1st time posting and recent enthusiast to the whole djing thang. I was interested in the roland sp-808 sampler, but have noticed that people are saying it is really a live DJs sampler, and I would not be using a sampler for live play. I want a good sampler for home use. mpc 2000 maybe?? help me decide yall!!

Go to your local DJ store and ask to see th folloing samplers:

1.Roland Boss DR-202 or 303
2.Yamaha SU 10
3.Yamaha su 200
4.Akai remix 16
they are verry good for home use, but can also be used for live use as I saw alot of live DJ's use them,(also they are great iif your on a budget)...

Laterz :-)

mmhh i would suggest one of these "realtime boxes" (from best to cheapest):

. yamaha RS7000
. akai mpc2000xl
. Yamaha su700
. KORG Electribe ES-1
. Yamaha su200


the ones big abz mentionned are "ok" for djing, but to compose music they are too limited. This list is more profesional.

These are not "studio rack samplers" but will be great to work on in realtime. If you are new to all of this stuff these are easier to use as you dont need a computer to control them and to write music.

One last advice: always upgrade the RAM (memory) to MAX.

ahh i just saw that you said "i wont play live" so maybe you should get Cubase or Logic (sequencers), a good MIDI interface (midiman USB 4x4 is good), and a Yamaha A5000 or Akai S5000 (with USB option and latest OS) or something
