I like the way the MD sampling and sample down pitching sounds.

I like live resampling à la OT + crazy retrigs and a filter on top, I always get some crazy bass lines out of this!
MD is always a pleasure to play with, to me.

I took a short excerpt from the manual for those that don’t know about the uniqueness of the UW part of the MD.
[“UW” is short for “UserWave”, inspiration was drawn from the 12-bit samplers of the 1980’s, for example the EMU SP-1200. The sound from these instruments were often very character-istic and had a punch and grit that can be hard to obtain today.]
The MD adds its own character to your source material - it has nothing to do with opting for an Octatrack as a sampler instead of finding an MD with UW; it’s character cannot be imitated!

I have both and despite my love with the OT, have to concur.
