MPC4000 sound quality for MOTM?

2004-02-07 by Robert van der Kamp

I asked before on AH, but didn't get a concrete answer:

I'm thinking of getting an MPC4000, for midi sequencing of 
course, but mainly to be able to make samples of my MOTM 
synth and use these to build a song.  (I hate computers for 
that kind of creative stuff.)

I know the 4k has a bad reputation, but that's not what I'm 
asking about here (working on that). What I'd like to know 
is if the sound quality of the 4k at 24bit/96k is good 
enough to capture the beautiful analog quality of my synth. 

I assume that 96k will be good enough to deal with most of 
the aliasing problems, but is the AD/DA good enough? 
Transparent? No colouring? That kind of stuff.

Did anybody ever hear the machine? 

Thanks,
Robert
