Mpc 1000 open question

Hey what's up! I'm Kyle been using samplers for year just got the 1000 after using 500 for a year. Does anyone else use their mpc to seq and send CCs to their gear? Man Mpc is the best real time Midi SEQENCER and just controller for multiple synths drum machines etc effects. It's just the layout is so to the point. The only other seqencers I use are Yamaha Qx7 and Key step. I've just always noticed PPL love mpc to just create their whole song but am just curious to see how other use their MPCS not just for sampling.
Thanks for your time!!!
