Feature:
Compared to its brothers, your really not missing too much when you purchase this unit. Lets put it this way, if you have a computer with software already your already ahead of the game.

Quality:
I give this a perfect 10. No loose part, solid as a 70's Chevy.

Value:
The value is a lil' high I think. But it's well worth it. Like I said before, as long as you have a computer with software that can do what the older brothers can do you can't loose.

Desirability:
I have it & dont regret getting it one bit. Very very satisfied.

Sound:
The sounds that YOU put in here could sound amazing. The quality is CD/HD quality. Very compatible with my music style since I am doing Hip/HOP, R&B & PoP.

Ease of Use:
Very very easy to use. I think people just think it's too hard to work with, but the truth is it's probably the most basic thing to learn.

Support:
I have used some support. They're are on top of their business they know what your talking about & you dont have to deal with somebody from India that doesn't speak English. Straight out of Rhode Island.

Overall:
Overall I will dish out a perfect 10. Just because i had just about every other hardware & software available & this lil' BIG guy has surpassed everything that I thought it would & could do. AMAZING. JUST AMAZING product.

Feature:
I love the fact, it's a portable studio on the go, about 90% of the features, the bigger units carry. Would like to have a bigger screen and chop mode for samples.

Quality:
Just like any other MPC i ever touched

Value:
At first, i thought it was little expensive, but now that i had it for a bit , i think is worth it.

Desirability:
looks good,feels good.

Sound:
Same MPC quality

Ease of Use:
Im still learning the 500, everyday i use it, i find something to be more useful ,in my productions.

Support:
Haven't needed it thus far.

Overall:
i use other programs like reasons, to make music as well, it links up well to my daw set-up, and the sequencing on the mpc is second to none...

Feature:
The sampler is what gets my attention on every MPC!..i love to sample!

Quality:
the quality is nice!its real solid and u dont have to be afraid everytime u pick it up thinking it will break!

Value:
yes!!!

Desirability:
The look is HOt!It gives u a modern day MPC look like the others of their times!

Sound:
the sound is madd professional and clear!..damn near like HD(lol)

Ease of Use:
...im having a little trouble w/ the navigation!

Support:
they really made me feel like a friend!

Overall:
...a complete studio in my lab whenever, wherever!

Feature:
Find out for yourself before I make you bouncing off the wall so you can get it.

Quality:
You do not want me to get into talking about the quality so I will just say I give it a 10/10 - no actully I give it extra credit it's 15/10

Value:
The price is expensive but I think it's worth, people think it's smaller so it must have less features - not true. It's smaller with same features, people should be happy it's this much because if they knew what the MPC500 had they would know it's worth more than $2000.

Desirability:
Damn! This thang is sexy. This thang got ass. It got curves. The looks attracted me when I first saw it. Love at first sight.

Sound:
The sound is I should say number one. The sound responds even better than I imagined. It is a real easy device because it's just the same as other MPC's but smaller and portable. It has an incredible sequencer. It's design is simple and sexy.

Ease of Use:
Real easy, it is the most easiest MPC I have ever worked with. It's just like a PSP because the real PSP system is PS2 and the MPC500 is just like MPC2500/MPC4000 but same quality and same sound just smaller, the PS2 might have better graphics than PSP but that isn't how the MPC500 is, this MPC is the same thing as it's brothers.

Support:
Real nice company real friendly.

Overall:
This my baby I ain't never gon' break up with it.
