Using Roland R8 MKII with MOTU MIDI Time Piece AV USB

Roland VS 2400 - Good deal or wrong direction?

Looking to put together a home studio and trying to decide on a starting point (obviously there are many different directions to choose from.
I am having a difficult time deciding which way to go.

Is a standalone a good way to go...or should I be focusing on an interface for a pc based DAW,
such as PreSonus firebox or maybe a Mackie mixer with firewire card, etc.

Using loops with Roland VS-1824CD

I'm planning on buying a Roland VS-1824CD but I first need to know how well this machine works with sampled loops. Does anyone know if it works similar to Acid or more specifically, can you cut and paste the loop and have the ability to change the bpm without changing the pitch? Or are you aware of any digital recorder that works like this? Thanks.
