Reply to Novation launchpad vs akai mpd26?

Hi folks

I need a bit of advice. I'm currently mixing with 2 decks using an otus, lpd8 and korg nanokontrol. I feel now I am ready to go up to 4 decks as i want samples n loads of cue point juggling as I don't have enough buttons for cue points now for 4 decks. I only like using a single layer on either the nanokontrol and lpd8 to keep it simple.

I want to replace either one of these with the mpd26 or launchpad. they are both similar price but I have had no experiance with either. Which would you choose and why?

thanks for your help.

I love djranking s. all of you have helped me so much. thanks again.
