live applications: mpc2000 vs. ASR-X



Hello loopers, sorry if these toys have already been discussed in the
last few weeks while I've been away. I'm looking to get a sampling drum
machine and I'm having a hard time deciding between the two (Akai
mpc2000 vs. Ensoniq ASR-X). The Akai seems to have the edge in
user-friendliness and MIDI (two outputs), while the Ensoniq rules with 
internal sounds, better filters, deeper resolution (384 ppq!).

My question: which of these is better live, i.e. which of these can be
tweaked most effectively?

thanks,
rob
