4000 vs. 2500?!?

[In-Dent]

Hey, I'm trying to decide which MPC I should get. It's between the 2500 and 4000. I am a Hip-Hop producer. I plan to import viynl to Pro Tools, create my chops and send them to the MPC. Then seqence some sequences and track into Pro Tools for mixing and mastering. Which do you think I should buy? The one thing that worries me about the 2500 is the 100,000 note capacity will this be enough for a hip-hop producer? USB and Hard Drive are mandatory for my purposes.

Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance.

just depends on which one u prefer, go to guitar center or somewhere and experiment to see which one suits your needs

100,000 note capacity is definitely enough for most production applications though

the 4000 has more features than the 2500 along with a bigger price tag

the 2500 also has features that the 4000 doesnt

one more thing to consider is the learning curve, all mpc are fairly easy to use but the 4000 if the hardest of them all, but u'll get used to it with practice

I've used them all and I currently own the 2500, its all in preference

I hope I didnt offend anyone by this post

AH!! I am SO offended by that post!!!!
LOL
The 4000 costs alot, if ya got the dough and you want the most bells and whistles, get it.
I have the 2500 and I'm happy with it.
