I'm looking for an "Easy to Use" sampler

[sirgigolo]

Can anyone tell me if I can find a software sampler that can work similar to the MPC when it comes to chopping and looping, and transposing? I get tired of dragging that thing around everywhere. Some of these software samplers are not at all user-friendly. I've been lucky enough to have a few placement opportunities. So, now that Im going to be traveling alot, The less I carry around, the better. Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks,

Try Reason with Recycle. Its not a real sampler but its very easy to use especially if u r coming from a hardware background.

Right now Id say Ableton Live 7. watch the tutorials online or the ones that come with the demo. You can literally record or import audio, highlight regions/chop, and drag it right into the pads of the drum machine plugin it has.

FL studio and the FPC, FL Slicer, or Slicex. Bam there you go.

Renoise is actually all about samples.
