It's great for making music. It allows you to control your entire studio thru 2 midi outs. You can make it even better with the aftermarket OS ....J.J. OS. It's my personal favorite. I also have a Maschine but I prefer the MPC1000 for production.

It works but not like I expected - a few pads were dead and some of the buttons, Had to buy a new pad kit and main board to resolve the issues and it was missing a foot. I wouldn't buy like this again!!

Great unit. For those debating the differences between this and the mpc500, definitely take some time and research. They are fundamentally different units. I used this to live sequence multiple pieces of outboard gear, and trigger samples in numerous live gigs over the years and it never let me down. Definitely a learning curve, especially with the way it loads/saves data, but there is plenty of documentation, and a good online community to give support.

I purchased this product because it's accessible, there's a vast community of diverse users, and you can pretty much take it apart and put it back together and replace parts really easy. With JJOS, it's actually the best value hardware out there.

It glitches/shuts off at random. The mpc works but killed my buzz when it decided to shut off. Man I’m mad.
