    what would be the advantage of linking the 2 together? Educate me, sounds interesting.

    Shadow does this, and I think the Bomb Squad used to do it too. Basically it doubles the amount of samples you can run.

    So on one MPC you can run 4x16 pads equaling 64 sounds. With two you can run 128 samples. Very good for dense layered Bomb-squad-josh productions.
