I use an mpc2000xl as my main sequencer for live and studio, it drives my
synths via MIDI, and plays drum samples... so I know where you're coming
from with the sampled drumsounds side of things... 
 
however I also want to have a decent flexible drum machine to run
alongside the mpc.... just as I like to have dedicated synth sequencers
runing alongside.... (like the evolver, for instance!!)
 
something about having different interfaces available makes a big
difference...
