Do I need to buy a whole keyboard/MIDI Controller to get sharps and flats?

I know that there’s a keyboard mode, but when I’m using the plug-ins, I can only use the natural notes unless I go to the grid and input the sharps and flats (the black keys) myself.

Is there a way to do it through the 16 levels or something? Or is this where the midi controller comes in?

What’s your go to store?

Ordering MPC Sample; where should I order from? Does anywhere get “better picks” or is more reliable?

Guitar Center: In Stock– June

Zzounds.com: In Stock– June/July

Sweetwear.com: In Stock– July

Amazon: “Currently unavailable.
We don't know when or if this item will be back in stock.”

Prices are the same give or take, and theyre all going to take a while; probably longer than the estimated time anyway

New or used??

Obviously as soon as I decide to buy the Sample because it was finally back in stock on Amazon *POOF* they’re gone..

Anyway REAL QUESTION: Found a MPC Sample on Fb Marketplace thats “only been used a couple times”.

Amazon/Guitar Center: $425ish
FB Marketplace: $450 maybe talk him down

Worth it??? Or do I wait and see when its gets back in stock eventuallyyyy

Do I need a new MPC?

Things like this, random folders showing up even after I deleted them, the same files in multiple places when I hadn’t moved them (90% sure).. somehow my storage is almost all used up when I have all my expansions and projects saved on my SD Card.

I dont want to start deleting all the kits and things that came with my MPC (as far as i know because I got it refurbished).

The “Tap Tempo” button starts flashing again after I turn it off. Sometimes I have to hit buttons multiple times for it to so to the next screen; like “Program Edit” and “Shift+Menu” to get to the Grid.

Am I just slow or is there something wrong? lol
Do I need to bring it back and get a different one or try a different model?

Looking for new pads for my MPC One+ but theres not a wide variety like the other models.
Are there any other pads meant for the other models that also work for the MPC One+? If so which ones
