i think this is probably the smarter way to do it... they release the new OS with "limitations"... then release new hardware that doesnt have those "limitations" with the new OS.... its much better to do it that way, than to release the new hardware first, then port the same OS with less features to older machines

I believe we are at the last of the era of the current generation MPCs. I have a feeling Akai is going to start replacing each of the current MPC models with new versions containing updated hardware, faster processor, more ram, etc.... Maybe the MPC X SE and Key 61 will be around for a while because they already have 4GB of ram, but I have a feeling the MPC Live II, Key 37, and MPC One will be updated with newer 4GB ram models. To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if the MPC One was dropped altogether and replaced by the Key 37. I can see the Key 37 just being a better overall option for the entry-level price point because it is still very portable and it already has a keyboard, whereas an MPC One plus external midi controller makes for a clunkier setup. I think the Key 37 should be updated not only with 4GB of ram, but also with an expansion bay for an SSD. It only makes sense considering the fact it is a keyboard and the new 3.0 software has a disk streaming feature.

New MPC with real proces rs, like M3 OR more and more ram... I think it's time for a real change.

How do you install 3rd party MPC Expansion Packs into MPC Studio

lol thats not tube digga

One is just more REVERBY!

HEY Ben, any way to chop and play sample chops with the keys on the MPC Key 61?

Now with the latest firmware release, it should be more intuitive.

I really like the look for the new mpc 3

Good video and valid questions. I made a live stream about MPC 3 yesterday and the only concern really that I have is if we’re gonna have to use the touch screen way more than on 2.0. I hope not as one of the reasons I like the MPC is to be more hands on and get away from spending 99% of our lives looking at screens lol.

The fact that the stem plugin needs more juice says everything. Akai is about to bring the juice. Plus, Roger Linn is lurking around.

Great question, I believe the software is delayed because of the new MacOS (we know how it goes with Macs). Akai is definitely doing a public beta to ensure the new hardware launch is smooth. The new hardware will be a beast being able to handle warping samples and stem separation better in standalone. It will have to offer multiple USB C connections one for connecting to the software and the other as an interface connection to sent 16 ins and out. All hopes, but for sure they will add some APC64 features.

yep, simple example, the edit programm button is confusing for new people since there are no more programms to edit, only trracks. Akai wants to release new hardware with the proper writing above the buttons.

If they made new hardware that could load 3rd party vsts I would throw money at them for new hardware

It seems reasonable that new hardware would come to exploit MPC 3.0. Only Akai knows for certain.

Way to go without being a hater. Appreciate you.

Yes , more hardware is coming.

Good observations Ben!

Hmmm, why title the video "MPC Firmware" and show other people's footage of MPC 3 for standalone, when you're talking about the desktop software on your Mac?

The devil I do know versus the devil I don't. Frankly, I never cared much for the Force so I don't get how it's going to make things better. I'll try it but may be stuck at 2.15.

Good vid B, as always. You might wanna trim it at 7:08 forward. Looking forward to your further observations of mpc 3.0.

I have a m1 Mac Pro that runs the mpc software , I’m able to get plugins aswell ,

I KNOW CRAZY RIGHT❓️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

Hello Ben 👋

Hi Ben, love your sounds and the fact you use your mpc for more traditional composing like me, just a note about the m1 Mac, I am a little confused,, I run my keys 37 in controller mode pretty much all the time and make a lot of use of all my vst and Audio Units, I have an m1 Mac mini and have never had i issues running the MPC Software alongside the keys, apart from the fact that vst3 is not supported and for some reason I have to use the audio unit versions of some plug ins as the software will not find some of the vst versions?

🫡👍🏾🫡

Hi Ben I guess the convergence with the force was not expected... right? LOL. The force community has been waiting for the next update for 2 months.

i was using the sampler and i guess i didnt enable monitoring so my sample is only coming out of one speaker is there a way to fix the sample after you've already recorded it bro

Dropped today ans it's Massiveeeee

Imma let you finish, but ALL OUT - AMPD is the best guitar solution fully sampled from real guitar through analog outboard gear on MPC. 😅

Hwy Ben, are the effects I hear like reverb or delay baked into the patches? Thanks

Great explaination and great playing too! thank you

Man too advance for me I need the basics lol

Does this work for any instrument/keygroup? I tried changing my LFO/Mod wheel settings to match what you did, but the sound doesn't change at all. Pitch bend worked though.

Most excellent Ben!!!

You are the best bro👍🏽

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

That Thin E Pees sounds great. The work seems meticulously done. Do any patches have loop points set for drones?

🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢 Best Addition to my MPC This Bundle Rocks Period.. Thanks Ben🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

Good idea I'll give that ago in software, I don't have a MPC.

Ben, great video Am looking for strings (harp, violin, upright bass..), brass (trumpets, trombones, sax, flutes),woodwinds, tuba Trying to build my sound library now I have all of the drums I need (ea Ski drum) however I know it's not possible to get all of these in one bundle Can you recommend a place to shop

Great video and walkthrough, brother! I've been so busy over the summer and haven't even spent much time in my studio or with my MPCX. Just hearing these sounds again reminds me that I want them all and will eventually get them after all the gigging subsides from the busy season. Hoping all is well my friend 🙏🏼🎹

Some of the most amazing sounds available on any workstation. bar none. Thank you for the excellent work Ben

Ben, your sampling skills are excellent.

Good work. Sounds good brother.

🔥👊🧡👍🔥

I'm a drummer, that's good 👍

🔥👊🧡👍🔥

Straight funky!

What's insane is that I have an actual guitar (Godin xtsa) with a midi out. I want to control a guitar simulator with a real guitar.
