the mpc 's sequencer is beautiful though...very intuitive and easy to
use...the cheapest way to go would be software based sampling/sequencing,
digital granulation etc... you already have a computer so...get on hotline
or some such equivilent and you can download the software at a great
discount.
i find the best set up is a balance of hardware, software....analog and
digital, though don't be under any illusions this costs alot of money....but
just like josh says...it's more about what you do with the equipment than
the equipment itself.
goodluck
