Clearly the video is cashing in on a whole load of legacy hype, but, Im starting to think they might have got the formula right..<br><br>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkF-evh5msA<br><br>Possibly the big selling point is going to be all the i/o. If you are sensible about this i/o you will realise that it is a complete waste of hardware/money; we all have i/o coming out of our ears! However, by adding this unnecessary(?) i/o, the box moves way beyond 'just another midi controller' and starts to look and feel like a real MPC..<br><br>This MPC could have almost been designed by Steve Jobs; its taking a whole load of stuff that we don't need or want and repackaging it into something that is then marketed as a product that is greater than the sum of it's parts..<br><br>I think this MPC could be quite a hot product.. Time will tell..<br><br>Paul<br>London<br><a target="_blank" href="http://www.punkdisco.co.uk">www.punkdisco.co.uk</a><br>Text
