What to replace my OP1 with.

I'm fairly new to this. I bought an OP-1 a little while back, just because I wanted to get my hands on one, and got it cheap enough I knew I could on-sell it for a small profit.

While it's fun, it's not really for me. What's a different, much cheaper portable groovebox I could try out? Features I would really like:

  • Load in a midi loop so the synth or drum engine can play that.
  • A way to give clips named labels.
  • MIDI in and out.
  • Portable - battery or USB power.

Second hand kit only, I'll be scraping the classifieds for bargains. Does the Novation Circuit or Roland MC101 do these things? If I could find a cheap Synthstrom I'd give that a try, but such things don't seem to exist.
