Stephan, have you used the MPC without sight?

Those are very interesting to me, especially now that they finally got 
24 bit samples, but I haven't met any blind users of the Akai MPC.

I have wanted to buy the Native Instruments Maschine, but think it may 
be not so easy to run without being able to constantly look at the screen.
I know for certain that some selections in Maschine must be made from 
the screen, such as browsing to samples to load them
I don't think I could even get samples loaded onto pads.
How much do you need to do in the Akai MPC that would be easier with 
sight, or is it also impossible without seeing?
Thanks,
Indi.
