Was considerin upgradin my mpd 24 to a 32 soon to give extra knob assignment for a live situation. Then along came the MPK 25 into contention. Although im guessin the pads on the mpk will be sub standard to an mpd?

What to buy? :?:

Bought the mpd 32 recently and like it very much. Pads are not brilliant but ok and replaceable with pads delivered by mpcstuff.com.
And its a great controller...check out this vid...:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=31AFfyPXUKQ

Think its famous amongst the ableton heads! Tho jus thought the addition of a few keys at my fingertips might have been useful.

Time to save the last few pennys and buy the mo fo
