Using the input for sampling will never get the same quality as importing
waves.
My advise, use a PC and Audio software to record/edit the samples for best
results.
The engine supports up to 44.1 KHZ so it should be good enough.
My short experience is that it sounded as I expected, a good solid clean
sound.
The tube overdrive can give the sound extra body and seems a good bed.

If you want loud and noisy you can go for the new E-tribes. (Tubes!)
If you want high quality, detailed sounds the Elektron gear can't be beaten
by the E-tribes.
The ease of use is comparible although the Elektron's are more powerfull.
My guess the price difference is as it should be, more money but more of
everything.
If you can afford it go for Elektron.
