If I'm trying to make a beat should I use a beat machine as well as a keyboard or should I just use to beat machine by itsself?

Go to a recording studio mate, they usually have a whole array of options you can use.

Some people aren't able to move through a recording studio unfortunately. You don't have to use both. You an use one or the other. It depends on what you are trying to do with your beat. If you want to add a piano to your beat then you can use a keyboard and use the beat machine for something else. IT just all depends I guess.

You can do more with a beat machine than you can with a keyboard.

The ASR-X pro is a classic. I broke my asr two months ago. Now I'm looking on ebay for a new one.

I use the Akai Remix 16 with max memory for all my main sampling . You guys don't know about this bad boy. This sampler is not leaving my studio.  Feature List A stereo sampler designed specifically for phrase sampling and DJ live performance 16-bit linear stereo sampling 16 pads for triggering sampled phrases "Hold" mode to automatically repeat beat loops Bend/Scratch slider Flexible Monitoring section allows auditioning and sampling from turntable or CD Familiar Crossfader and Transformer buttons to control input/output mix Tap tempo Four-track sequencer Built-in floppy disk drive for sample and sequence storage 2MB of RAM standard Powerful (but easy-to-use) editing Sample compatibility with the entire range of Akai's "S" series samplers Industrial-strength replaceable sliders A tough metal housing that's equally at home in a coffin or a studio Featuring the mind-bogglingly hip Beat-Loop function Makes it easy to synchronize multiple phrases For each phrase, input the number of beats and the desired tempo The REMIX16 instantly adjusts the phrase to play at exactly that tempo |

I never seen the remix 16 before.... are there any comparable samplers Well from what I looked up it looks like it's comparable MPC 2000 it think. Chambers should be able to confirm gsquad. |

I'd try to get both, the keyboard can be good with more mellow tones as well as you can do more as to multi tasking.
