Sample edit and program edit is the most confusing part of the MPC. Nothing about the MPC is intuitive, but once you learn it, it's an amazing system. This video is great for beginers and intermediate users alike
I'm so thankful for this tutorial as well. I just picked up the MPC Key 37 which IS the MPC ONE+, with a keyboard. I've been all over the place looking for tutorials for the Key 37, but I was searching for wrong thing. Instead, I searched for MPC ONE+ tutorials and voila, however, this video was the most thoroughly explained one out there. It was explained in a very certain way that I could understand, as-well-as detailed. This guy definitely had a knack and is awesome at it.
I can appreciate how you don't get sidetracked into various aspects of the work flow. There are so many paths to get lost in with this device. If I learned anything, it's to stay in focus and try not to take it all on at once. There's so much here to learn.
You don´t have to wait until the loop finish playing if you push 2 times on the stop button. I learned so much with this video, this is the video i was looking for. Thank you for your kind way of teaching so good!!
New to the MPC world and just got an MPC One+ last week. Not knocking other tutorials out there because they are good. But you have a way of breaking things down to the amoeba in a concise way, which is what I needed. You helped me resolve an issue that was driving me crazy. Excellent teacher. I feel way more comfortable using it after watching this. You have a new follower. Appreciate you. 👊🏿
Dude, this video is so helpful. You've eloquently cleared up so many of the confusing parts of the MPC One. I had stopped using mine because I didn't get fluent with it fast enough, but I'm going to bust it back out and have another go. Thanks!
Don't have a mpc.....but like vidz.... tutorials and such. You are a Awesome Teacher....and Angel to somone struggling with it!!!!!....one more Subscriber for You!! 🍺👏👏
After struggling to get full productions using the SP404MK2, I finally bought the Key37. It really is everything I'd hoped and way more! I'm old enough to remember how much tech used to cost. These things are crazy powerful music production machines...and they are fairly affordable! Happy days!
MPC Pad Loop function Main page Track 01>Transpose set to 1. Program 001>Warp samples> Global tab>note on. Samples tab>pad loop on. For different drum loops, include them in the same mute group to alternate back and forth.
I finally understand non-destructive slices vs. pad parameters! In Ableton terms, it's sort of like keeping chops in Simpler vs. converting chops to a Drum Rack, respectively. Big help. Thanks!
Before I got my MPC my brother gave me the MPC 2 software. I used keys to pads to play the typing keys on my MacBook like 16 MPC pads . I say it was easy to figure out less than 10 minutes of me using MPC software for the first time in my life I put together drum patterns, instruments and had a beat from scratch going. Everything else was all down hill from there way easier than when I first use FL studios lol FL was 10x harder. MPC software everything is in your face if you have common sense and can read you can figure it out . When I got my MPC live 2 I already knew how to use it because it was like the software. The software is designed sort of like a digital MPC .
Dude, absolutely invaluable learning! Sincerely appreciate this - only got mine yesterday and now know how to use it thanks to you! .. a small tip, if you double tap the stop button it will cease any sample that’s still playing out. Love and respect, dubious engineering on UA-cam subbed!
Just got my mpc one today not had a chance to use it yet all dive in tomorrow. I was a circuit rhythm user but thought I'd upgrade to the mpc hopefully after watching tutorials I can navigate it easier
@@Schemez-16vhiphopbeatz check out MPC 3.0 dropping soon. It changes the workflow a lot and is probably easier to digest for newer users. I like this traditional way of working but we’ll see what 3.0 is like when it’s released 👍
Mate, this is such a good video. I bought a One+ about 6 months ago and have been on and off with it cos I found it quite confusing. This is a brilliant breakdown of the stuff you need to know and a clear explanation of the differences between sample edit/programme edit, tracks vs programmes etc. Would love to see more videos on the MPC on your channel, particularly as we move to 3.0.
Incredible!! Thanks for making this clear and concise. Just got an MPC ONE used and I am in love. I didn’t know about program edit/sample edit discrepancy before this video but this definitely clears things up!! Thank you 🙏
Hey followed the SP404 tutorial and now doing this MPC live one.. must say you are the best ! thank you for a great and a simple way of explaining this machine.. keep up the good work. really appreciate it.
Thank you sssoooo much for taking the time to show how to use this beast! I’ve had my MPC One for too long to be a shelf ornament! This video has inspired me to push on and make things happen! Top man - SUBSCRIBED! 😊
Extremely helpful video for beginners like me! Thank you so much! I noticed, that somewhere around the first third (I'm not quite sure where exactly) you happen to create en midi program to your track - by accident it seems. Right next you make sure to delete that program, because it was considered a mistake. I never thought it would be actually "created" and take up space by just swiching program type on the "sequence-bar"... Is that true or did I misunderstand? One other realted question: Is there a place to get an overview of the whole project and all that's included - in one view (very important!) Maybe in the MPC software on the PC...(?) Thanks again for sharing your greate knowledge and experience 🙂
I'm completely new to this game and still researching. I want a device where I can program "songs" drums mainly, but the facility to add a few bits would be a nice addition but far from essential. So far the only device I can find that has a "song mode" is the Alesis SR-18 but it seems quite primitive. Would this do it, is there something better or am I looking for something that doesn't exist?
@@InTheSmokeSection sadly no, I bought that app and at the time it was soo buggy it was practically useless. It may have been updated since but I actually requested my money back and got it. I’m just a bit wary of it. 🙂
@@eugenius1212 I don’t remember which one I was using but all the filth series are good for boom bap. You always get a lot of samples to play with. I think there are demo videos on the Drum Broker for each kit so you can get an idea of what’s included. They are all pretty similar though as he has his own sound. 👍
Is there a way I can send you my first ...14 bars of my 1st song (thata about as far as I get before I get another Idea for a song and start a new project. )
@@BjornBoswell I’m mad busy at the moment as I just became a dad but I plan on starting a discord soon for a monthly hang out. That would be a good way to send me music. I’ll let you know as soon as it’s set up. 👍
I wouldn’t say better I think they both have an easy time sampling and chopping. I think the MPC has a few more features because of its complexity with layers and it does some cool stuff with extending tails on sample chops etc. I’m firmly in love with my MPC but honestly if you’re good at sampling then the Maschine is great too. 👍
I think there are definite similarities but I would say the Maschine is easier to get going with. I actually love the MPC now I understand it but at first I wasn’t crazy about it. I would say the MPC feels more complex but also a little more capable. It sort of does everything and I definitely found a few limitations on the Maschine. Ultimately though it comes down to personal preference. If you’re thinking of buying I’d definitely recommend finding a local retailer and getting hands on with both before parting with any cash. My opinion is just from my experience and needs but you might want something totally different. 👍🙂
@@comparisonisthethiefofjoy9452 nothing major but the MPC just gives you more options. You can auto sample, easy to make samples mono which is an odd thing the Maschine doesn’t do. You can layer up to four samples each with their own effects and offset the sample layers to play at different times. It’s just a device that for everything I’ve needed so far it has delivered. I’m sure it has its flaws though. They all do. I totally love the Maschine too and the pads on those are definitely the best. 🙂
I came for 8:39 and 44:58 and 47:13. (I have movie quotes that I have to sit with for about 30 seconds, and it's so frustrating that's there's not an all stop button. )
@@BjornBoswell I don’t think there’s a wrong way. Just different ways and if you haven’t heard we are about to get the 3.0 update which changes the workflow drastically. It’s optional though if you want to continue using this workflow. I’m going to update when 3.0 arrives and see how I feel about it but it’s definitely a big change. 🙂
1:21 "lots of ways to do exactly the same thing". Like Photoshop! Or Logic. They add features for editing & have to keep the old ways for the legacy users! It gets busy after 30+ years. 😉 Don't forget your L audio in, or both, is half out!
This sounds very complicated just to get one drum pattern. During a performance I would need an extra person to control this device, that's not what we prefer. It sounds more like a sequencer than a real drum computer.
