No compressor on the output of an MPC2KXL. Guess thats on the newer 
units..
I spent a small amount of time when i first got(the mpc)it listening to 
it when you pressed stop! With the right samples in there it kicks arse!
Its just a solid pumping groove machine!
We where doing psychedelic trance at the time...
Of course you also get to choose your drum samples or what ever your 
going to use.
I just never got used to crap interface, thats why the XL appealed.
Quite like the quasaimidi 309 interface, thats great fun to busk about 
on. Have to spend time programming your own sounds though with it, it 
very capable of cheesey pap...
