should've copped a used MPC, rolands are straight but MPC's are better
hardware is always better cause its a more of a hands on experience, but you won't notice much of a difference between software and hardware unless you didn't know how to use the software you were fucking with, cause a sampler works basically the same software or hardware, its all in how you can chop and find samples
word of advice though just cause it comes with cakewalk don't mean it won't work with other programs, cakewalk is ass, if you wanna use it with software just use the programs you already familar with
you probably gonna wanna export all the individual tracks to your comp. too, cause even though you can mix/master with it you doing it with limited tracks

Oh I know! haha Don't get me wrong...I know the MPC's are better. They had this MPC 2500 for sale for $2300. Thing was a monster! But that's way outta the A.M.E. budget at the moment. But the Roland will definately serve it's purpose. This is a new way of production for me...so gimme time to play with it an see what I can do. I just wanted another way and another option of fuckin around. Hey...there's no point in building a lab if ur not gonna add to it! Ya know!? But with everything that I have altogether...I have a pretty decent size and professional lab & studio...there's no denying that.
This bad boy is definately cleannnnnn! haha

ha the good old 606, good machine I have an 808 its alright but yea the mpc is way doper then both for sure fuckin love my mpc. If you searched on ebay you could have gotten a new mpc-1000 for the same price which is just as good as the 2500 if you get the jj os. (just less nobs on the 1000 but does everything that the 2500 does) Either way I've seen people make some dope ass shit with teh 606 have fun man.
