man, i bought the mpc to stay away from software as much as possible. If i had to trade my mpc it would be for a new mpc 2kxl. or 2500 (if someone wanted to trade that).

Otherwise i would get an asr 10. But i would most definitly stay with hardware sequencing.

yup.. the only reason i got a mpc is to get away form making music on the PC, so i guess i wouldnt trade it for anything unless i can benefit form it, and right now the mpc is my main tool so im not even thinking of switching.

I wouldn't trade it or sell it.I got the mpc 2000 because my computer messed up and was becoming a pain.I'm glad I bought the mpc 2000.

i have a 2000 but nothing could replace it at this point

i'd go a 1000 and pick up an emu rack (e4xt) 2nd hand. 1000 for drums and the emu for the great filters and synth like functions.

That's why I love this forum! Never even knew about the RS7000. Did a little research and it has some nice specs. Regulary priced at $1500. There's one on ebay now going for $200.

I might trade it for a 4K.  I like the features and multi-sampling but not the monstrous size.  I might even trade it for a 2500 if all the bugs are worked out.  That's about it. 

for equal or less value I'd trade it for the mpc 3000 probably. i'd take the 4000 too if u ask me tho

nah jk, I'd never shoot my pretty face.
hmm, akai: s612 and a VX600 or a MPC 3000

other.. Machinedrum with the sampling upgrade/option maybe?

A 3000 is not of equal or lesser value imo

Maybe a brand new 2000XL, although when you finally wear down the pads, an old MPC just feels better!

I'd trade my dignity for an Original CD of Fruity Loops Studio 4, but I'd never trade my MPC 2000XL.

maybe a circuit bent tr707 (with the pitch knobs and the 727 ROM loaded)

moogerfooger analog delay (cept its a little more expensive than my 2kxl)

or a second 1210m5g maybe but probably not for either since i bought my 2kxl so i could get a more muddy sounding drum if i need it.

only thing Id trade my 2kxl for is a sp 1200. Or a mpc3000. No way am I getting rid of it for anything less than one of those.
