Cool.
I'm asking 'cos I was gonna buy an RM1x to build a hardware-based setup. I do have a PC with plenty of software but I want to use that for editing audio only (I work with PCs all day long and just can't get along with using them for composing music as well, I need something tactile).
On it's own, is the mpc1000 a good tool for learning the basics of rhythm and loop programming? What other bit of kit could I add to make it more complete?
Cheers.
