NT Beatmakers/Producers, whats your setup? Vol. Drum Pads/Machines

[hella handsome]

Pretty much what the title says, I'm looking into a new pad controller/drum machine. 
I have it narrowed down to a couple choices, the MPD 32, NI Maschine, and the Kord Pad Control. 

My question is, whats you guys' history with any of these and which do you gusy prefer or could recommend? 

Currently I'm using an M-Audio Axiom 25, and I'm looking for a drum only setup.

gettin somethin just for drums is a novelty/waste imo... just use the keys

I picked up a Pad Kontrol a while ago and it's definitely a good choice if money's an issue. The only downfall is the lack of knobs/faders and if you really need those then just get the MPD.

I've also been looking at copping either the Maschine or an MPC but I can't really decide.
