Two amazing bits of kit. Jack said he's staring to feel old now, tech is advancing so quickly...
- An MPC for $3k tho? You make beats with it and stitch together tracks with sequencing, so many early MPC options that are infinitely cheaperprophetone
- I also look at that price and think I could get my hands on the og goat 3000 or an SP1200 box, S2400 etcprophetone
- I mean, I get this is like the Rolls-Royce of drum machines but only because it’s like a laptop wrapped in a midi controller basically with a bunch of softwareprophetone
- for me it’s like where’s the soul of it, the grit, converters and lower bit rates adding crunch and magic, it’s just way too clean and tidy, some will love itprophetone
- The Rane is def sick tooprophetone
- The Rane is sickprophetone
- glitching comments whoopsprophetone
- The other thing too, that truly defines a classic drum machine, all of the early MPC’s, and the E-mu’s, Yamaha’s, Boss’s, Rolands...prophetone
- You can put them in the closet for five or 10 years, or even 20 years, and when you pull it out to use it, it’s still 100% ready to goprophetone
- Any of these newer standalone units nowadays are so reliant on $$ software updates and connectivity to Internet, How happy is this unit gonna be in 15 years?prophetone
- I compare it to what I see with modern cars, especially Teslas, like if the Internet goes down or battery’s dead you can’t even unlock the car or drive it etcprophetone
- Imagine pulling out this MPCXL in a year or two of being in closet, being hit with you can’t make a beat right now until you update os, renew subscriptionprophetone
- Anyway...prophetone
