Re: [elektron] OT: External Sequencers

The mpc60/3000 has a great sequencer. The mpc1000 is cut down, but has great storage features. However, IMO none of them can touch XMIX on the command stations for LIVE improv.

  These are all interesting analog sequencers.  But they are quite
  limited and not that easy to use.  Besides who needs analog with midi?

  I would recommend any of the MPCs from Akai.  I think the MPCs have
  the best hardware sequencers out there.  Take note there is a cheaper
  mpc1000 that has barely been out.  I think their orders are full until
  next year.  You could find a used mpc2000 or xl.  Definitely better
  than the command station.

  You get two ins and outs.  A full sequencer with any time signature
  you want.  Connected to a MD however, I think you want to make the MD
  the master clock.  The mpc will sync up just fine.  They are samplers
  too.  The 1000 comes with effects and separate audio outs.  You can
  record midi events live.  Edit events.  Kind fo a small screen however.  

  I'm really thinking of getting rid of my Virus and getting an mpc1000
  with money for other things...

  The www.mpc-tutor.com forum can give you some answers.
