Hi all;
Great community here; I have already answered a lot of questions I had simply by browsing the forum. But I'm hoping I can get some recommendations on samplers/sampling workstations that have the following capabilities:
1. Mute groups
2. Pitch a sample up/down without affecting tempo
3. Change the sample's tempo without affecting pitch
4. A knob to fine tune the start/end points for sample chops would be nice too
So far as I can tell the MPC's are the only ones that meet all of the above. The Zoom Sampletrak comes close, but no mute groups. The SP-202 is missing mute groups and a fine adjustment knob.
If the MPC series is in fact the only product that can do all of the above, could you tell me what the cheapest MPC is that has all of those features?
Also, I'm only looking hardware that can run standalone; I'm trying to get away from the computer
.Thanks in advance!
