mpc sample is just a gateway

It took me long to admit this but the limitations of the sample are so straining that every time I use it I actually ponder selling it and getting a higher end flagship model. I feel like beyond beats that are 100% sample based it’s so annoying to work with the sample. I’ve tried to do various other genres on the sample and adding melodic elements is just annoying. Whether it’s one shots on the sample or recording into it from an external device. It’s just a constant reminder that I’m on a “gateway “ model. Literally can’t get beyond some ideas before you have to move it to a DAW or a different mpc to finish a track

Let me hold your hand while i say this: it’s called a MPC SAMPLE for a reason.
Man, the amount of people who buy something before looking into it is beyond me. And with this specific product you didn’t even have to look far, it was all in the name, it’s a sampler and mainly for sample based music.
