It's the MPC4000 actually, and they're going for closer to $3000 (or was 
it $3200?) in the stores.  I think it's a very cool box, but just too 
expensive in light of todays software sequencing environment.  For that 
much money you could get a bad ass PC (or laptop) with an RME card, and 
Cubase SX, and probably still have cash left over.  For those people who 
don't want to go the PC route, it doesn't really offer more than say 
MPC2000XL combined with a good sound module or external sampler.  Just my 
$.02

is it just me or is the mpc3000 a bit too pricey?  I suppose 24bit 96k is 
cool.  But 4500$ cool?  Now i'm back to wanting the Hartmann Neuron!!!
