Soapbox appreciated. My new MPC One is on order. I'm a software engineer so the technicalities are in my wheelhouse but I'm still a total newb with the MPC.
I'll be mounting an SD card on it immediately and from what I've seen here so far I think I will stick with 2.10 firmware for a while as well.
Thanks for the advice.
No worries, and congrats! MPC One is still one of the best deals for a groovebox in the entire industry, IMHO. 2.10 firmware is OK, but I've been on 2.11 since it launched (currently on 2.11.7) and haven't experienced any show stopping bugs. But then again, I use all of the newer plugins in standalone (Flavor Pro, Mini-D, etc) and don't need a USB Class Compliant audio interface hooked up.
