do you learn things quick? do you have experience with making beats? if you're green and you dont know anything then it may take longer. but it didnt take me very long. of course the beats werent all that but after a few years i was straight

When i owned one(using an mpc2000 now) it didnt take me no time to really learn it. I already knew what i was doing cause i had owned the 2k first then went to the XL. But even when i had the 2k i didnt even need the manual it was like common sense to me. I guess it was easy for me cause i build/repair electronics/music gear.

Depends on the track, mood, ect. Its really hard to answer that but as far as getting started i can easily lay down something and experiment but it will usually be different each time.

Have it Loop or copy and paste it where u want it to be.
