I didn't mess with the software for like 3 years. But once I did I never looked back. You don't ever really have to mess with the software when you are in controller mode it works the same. It actually allows you to mess with so many plugins from third parties. And it also performs faster . You guys don't know what you're missing

i have only one problem and it may be a user error. My controller mode acts weird from time to time and it could be a RAM issue with my computer. But it will not play notes in my pads or vice versa on my mpc key 37. I'm looking to buy a new Apple with 16 gigs of RAM and currently waiting on Akai to fulfill a ticket I submitted. Any suggestions will help and I can use STEMS fine but so far I haven't needed it because I have a nack for searching out great samples but I imagine it will come to good use eventually. Another thing is I have a MPC one and Key 37 so I can run my STEMS into audio tracks straight from the my Monitor output.

Hola, Buenos Dias. As a Standalone user, I have had a subscription to the software for like a year now, I never have actually used the AKAI DAW, I just link the two so I can move files around. BUT NOW With STEMS out I totally linked my MPC_x to the DAW software, this is officially now is my new set up!! STEMS AND ALL!! Its an easy workaround, thanks for showing everyone!!

It's totally flawless and I'm staring at the MPC most of the time. It even makes it easier to edit on screen and so much more. Oh yeah, you can access your drives on the conputer, as well as your drives within your MPC all at once. This totally works for me. I've loved controller mode day one.

I GET IT! Dawless this, dawless that; this is why we all gravitated to the MPC in the first place. BUT not hooking up your mpc (new ones) to your computer is a DISSERVICE! Like another commenter stated, you dont HAVE to interact with the pc but the benefits outweigh everything but portability! It legit just makes your mpc an MPC XXL: all your samples from pc, all your plugins, somethings are better with the mouse, having keyboard to type in sample names and the like is great too! I used to be standalone only now it's really just controller mode

Thanks Lind's Son, I like your workflow. There are some things I picked up, and I especially like that you used that Mother Ducker to make that beat bounce. I gotta get more into that for sure. I picked up Stems and I used it on a beat my nephew gave me to cook up. For now I know I'll start using the MPC software at least to utilize MPC Stems more. I'm more comfortable with stand-a-lone though. Thanks again for the video.

@lindasson

Hey fam, I really appreciate you watching and sharing that. Mother Ducker really gives you that sidechain feel and the Beat comes alive! The only time I turn on controller mode is when I use Stems, and once they fully convert it to Standalone, I'm leaving it alone lol!! Appreciate you fam!🙏🏾✊🏾💚

I will say this. The best part of using a controller mode is the fact that you have access to your hard drive and if you're used to stand alone mode, you can continue to use the buttons on the MPC instead of a mouse to click through. The funny thing is I started on the software version and thought it was just stupid. The software version still is in my opinion dumb looking. However, My opinion on using the software is simply skip it, learn to use standalone version and all your shortcut keys then come back to the software as it will make more sense and is much more easier to navigate using the hardware. Hopefully that makes sense to new users. Lastly, I'm also mad at the software version because I spent all this money on my MPC and now i need to upgrade my computer. My most powerful device right now is a iPad pro and making music on that is a beast. It's time all these music people switched to iPad and tablets. That's the future. Not a computer that's going backwards. They need to update their iPad app to the real MPC app and not the garbage they have in the app store. The iPad is the future. Mark my words.
