Re: ASR-X Pro vs. MPC2000




The only thing I could say (well, the two things...)

1) The MPC maxes out at 10 audio outs, not two - it has a left and right 
out
built in, and you can add another board that gives you eight more outs,
assignable. 

2) I came into the sampler / sequencer market from a guitarist's 
background,
not from a midi/keys background, and I found the MPC to be the most 
intuitive,
easiest to use, get-it-out-of-the-box-and-get-moving devices that I tried
(compared to the ASR, and compared to the Roland DJ-70 I made the mistake 
of
purchasing...). 

If you are conversant in the ins and outs of samplers and midi, and you 
need
to utilize all the advantages that the ASR has over the MPC (which don't 
seem
like super much to me, but I still haven't maxed out my usage of the MPC),
then maybe the ASR is the better choice, but if you want something that's 
very
easy to use and understand, I'd pick (and have picked) the MPC.
