I’ve been thinking about getting a new groovebox for a while now… Actually I didn’t know what they were called until I saw that first post on this community then it all clicked! (Thanks btw!!)

I’ve played around with an old kaossilator and it was pretty fun but I’d like something I can maybe put my own sounds in? If that’s generally a really exorbitantly priced feature then I can skip it.

Any suggestions on where I should get started?

Thanks in advance!!

    Have you checked out any of the MPC products? If you’re into sampling and chopping then you’ve definitely got to consider something.

    For around $550 you could get a used MPC One. Might be going down now with the MPC One+ getting released.

    Another option is just a MIDI controller that would work well with their free DAW, MPC Beats. It’s the same workflow but you have to work while connected to a computer. For less than $200 bucks there are a bunch of keyboards with controls and drum pads that would be totally fun. The MPK Mini MK3 is one I’ve been meaning to get so it’s easier to control softsynths.
