Ok and my opinion is that the article is a joke. Also you telling me that it was the pinnacle of beat machines of it's time is like apple conveying to us every time that this is their best computer yet (an even more ridiculous joke). The OP is actually titled THE BEST DRUM MACHINE OF ALL TIME. My guess is that someone quite young wrote this.
For example is this serious information to you?
The Timing
When you talk to fans of the MPC 3000, you hear them talk about “The Feel.” They will tell you that the feel of the 3000 is like no other drum machine or sampler that exists. This is due to the timing that Roger Linn built into the machine. The timing on the MPC 3000 is extremely tight and about as true as you can get. It will record exactly what you play. Essentially, it is the essense of what a “groovebox” is.
The sequencer on the MPC 3000 is second to none.
This is just false. The sequencer on it is good, but of course there are many vastly better sequencers.
Disclaimer: I've used many sequencers including the one we are discussing.
