I know this is the MPC forums. Man, why are there always haters?? I wanted to start a thread dedicated to the microkorg +MPC combo. Like I said before.... Too may threads with mk questions, why not amalgamate them into one? Oh. and Thanks for your responses to everyone who was into it.

I was getting tired of the mk's sound and was using it as a midi controller for my s900/DAW when I found the soundeditor program. I started using it to bring some life back into a piece of equipment that was starting to feel corny and boring to me. I think the microkorg is dope, but as I mentioned, the sounds all start to sound similar after playing with it for any length of time.

i never used the sound editor but the mk is dope. the bass is nasty. i want it for that alone. tru the sounds get old. thats why i got rid of mine.

for the non multi timbre prob the piggyback cable is what everyone should get (i cant tell u how many times ive posted this under microkorg threads). it'll be easier to sample with. the microkorg is dope. u just have to really dig into it and make it work for u.

Don't use presets. Use your own synthesized creations. You can create new patches without the software editor.

I had three of them and they all had a horrible issue with the tempo constantly fluctuating and making everything sound like shit -- it was all a garbled aliasing mess

tempo for what? arp, delay time, midi-sequence?
