I have considered it. Have also considered a Force. (Actually, I’m have considered almost every music-making option available - bar Eurorack. I have been spending every free minute in last 6 months reading reviews and forums and watching videos - it’s that bad XD)
I heard bad things about Akai products, build quality doesn’t look too good. They don’t look that appealing to me, for some reason. Probably I’m just more fascinated by odd, uncommon gear (kinda foolish, I know)
Anyway, if I went for the QY I wouldn’t rely on the in-built sounds - they seem nothing to write home about. I am more interested in pairing it with a good, great-sounding sampler.
One modern option that I would go for is the Toraiz SP-16: great sound, great build quality, good pads, seems really easy to use. Too bad the sequencer is lacking, and the price is too high for my finances.
Anyway, thanks a lot for your advice! Will go and look into MPC again.
