Needlz illustrates how he uses his Kurzweil K 2661 keyboard to trigger samples from the Akai MPC 2000 XL. Pay very careful attention, while watching this video. Of course Needlz drops science, but there's also a nice glimpse of his routing chains. And notice how he does use the 8 individual out from his MPC 2000 XL. Also, points out how he's actually more into vintage gear... hmmm... A post-90s era producer who uses vintage equipment to make contemporary music. That's dope.

"As a musical process, beatmaking
beatmaking can be broken down into three separate--
but equally important--spheres: the Technical,
the Logical, and the Creative. The Technical sphere
of hip hop/rap beatmaking refers to
the mechanical processes of making
hip hop/rap music. It involves all the steps
associated with operating various Electronic Music
Production Instruments (EMPIs). This is the sphere where
things like sampling, chopping, looping, sequencing,
recording, mixing, mastering, and such come into play." -Sa'id
