While we're at it...why are there even drummers anymore?
Nov 15th 2015

Because some guys would rather play a drum set.

      No. Cold Truth. It was not a real question.

in a word: response...

Response + reliability are big reasons for anything hardware really.
Nov 15th 2015
21
because the MPC can connect to other hardware?
Nov 15th 2015

Not really. I can connect hardware just fine to Cubase.

      as nice as FM8 is, they still can't reproduce a lot of patches right

      the most obvious and influential is the Roland 303

The only cats still really using MPCs are hip hop beat makers who

"everyone" is pretty broad
Nov 15th 2015

it's accurate imo.
Nov 15th 2015

Yes, "everyone" is a generalization, but read my context.
Nov 15th 2015

Thing is, unless I'm mistaken, Logic is used far more than Ableton
Nov 16th 2015

      Yep, I'm talking about live performance.

dude that was stupid as hell, and extremely condescending
Nov 15th 2015

      No, it was actually knowledgeable and correct.

           read my postagin and get back with me
Nov 15th 2015

of course, but it still won't beat everything being in one place like an...

This is only really true if you're sample based only
Nov 15th 2015

      minus the external display, there have been boards like this
Nov 16th 2015

      Not really. Those are keyboard workstations, which are fine

Nov 16th 2015

Nov 15th 2015

      The point is that there COULD be though.
Nov 15th 2015
