MPC v Laptop

so, im thinking about buying an MPC, but i'm kind of unsure of which to buy, or if i even need one (if these questions have already been answered, just post the link, search wasnt working out for me or maybe im just retarded). I have a laptop with Reason 3.0 and some other software. So far, redrum has been ok. But i feel like i should have an MPC if im going to be getting into making hip-hop beats. And if i do need one, i'm not sure if i should get the 1000 or pay another 600 bucks and get 2000xl. I dunno. Your input is really appreciated.

Akai marketing snags another one

congrats guys!!!!!!

that what i suspected. Are midi pad controllers fine?

i would recommend an mpc. mainly because im in love with mine. i dont know much about other hardware sequencers...

realisticly. a laptop would be a better idea.

no question, get a lappy and mpd16 or trigger finger and you will never look back.

i''m selling my mpc, and moving to an all software setup.
