    Mpc Studio

    So I'm thinking of trying to get a few bucks out of my mpc 500. My question is do you think it would be worth it to cop an Mpc Studio if I already have an mpk mini 2 and use Fl Studio.

Luckily I was smart enough to back up my beats and the programming for them onto a jump drive. Back up...
