Published on 02/24/14 at 07:53I bounce on the advice of atomik45 which seems to be the most objective opinion about this MPC Renaissance.
For my part, I also have a MPC 5000 and have long hesitated to sell in favor of rebirth.
Having been able to have a loan from a friend for 2 weeks, I was able to get an idea of the craft.
On paper, it is really tempting, certainly the most comfortable to use compared to all these small and big sisters MPC:
- Edition computer, nothing to do with the LCD screen.
- Pads that illuminate to have benchmarks for live.
- MPC software software is very close to the MPC editor, so we are not disoriented.
In fact, it's all well and good, but like the other MPCs can be controlled by noon and midi control via many software (reason 7, live, cubase, logic, etc ... etc ...) no major changes except for a pads that light.
Ha if there is still a significant change the MPC does not work if it was not connected to a computer is not well understood logic akai for once, so it is a kind of MPD (controller pm) which has a sound card and built-in preamp ....
Noise level, it is like all the MPCS, everything depends on the samples we upload it.
Nevertheless, the MPC60 module provides a really interesting grain.
I think for now this MPC is not yet developed, the software is still perfectible and is sometimes inconsistent with vst pluging some apps.
If you've never had this type of device in the hands, the MPC has at least the merit of having a simple app, so grip fast enough.
If you are looking for against an MPC that can stand alone even if you do not care the next bling / bling pads that light up / if you want to use for live / if you bought reason or ableton live 7 ( great external midi controller) I advise you rather older MPC to be equally effective (note nevertheless fault, because more and more difficult to find on some parts)
