Wordz of wisdom it would be a step down when if you wait til dec you will be one happy puppy indeed. The Z8 is way more advanced than the 2500 and the processer is faster too.
But if you can`t wait and the 4k is too complicate just remember I told you so.

ive got a 4k. and i want a 2500. I guess your right it would be sort of a step down. Dont get me wrong i luv my 4k, but there are definately things i dont use, and alot of things I do. THe true test will be to actually try it out, and compare it. I think Ill have a good idea right away and I might realize that its not a good choice.
But when i sold my 2xl for my 4k........its not that i didnt like my 2xl, It just lacked a few updated features. Like media disk, more filters, more memory, more midi outs, some sample editing features, like resampling, and normalize......and of course more outputs standard is nice.....thats pretty much it for me! The only thing i could see myself really missing on the 4k that the 2500 is the instrument pgming.
I guess its not neccessary for us 4k users to be looking at it. But Depending on its price, it might be a comprimise that I could do, and maybe make some money doing it........or at least getting something else too. I could be wrong, well have to wait on exact street price, and street price for used mpc4k.
