Get ready to send it back.....

The effects are cool for getting some ideas down onboard the MPC..and mixing within the unit. The alternative (I always have one of those) is to set-up effects the way you like, then resample with the effects (non-reversible procedure). You can now send your recorded samples w/effects to the individual outputs.

There are other things that the XL and even MPC 3000 can do that the MPC 2500 can't. Facts of life...........
