Value For Money :
Poor
For all characteristics I refer you to the site AKAI
The general configuration is simple.
The usual functions are easily accessible, some keys have a dual function (indicated in red on the mpc) to access it you have to press shift at the same time to the desired function
The manual is poor and empty ... But the net is full of good tutorial and once the logic of the beast's lies are more composed.
the samples delivered with the REN is effective, there are all kinds. Are they realistic? I would say yes but it would still be sad not to use the sound library provided with ... REN is a sampler and it must sound neutral after the treatments are applied to samples that provide heat or otherwise will give her cold.
Effects included in the MPC are effective and sufficient. Icing on the cake can even use our usual vst Congratulations on this full Akai.
Reaction velocity with aftertouch etc. Nothing to say ... This is an MPC!
I use it for one month and a half. The feature I like the most: the perfect integration into my DAW (cubase). The one I like least: not able to use the beast without a PC.
I tried the mpc 500 portable machine on his side I liked. the Ren is a solid machine, well built and has the attention of Akai (updates software and drivers many tutorial ...) its price is high but justified, with the experience I would do this choice probably . I recommend the REN once tasted you can not go without, gain speed work and feeling mpc ...
