Just wondering how many electronic music producers are looking at the MPC 5000 and saying, " I cold do that stuff with my DAW and VST plugins". I don't need no steenking MPC. Are there folks who are going to plunk down the MSRP for the 5000? I realize there are diehard MPC users- just wondering about the impact of seeing the image in this article on users. Are you going down to the music store to play one?
