Hi,

I know there's a lot of hobby/budding musicians out there...

This is a question going out to you guys.

I was wondering if you think 1,400,000won for a 2 months old MPC-2500 is a good price (considering Korean premiums)?

It has been upgraded to full ram capacity and comes with an 80gig HD installed.

Why not just buy a PC or a notebook? Get some music making equipment software and there you go.

I was looking for software solutions, but I haven't been able to find anything similar to the MPC's functions...

specifically the sampling/chopping/pad assignment...

any recommendations?

I know that a lot of my mates who are still making music use Macs and midi keyboards.

Not sure of the software they use - I can ask them
