damn...I miss my 60II. There is a certain feel/sound that misses out with the 4000.

Yo den, do you chop and slice in the 60? or in another program and then load them in the 60? Im debating a 60 vs 1000. do you use anything else for your music? like an external sound device? Thanks

BTW loving the music.

I sample each part I want individually into the 60 and then trim them. It can be time-consuming if I have a lot of chops, but I'm used to it. Plus I usually keep things pretty simple....
If you're gonna be doing some serious chopping and editing I would say get a newer mpc, but I personally would go for a 60/3000 over the 1000 any day.

I can always use the computer to chop if i need to. the only part i think is making it hard to decide is the fact that the 60 doesn't have any effects/ filters. you never know when you want to cut some highs to make a bass or cut some low to bring out the vocals, know what i mean? If there was a fast alternative i would have gotten the 60 already. So im looking into a mixer with a effects right now. hopefully i come out with a 60. Thanks for the reply.

What do you use to eq your samples? a dj mixer?
