For what a user pays for an mpc-x i have got an mpc one, the umc 1820, a microkorg, a microfreak, a 303 clone, a set of monitors... what does the mpc x user gain for the same money spent? i mean in terms of audio development. whether you use an mpc x or mpc one doesnt really matter.. dudes are gonna produce the same quality shit on either one... may as well go for the one that costs less and snap up some other good studio purchases so you dont put all your eggs in one basket and end up making mpc music rather than studio music.
Yeah, I guess that's what makes us different... I already had all of my gear from a
long ass time ago, so buying the X was just me
updating from a 2KXL. My other gear: synths, interfaces, MIDI Controllers, monitors -- I had that shit from waaaay back when, so I wasn't buying everything for the first time, as you just mentioned. That's what I'm saying -- I feel like X users are different in that respect (I could be an outlier tho).
But I agree, people will use whatever they can afford and however serious they are about music, and that's all that matters in the end.
So... to bring this topic back on target -- any more leaks or news on the XL?
