“When I make a beat with the MPC I have to physically record the tracks one at a

time into my DAW. This loses a little quality and takes alot of time, When i

create with my Laptop everything stays within the DAW and is instantly ready to process more and mix without any loss

of quality”

FAST FACTS

• Sending session files via the web 5000 miles away takes minutes while sending beat disks and tape through the mail is Slow

• Some hardware can now transfer to wav files but unit takes longer to save and there is always o chance of files missing parts which happens often with an MPC

• Computers can easily download files from net and transfer to and from file formats with ease.

• Computers have thousands of apps available from program developers and users to help with formats , audio editing and realtime online collaboration while dedicated hardware has a few apps and plugins available from the factory that makes the unit

more Collaboration General Public Uses a computer

Online Training programs such as Lynda.comfeature extensive training for programs but not for hardware.

Many more options for Online forums to meet other producers and users of computer software

Demo and Contests for new jobs and prizes usually require submission of a wave file not Mpc or Keyboard Files.


“Artists have sent me files that i retrieved on my phone while driving and I have made changes with my

phone to a project and sent them back within the hour!” Although its a personal preferance to still

wanna use my MPC. I think the computer is the majority format”

“The MPC has a sound all of its own but it is limited to a certain sound. The computer can emulate the sound

of the MPC and do a thousand other things”

Swell Perry- StudioBums.com

Studios want Software pro’s Most Professional Studios require engineers to be Protools certified.

Most Professional Songwriters and Musicians use the industry standard Pro Tools or Logic to be compatible with more studios and producers.

Many more teaching positions available for certified recording and production software.


“For the last 10 years ive seen my business of selling sounds for Hardware drum machine units drop in Half! while selling discs with wave files still selling strong. I beleive that more producers are abandoning hardware because of the power of the laptop. 10 years ago a computer could not even come close to the power of the MPC, today the reverse

is true!”
