"a whole lot of something for nothing."

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
i'd be satisfied for many years to come. even if i don't become a germaine dupre, or a puffy combs.
Sound
the drum and bass sounds are top notch. i just wish the would've added more,like instruments. they killed a perfect 10 all around.
Features
the most useful features is the machine itself. c-mon, it doesn't take a musical rocket scientist to figure this thing out. it still lacks one important feature though. "were are the damn instuments"! that takes away points from it.
Quality
i wish that the knobs were glued to the thing. some one stole the knobs.
Value
definately worth the price. every producer should have one even if you own an mpc2000xl.
Manufacturer Support
i haven't dealt with the company yet, but that's because i've had no problems with it.
The Wow Factor
i love the black box with the orange trimmings.

Musical Style:

hip hop/r&b
