MPC 4000
The MPC 4000 is everything that people say it is for the most part. Research on forums and boards always makes comments on its sequencer, and the swing on it, which isn't really true. It's actually stiffer than the 2500, it took me some time to adjust to it, from first use. In fact it's completely different from every MPC I've ever used. I've used the 2500, 5000, 2000xl, and the 1000. I've never used the MPC 2000 or 60 or 3000 though. However once you adjust to the workflow, if you've ever had experience with them, then you'll be up and running with it in no time. The only problem I really have with it is the a/d converters. Which is probably the same reason why I was specifically asked today about what I thought of the MPC, right? The conversion of what I do on the MPC 4000 and what gets output when I convert it, endures a ridiculous loss of quality. I recently made a mixtape in which I haven't put it out because the quality of the sound went from like 24bit to 12 bit. Metaphorically speaking if what I originally made was with color, then it went from being oil pastels to like water colors in terms of quality. I don't know if it's just my mpc though. I'll figure out a way to make it bang regardless. I don't even know if i would recommend an mpc 4000 to people who aren't used to working with mpc's. I'd probably go with the 2500 or 5000 if I was being completely honest in terms of ease of use and workflow. Besides the sound quality issue (which might only be my mpc) I'd recommend it if you're a hardware guy. Maschines can do all an mpc 4k can do and more.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
