Tech support aren’t much help, and the company brand manager is also less than stellar. Thank you TubeDigga, really.

Much needed for anybody new to MPC. Getting your head around these concepts, and how they articulate, is crucial (and not necessarily intuitive).

You're my hero, Tube Digga :) Thanks for those brilliant tutorials!

i was having SOOO much trouble getting started on my MPC Live when i bought it in december, but thanks to you i think i FINALLY got a good understanding of how to really get started making beat like i did back in the day. your vids been a lot of help! thanks! cheers mate!

I have just started to learn MPC live and learning so much from your tutorial videos. Thank you for your work!

This is the best intro tutorial I seen .. no gimmicks just straight to the point. Thank you

THANX for this indepth info! Since there is no manual with MPC Live, us newer users rely on these online tutorials.

This actually was one of the better, briefer and to-the-point videos on the topic, that covered a few really basic things that anyone who just acquired an MPC would need. Kudos and thanks. (just got MPC One the other day..)

Excellent video! A great reference for beginners or those of us migrating from older legacy MPC's. Many thanks and looking forward to more of your videos!

That's a struggle everyone goes through when they get a new piece of gear with different functionality and terminology than you're used to. I wish all gear and software had a universal language. I get why they don't though. They want you to learn how to use their stuff and stick with it. It's how these companies make money. Apple does the same shit with computers and phones. Most electronics and software nowadays only come with general instructions. Then they rely on tech geeks to teach us how to use it (no offense to the tech geeks, we appreciate you).

I just got my first MPC.... After an hour or so I sort of started to figure this lot out but even after reading the manual I wasnt quite sure and reasonably confused..... This video cleared things right up.... Thanks for your help... You have a new follower & fan !!!

2 weeks in with my MPC One and I thought I was already pretty damn good with it, was so proud of a beat I made. But apparently I need to watch this video because I absolutely cannot figure out how to move 1 note in my sample chop without screwing up the entire damn track lol. Been messing with it on and off for days and it's not making any sense. This sucker's definitely got a deeeeep learning curve. Probably gonna watch all your videos then sign up for your masterclass.

Thank you

finally after months of frustration and honestly considering moving to different system ( was gonna sell my brand new MPC X as struggled with understanding overwhelming complexity of this weird system ) so - finally someone explains why on heaven I could not hear the overdubbed guitar audio track during recording the song!!! This video tutorial might be the MOST important ( last 6 minutes ) part of understanding why on Akai things just doesn't work as you would expected as they go against the human logic. For guitar player like myself who use always super easy and logically constructed software and mechanical loopers this is a mile stone of learning language of akai. Basically u always overdub but when you plug guitar to quickly add additional sounds you DO NOT OVERDUB but record instead! A secret that Akai hides from you for years and years is now exposed. I asked around so many people and they said they had the same issue so they all said use the sampler/looper to add guitar/ as with MPC X you can oddly only pre-record track and said MPC is rather useless for guitar users. Just because of this stupid little thing that no one knows. Thank you for saving me from selling this machine away.I will try this new trick instead of using sampler only. You should be a tutor for entire Akai official support team as they know literally nothing that goes behind the basic script / couple pages of quick start plug and play basic knowledge.

You are a saint

You were at 1000... I was 27.8 rounded somewhere.. that's how fuckin Gangstar your knowledge to the renne this is.. mad luv

Nice thanks.

Your videos are very thorough and super helpful. It's really helped me to hit the ground running with my new MPC X. Question for you: during this example you switched patterns with the data wheel on the fly so you could jump from sequence one to sequence two when demoing your duplication of the drum program where the one was five semitones down. I've noticed that on my MPC X, sometimes when I do that there is an audio crunch and slow down when it jumps to the new sequence. It seems to be fairly random and does not happen all the time. For clarity, when the one sequence stops playing and it jumps into the new sequence it's almost like the CPU sometimes has a hard time handling it on the fly and the audio gets garbled for maybe half a second to a second and then gets back to normal. Is that normal when just jumping between sequences? I'm not talking during heavy lifting either... there are say five different tracks playing sample data? Not a lot of VST's or heavy stuff, some fairly simple programs. I know people talk about some bugs still with MPC live so just curious if that's a common behavior?

@TUBEDIGGA

6 жыл бұрын

David Goodale That doesn’t sound great David. I think my Live may have done that once and possibly under heavy strain or running audio tracks. Are you sure everything was totally simple? Or were you also using audio tracks on top? Even so, that shouldn’t be happening as regularly as you stated. Does it occur when you use ‘Next Sequence’ to launch your sequences?

@TUBEDIGGA

David Goodale By the way, you mentioned VSTs, are you using the MPC in controller mode when this happens? In standalone my Live has done this maybe once, but has otherwise been rock solid.

They are two completely different functions. Exporting patterns exports a file for later use in other projects. Copying a track copies a track and all it’s data to another track within the current project you’re working in.
