although i use software...i will have to agree with afrique..i just seems like you are doing more when you twist knobs, lol..it makes you feel important. but to me, software just seems a whole lot more precise, you can zoom in/out, cut very small parts out ect. to me it just depends on what you like doing and how you work...i would say base your decision on that and not on, well my fav producer uses this so it must be good. they are all good, but not everything works for everybody. thats my 2 cents

yeah it sure does feel a little better, and you have guys who went to school for engineering and they will tell you "he converters are differrent, always go hardware, BLAH BLAH BLAH" but never mind those guys, because your budget speaks louder than something that minor...... and when you are makin some good $$$$ for what you do, then you can blow your money on the 3-times-as-expensive hardware just for the knobs and buttons as opposed to the point and click.
i am a hardware guy, i have been up until this summer and switching to pc was the best choice i have ever made..... and while i miss my ardware (there some things i still cant duplicate in cubase that i did in my mpc)

spot on get a midi controller and you will have a hardware setup.
There are several differences between soft and hardware samplers, the thing is that the differences aren't really based on which is better as far as sound goes. The differences are based on what is better for the user.
1. I've noticed that most people find it easier to sample using hardware.
2. In general, software is cheaper and you get more for your money.
3. Hardware adds quantity to your total set-up.
4. Software is compact and easier to take with you if you need to be mobile.
5. Hardware can be re-sold faster and you never have to worry about things like worms or viruses.
6. Software is becoming more and more popular.
If you noticed, I didn't lean towards either soft or hardware. The benefits really narrow down to what the user prefers. It will always be a debate over which is better and there will never be a TRUE answer. Hardware is improving just as fast.
