Very strange.

It appears they’ll just rebrand a few record cutters and call it a product. TE always comes off as really low quality for the types of prices they charge.

The MPC Sample is 400$ and looks well built, the KO2 is 300$ and has faders falling off.

Roland has a few samplers in the same price range as well.



Have both and none is falling apart. Both have their advantages, the Sample is a more robust and also just bland, KO2 is more fun and interesting. It’s comparable to Nintendo vs Sony, both excellent in their own way.
