Akai MPC Studio Vs. Maschine Mikro MK2

[StickyWicket]

I'm trying to decide on which one to get and would like to know what you guys think......
I'll be using it in the studio in generating my own beats and will be using it with Sonar X3. I'd like to know which would integrate well with my DAW as I don't want to be spending a crazy amount of time troubleshooting.
I do expect to have a bit of a learning curve with either one as I've never owned these types of controllers, but compatibility would be a big plus.

Thanks,
