Reason has that feature plus a lot more. Theres nothing you can do on the MPC that you cant do on Reason. Except sequence external midi-gear. Other than that Reason is killin the MPC. I think even the Yamaha Rs7000 has more features than the MPC.
WORD? DAMN I DUNNO'
I REALLY LIKE THE MPC....... THE OTHERS MIGHT BE BETTER BUT I STILL FEEL THE MPC MORE............ I LIKE THE LOOK OF IT AND THE SIMPLICITY......... IM GONNA BUY ONE SOON
Do your thing man. If you like workin on it then get it. Get whatever you're most comfortable with. The MPC is cool, its easy to learn and it gets the job done.
