Check all the pics, is it weird photo editing or some sort of scam?

Somewhat unrelated question: What does a standalone unit like that get you? Eventually, you would have to migrate the tracks to a PC or laptop anyway, so why not just use a laptop and your DAW of choice?

Having the pads is nice to have, but is really worth it?

What is the use case, is what I am asking. Is there a benefit for live performance?

Edit: Since this will likely attract other digital music folk, are there any good Lemmy communities to check out for music production?

The MPC is a standalone unit. It is a DAW so you don’t need a PC. You can make an entire song on it without ever needing a pc or external editing software, you can connect instruments mics right to it. It’s basically a portable studio.

You can even download updates, instruments, sample kits right on the unit.

It is annoying tho since they started adding features to the PC version of the software that aren’t available in the standalone versions. But you get access to them if you own the hardware.

Looks like we need to make one then. Dunno how much traction it will get but it's worth a shot.
