Post by Atziluth »

I don't know if anybody has seen the prices of the MC's on ebay.

A MC-808 for under $300.-
A MC-505 for under $100.-

Nice Christmas presents!!!

What's wrong with these units? They are just throwing away!! Speechless. It's time to pick one!!

The MC-909, from what I understand you need a laptop if you want to use the MC808 properly. But with the MC-909 it's straight out of the box, what you see is what you get.
The MC-909 is a beast!

No, it's not a mistake to get a MC.

The MC 909 is a real stand alone version, just a box. The MC 808 sure can be played stand alone but for full access you need the computer.

But one other reason for having a MC is because it's handy and some live gig (even there are some restrictions, which is a pitty).

So, get a MC 909 then those are cheaper, you can use a SRX card, bigger display and more realtime knobs tweaking.

Good luck
