Nothing wrong with that at all, you do whatever is comfortable for you.

Before anyone flames me, I've have recycle as well, I prefer SF8.

It can also go hand in hand with Vegas/Acid, even shows up in some of the Vegas/Acid menus when installed on the same pc.

I can't think of ANYTHING thats faster than the MPC when it comes to chopping samples. I'd challenge anyone to chop a sample on the computer faster than what I can do on the MPC. It's all about what technique you use.

Here's how I do it (and i think ALOT of people do it this way):

Get your record and skip to the part you want to sample. Hit record, let the turntable play and record the first part of the sample (for instance, the first beat). stop the recording, keep the sample and rewind the turntable. Cue up the next part of the sample (for instance, the second beat), start recording and let the record play. When you've done this for your entire sample, go through each sample and set the start points. It's super quick, and I don't think you can go that fast with ANY computer. I'll probably post up a video tommorrow if someone would be interested. Kev Brown uses the same technique in his vid, but he does it a bit slowly (no dis intended, love kev)

peace
