The sequencer is just right. It is the conductor of your config 'MIDI and samples utiliss by bte.
It is a basic but perfectly complte machine.

UTILIZATION

Habitus for the pc it takes time to adapt.
For the habitus of the other MPCs requires an adjustment period, especially for the step edit mode (here vertical).

Otherwise the functions are accessible and super egonomie of this "little sister" in fact an original machine o each space is worth the Fast Fashion (it's over! We pause over his little cendar on the belly of the b you lol!)

The manual is clear enough. I regret only having slept in sch and English classes because with the arrival of the new OS would help me ca ...

SOUNDS

MPC = RAP, I know all polmique that this statement will generate ... But I am an author / composer HipHop and everyone said that the MPC c'tait magic ... Rflection doing is not because you have a BMW that can drive. The machine does not make the groove ... it contributes.

It's a good trs Bacan for beginners. But to go further it remains limited. His report is qualitprix parcontre unbeatable.

The sounds are clear, but it comes out of good quality. It spits out what he gives with all lightweight, lightweight cot agu.

For its effect is going to require the mourners, they are not ffice. May be that the reverb could mean the hidden mdicrit of sound, but otherwise it's not a.
To start in the composition has the fact that a pro has done less. But it is a good machine trs as sequencer and storage / exchange of deals.
Converters, are not by appointment, but the sound of 2006, flat and transparent. For the sampler is the feed: "REC", "STOP", "Save!" is simple, as it's spring.

To each to his config 'with.
Its small size makes it a desire to not speak ill. It remains an ergonomic and enjoyable profondment. Closer to the pace of the box MPC60. It sticks its era.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had a year and it made me realize that to have a "grain" of his professional (at least when the same Ho! Do not DCON!) It was not an end in it. She has the art of adapting to the needs of each pro or amateur.

It's not a workstation or the mpc 3000 o 4000 ds soulve these machines that we know that the sound is Heavy ...

No it is a good conductor, it has its advantage in addition to price, for my part I have an Akai S950 sampler to beat (a massive musical), an Ensoniq ASR 10 for brass, violins, samples of soul, beats short while (the best sampler of the world, I think ...) and a Roland JV1080 expander for the components. The mpc 1000 fits perfectly my config.
I try the MPC2000XL ... The squabble between machine m'interresse not, I think that today one must be practical, high quality mpc with 128 (24 minutes mono sampling, sampling stro 12min) + Hard Disk the Next-Generation Functional finds its place among the elders who dchirent but with less memory and / or opportunities.

Beginners and pro now you know my opinion, be aware that the report qualitprix is ​​unbeatable.

For beginners who DLIR discovering the producers of the "Grain" of a sound, it's handjob brain ... Just do it!

Exprience with this choice I do it again without hsiter.
