuck with a device I also distrust and feel is not for the long run.

The most important bond you must have with gear is complete confidence in the feature set you use. New features or looks are irrelevant. That's why I keep a harum of samplers (MPC LIVE II, MachineDrum UW+, MPC2500/5000, SP-16, Volca Sample 2) because they all do something really well, but none of them do it all.

There are tons of things InMusic could do to make it better at those jobs, but it seems InMusic wants the MPC to be some kind of platform to sell service (AKA paid plugins, or whatever option they can sell on top of the initial product), which obviously shifts focus, energy, development time on some completely unrelated things that the MPC should be able to do... As the OS gets more complex it gets more unstable, it gets more bugs and now some functionalities depend on an internet connection to be activated? It doesn't look like InMusic have the proper customer service to handle all the potential problems be caused by all these validation processes.

If the forum had 'likes' this one would get 1000 from me alone.
