Hello my fellow Mpc users..I've had my MPC since Mid November but I've didn't have much time to get into it since i was moving across country.Now I'm settled back on the west coast and Have really been getting into it now.Everytime i sit down i learn alot about the machine and I'm starting to feel comfortable with it.At first i knew exactly what i wanted to do but i was lacking the things I wanted to do it all.As of now i have the MPC1k,an M-Audio Fast Track Pro Interface, Stanton t.60 turntable, electric guitar and keys and software and of course vinyl. I was just wondering if there is really anything else that i need to get started without having any restrictions.I have made songs before but on FL studio and all the computer programs but i just like the feeling of doing everything Hands on.Any recommendations of good gear or programs would be greatly appreciated.And im sorry if i sound like a noob..i did search the topic but this is the getting started are so i decided to post in here.

peace.

You wouldn't be restricted even with just your mpc, turntable and a bunch of vinyl records. Plus a software multitracker to be perfectly honest ; )
You have enough in my opinion, you can always get new equipment, but since you had your mpc since Nov last year, then get to know it first and then move to another level. But not necessarily by spending more money you know : )

What he said. h MPC has alot of functions. So take the time to maastrer as much as you can, and go from there..... I am in the same boat, I got mine at the end of Nov 07 and learn something new everyday. Yoiu seem to have the basics, so go from tere, and as your exp grows, so will your needs.....
