I would recomend against getting recycle.
I got it a year ago, spent mad hours chopping things, but the transference back and forth to the computer was a headache. You can do cool stuff with it, but if you have any experience chopping by hand, you end up using recycle as just a large version of the mpcs zone edit screen (at least I did). So either way you are back to slicing by hand (except now you be out 150 bucks and have a headache + the money you spent on getting a zip for your mpc). Second, due to file format issues, you cant give your samples meaningful names in recycle longer than six (?) digits. Like, say you have a smaple in recycle like Drumloop5 011 (for drum loop 5, sample number 11). When you load it up in the mpc it comes out "DU890-->3" or somehting like it. There are work arounds, but why bother.
Recycle is great, if you use reason or another software sequencer, as you can load those files straight into it. But for the MPC, it is, in my opinion, more of a hassle than its worth.
So I say chop on the MPC screen. It aint that hard. If you want the midi file thing, you can just play the beat back and record along with it (this will help with your playing timing as well).

If you must get Recycle 2.0, however, I'll sell you my unregistered copy for $75 (box manual and registration card included). PM me.
as for aburpt ends... cut the sound from the end of the hit to the begining of the next hit. Then set the decay for 5 on the program screen to get rid of any clicks. If its still clicking, zoom in so you see exactly where the sample begins before you cut.
