I think Philly, that you have the same disease I am just starting cure myself of: gear lust. You don't really need much gear to make decent tunes. There are many examples of eminent artists from various genres who have made dope beats, rhythms and mutations with very little in the way of gear. The equipment is important, but only as a means to end. And that end is the music. Use the gear, don't let it use you.

Repeater is the next step in the evolution of loop-based music production. To the studio musician, it gives a power to arrange audio that was normally reserved for MIDI. Live musicians can safely sample and integrate loops into their performance with almost no learning curve. Repeater's algorithms are tailored to making the looping process simple and intuitive.


I should be fairly easy to record Bass & guitar loops and sync them to midi
with this.
Bought a Repeater about 3 years ago. These things are absolutely unbeatable for putting together great guitar loops. Great for bass too. You can use them for synth leads and bass with good results. This thing is basically a musicians piece of gear. Anyone using a DAW for live performance has got to be joking.

Just a chop feature that you can save a zone directly to a new file.
you know what i mean?
thats all i want, and i think its possible on the mpc3000. or not?
that would make working on samples so much faster
