    There good but you need to upgrade the Os v2.10 then you can say its tha best.

    Price paid

    $820

    UTILIZATION

    No everythin is good and its hella easy to use , no doubt you can learn it quick if you take some time everyday with it .

    the mpc is built tough , like they said ford built tough lol

    SOUNDS

    Sound is perfect nothin bad , hella clear in my case

    OVERALL OPINION

    Wouldnt trade it even if i had a chance to get a mpc 4000 its hella easy to use and its good for starter producers and professional producers , thats why they call it akai professional.

    The features that come with the new os are CRAZY,you got almost everything you could want,stretch,patched phrase,sample chop,pitch shifting. It is missing auto chromactic assign,thats my only gripe.I hope they put the chop shop (auto chop 0 feature they have on the 2500 in a future update..

    Price paid

    $800

    UTILIZATION

    VERY easy coming from an mpc background.

    Quality is my other gripe,I keep hearing about pads going back,and if you compact flash drive breaks is on back order from akai and will take forever to get.

    SOUNDS

    The sound quality is cool,I don`t notice a difference between my old xl and the 1000
