Whenever you talk MPC's you are rubbin my itch so I gotta chime in.

Years ago I was saying they should merge the MPC and a rack sampler, and they did with the MPC 4K.

Now I wish they would

1. make the sequencer have a groove quantize feature where you can snatch the groove from audio,

2. An audio to midi function,

3. a sequencer resolution of 960 ppq instead of 96.

4. They could include a flam button along with the note repeat. Hell for that matter they could include the feel and other parameters of the Roland R8 (ONe of the world's greatest drum machines as far as programming, If it sampled I wouldnt use and MPC)

I'd like to be able to use plugins also like the waves transient designer, and filter bank/compressor bank, along with the URS API EQ but I'm not choosey.

Hell for all that they should just make a soft synth/plugin MPC where you could have the real feel of an MPC, then you would be able to use your plugs. They could package it with their little midi pad set up, that way you'd have a virtual MPC, and they would still get to sell a hardware piece.
