on the sp1200 and mpc 60;
The reason is because of the lack of knowledge. Why do you think more and more of them turn up used?

To answer the other question; the mpc 4000 has the swing feature where it shifts the notes off grid. DUDE TRUST ME. Go to your local music dealer and mess with it.
I would describe the sound of the MPC 4000 as Strong more than clean. It is clean sounding but the quality of the sound is tremendous and very phatt and thick sounding.
