Mpc 2000 Xl Vs Exs24, Is it worth it??? Options

[Mizzeh]

Hey everyone,
I'm the new guy ...Hopefully this will be my home for odd and unusual questions!! hahaha
Anyway, I have had an MPC 2000 XL for a while now and I must admit, I have not really used it for any projects thus far. I couldn't seem to get around the learning curve with this particular piece of gear...for what ever reason. In the near future I will be purchasing a large amount of studio gear including the G5 and Logic 7 which comes with the EXS24. My question is, should I sell my MPC because the EXS24 is easier and sounds just as good if not better than the MPC or keep it for reasons hopefully you will be able to give me.
Thank you very much.

In my experience, everyone who gets Logic and the EXS24 immediately dumps their hardware samplers. The EXS24 is a very nice thing.

Saying that, there are some people who like to stick with hardware for some jobs - because of a particular sound, a way or working or simply to take the strain off the computer.

My advice: sit on the MPC for a while as you learn to use the EXS24 and then reconsider your position. Second-hand gear regrettably fetches much less than we'd like, so it might be nice just to keep it around, if you can afford that luxury.
