ill tell you this much.

try them out

whatever is told to u here shouldnt be the main reason for you to choose one over the other. get to the stores and read about these machines and what they have to offer, then consider prices

then go from there

but from what ive gathered the mpc pads are more comfortable (have never tried the pads on the mv's)

would also depend on which mpc model you want i guess

My personal opinion on the beat up guitar center MV is that the pads feel quite stiff and you had to hit them hard but maybe its 'cause they were beat to ****.

I own a mv8000 and I have tried mpc2000xl and mpc1000.

robthebank2morrow> or maybe the pad sensitivity was set to medium or hard! (there are 3 levels and I always use "soft" cause I don't want to break my pads)

I actually thought the mv pads were nice and soft.

To be fair... why would anyone bite on a question like that? In the end it's your decision and it doesn't affect anyone but you. Demo the boxes and make up your own mind.

Asking people to justify or defend their machine choice isn't cool or productive. .....and yes, that is exactly what your post does.

if you hear that the MV's pads are worse than the 1000's, run like your Afroman fleeing the KKK

Nothing is worse than the garbage installed on the 1000. th rooand pads are more than adequate. It's a matter of preference.

As far the attempted humor, I'd like to see you say that to black guys face. Now that would be funny!

I will say that Roland added a global setting for the pad sensitivity, and you can adjust the pads to lightly punching them or adjust them if you're heavy-handed!

As far as how they feel when you hit them...well that's up to each individual. I don't see too much of a difference that would be compared to "night & day"! :wink:

Just GP knowledge!
