Great video ! And the Mavis is a very good choice for a nice bass. Also, man you are going to LOVE the autosampler in there. It wil actually automatically sample whatever external synth you have and create a keygroup with the sampled notes. Takes a couple of minutes and then you can focus on sound design !

Learned so much from this. Thanks!

Nice tips! For case like you show, where the source is a midi-capable instrument, try the auto sampler. Is one of the most amazing features of these modern mpcs.

Word. It’s flat now.

Didn’t know it was that simple. I’ve been using 16 levés as well.

Good tutorial, but you did put the bass super flat in comparison to the backing loop. :) It was very close in the first place.

Thank you. Great little tutorial on keygroups, and answered my question for me right at the end - why not use 16 levels? Grid edit. Gotya!

You could also use auto sampler instead which is better because you can have your moog synth in your MPC 😁👍🏽

The Pete Rock style

How you liking the mavis? I been thinking about it. Trying to get them neo soul/dilla sounding bass tones but not having any luck with the built-in plug-ins

@lofiprototype

I’d say keygroups comes in handy when you want to play multiple instruments/sounds with a midikeyboard. Like playing the bassline with the left hand while playing a lead or chords with the right hand.

Hell yeah, this video helped a lot. Thank you. Unrelated question, but related. When I try to use just one sample out of an expansion pack, I get an error message saying, sample exists, and I can either replace it, or cancel. Am I not able to use just one Lil sample from a pack? Is it a workflow issue I'm doing?

Question! Ive installed the the MPC Software to my win PC. Using a 3rd party vst instrument, I can not figure out how to set the pads to not play chords so I can use my Native Battery sample kits. I don't know if you know what Battery is basically its a vst that has 16 pads and you apply what every instrument you want to each pads. And the MPC keeps playing chords/multiple pads when I hit just one pad. For example it will pad 1-3-5 at the same time. Any help would be appreciated. I can find any info on this. Probably because I have no clue how to ask this question in short terms

Hi Malo. Thanks for this video. I'd better understand the difference between Keygroup and use 16level. I've got a question. Once you have a keygroup, can you use the note section to define scale, or chord or key (Gmin for example ;^) with the program of your keygroup ? Thanks again for all your tips and explanations about MPC. Take Care.

Can someone help me out? I know how to create a keygroup from any 1 sample. I also know how to autosample via midi & audio cables. What if I have just TWO different WAV files for an external synth...the C2 note on one and C3 note on the other? I thought maybe create a keygroup from the C2 sample and then add C3 as layer 2 in Program Edit but that doesn't work because I don't want C2 and C3 to play at the same time. When you create a keygroup from 1 sample, MPC pitches it up and down to make a keygroup. I want my C2 WAV to cover the C2 - C3 octave and then the C3 WAV to cover the C3 - C4 octave. I don't need below C2 or above C4. So what do I do? How do I start? I can't find 1 YT video that shows this but it has to be possible! What is the correct way to take 2 different notes (1 wav file each) to create a good sounding keygroup? I know I can just create a keygroup from 1 of the notes but I have to believe that adding the 2nd note (or more) will give a better sound. If anyone can walk me through it step by step I'd really appreciate it!

Why assign the sample to a drum program then convert it to a keygroup? You could have just created a keygroup and assigned the sample to it.. doing it your way, You now have 2 programs . The convert to keygroup function is more for existing drum programs.
