It's a testament to the 2500 that it's been used by so many great producers and beat makers even though it's not given the iconic status of other vintage MPCs.
@hazeentertainmenthiphop I don't care that a majority of people don't use these MPC's. That is no concern of mine, this is what works for me, and they are great pieces of gear regardless of your opinion. And believe it or not, some people do prefer to use hardware and samples instead of DAW's and VSTS. If it doesn't work for you then that's perfectly fine, but you do not speak for all producers sir.
The 1000 is by far my personal favorite, and ive had most of them along the years. Ive never owned a computer or software so i dont know how that compares
I find it a bid odd that you would of never been able to make beats in 6 years if it wasn't for a MPC 1000 or 2500, explain why that is? Did you not have access to a computer and a DAW?

Great question! What i meant was, this was the case for me personally. I always had trouble using software to learn to produce. I had been messing with Ableton, Cubase, FL Studio, Reason, Pro Tools, since i was 16 back in 2008. All of them were a pain in the ass for me and i barely got anywhere with them. And i was never the biggest fan of VST's, i always preferred samples so that made it even harder for me. It wasn't until i started using hardware that i actually made progress because i could physically play the elements of the beat on the pads like an instrument and record everything in the MPC itself, no click commands and software automation with too many drop down menus and options that just cluttered my workflow and confused me. But for others, all they know is software and they make great beats, so to each their own. But i will do a more detailed video on this topic soon and I'll explain everything more thoroughly there, particularly why i find the MPC 1000 and 2500 to be the best MPC's, for my workflow at least.

Large Professor is a beast on the 1000, Count Bass D too
Yep, completely forgot about large P! Didn't know Count Bass D used one too, thanks!!

@hazeentertainmenthiphop Maybe the kids, with their mp3 or youtube sampling source.
They ignores the classics mpc, whatever I love the mpc 1000 with jjos 2xl
Carrying an MPC4000 on your lap is just wild!
Bro, I use a MPC1000 and a MPC key 61
