@@woodyforrest313 ASR 10 swing? That sequencer is horrible. The 60 and the 3k are about the same. The difference is the accent (or the push on the 2 and 4). That’s what separates ever other swing. The PPQ can be the same but the accent (emphasis) is different on the MPC. Nobody gets that.

I miss when prices for these units were cheap on ebay back in the day (mpc 3000 for $900-1200, mpc 60 for $500-700). Wish I could replace the mpc 60 I used to have but prices are ridiculous now, at least the mpc 1000 is relatively the same price (even with jjos).

Studios had MPC60II back in the days. Pro drummers and beat makers had the 3000. The drummers who used the 3000 then still use it now. Trying to get any of them to part with theirs is like it's easier to pull teeth from a crocodile while it's awake. It's just not happening. I'm glad I got one in the end, no thanks to them. Not parting with mine either and I don't really need the 60II so much now although the sound and swing of the 60II and the 3000 is noticeably different.

So much backstory on the invention of these machines. Hip Hop was the redhead step child of the music industry. “Everybody” did not love hip hop! It was frowned upon by 80% of the established music industry. So the devices used to make hip hop were frowned upon also. A pop band could use an MPC and nobody cared. Rappers? Oh no those machines are trash. They became associated with ghetto blackness. Especially by rock purest. Also… The only producers that were looking for that “dirty sound” were hip hop producers. So even after the MPs were selling, that SP stayed hot. The 950 put a stop to all that.

Part of the reason the SP-1200 was able to outcompete the MPC60 was that the MPC was actually More hi-fi, at a moment in music when rap fans wanted to hear samples that "sounded like samples" - which was exactly what SP samples sounded like. Just as rap fans at first were taken with music that consisted solely of drum machine beats and sparse scratching - as a stark contrast to the over-lush production of mid-80s Top 40 and other genres, hip-hop listeners became equally fascinated by sampling when the technology became widely available to producers, and how those samples had their own, weird sound. Only when the SP-1200 sound had sunk in and become commonplace - around 1988 or '89 - was there an opening for the MPC's higher-fidelity sound (and some would say punchier sound, but definitely with more bottom end than the SP) to take over and become the weapon of choice for producers.

I love akai, I love akai’s pads but what I don’t love is that calculator type screen. That’s what I don’t get. The justification to buy one just to learn an antiquated and obsolete operating system that you control with a wheel and a few buttons. Not to mention the screen is 5-7 inches at best. My opinion is if you buy an akai mpd and link it to a solid DAW like Logic Pro you can easily achieve the same task of a 3000 at a cheaper cost and better learning curve. The Drum Machine Designer inside of Logic Pro is literally all the same features. Google it yourself.

From you said "The Drum Machine Designer inside of Logic Pro is literally all the same features," you just gave away fully that you have never used a 3000 before or you would know what the differences are, and why people who can, gravitate towards it. Anyway if the software floats your boat then there is nothing wrong with that. IMO and experience is best to have both.

@@RalphLBaerits workflow, workflow, workflow. not just capability. I work as a product designer and a big lesson you learn is limitations are often what makes a product great (like how phones don't have mice but you can still do certain things better on those devices, because the whole thing is designed around it) As the other person said, if youve ever actually used a hardware drum machine you'd know what we're talking about. It's hyper focused on doing a few things very well and the buttons/knobs are second nature. DAWs doing absolutely everything is one of the downsides, in addition to having tweets and texts coming through to distract you. Most people use MPC for the creative process, creating the initial loop or structure, then finishing it in a DAW. Or you can start your samples or sounds on your computer, import it to the machine bump out a beat, then finish arrangements, master, and or mix it in a DAW. At the end of the day it's about making music and getting into a creative flow state. Artificial limitations + mastery of your tools help put you in those flows. DAWs offer so much it'd take 5x longer to get the set up right and then you'll be tweaking VSTs, updating shit, distracted by email etc for hours while a drummachine dude will have made a beat already.
