Roland's er, "tribute" to the classic Akai MPC. Designed to do the things that the Akai never got round to - eg more polyhony, larger sampling time, synthesis etc. Also you to create tracks from the gound up to finished mastered CDs. 128 MIDI tracks, 16 audio tracks, 16 pads
Cane writes This thing totally rocks - almost perfect & everything you wanted in an mpc but MUCH MUCH MORE is finally a reality in this mpc killer workstation!

Comments About the Sounds:
