but if u can afford the mpc go for it..

I don't know much about makin beats, but I know some tight producers who work with MPC's so I'd say give it a go.

If you're just starting out download fruityloops or ableton plus an 808 drum pack and go to town

I use fruity loops 5 and 7 and I'm pretty much good with it. Some producers doubt if I use fruityloops cos I know all the tricks on em. mpc is good but you can try Sonar
