I upgraded from the MPC ONE to the MPC X SE, I got it Saturday. I have been one it nonstop. I love everything about the MPC X SE. The full amount of Q-Links and Buttons and size is just game changing. For me this is the best MPC. I put mine right in the center of my studio. I got mine from ZZOUND.
You have a new follower. i don't ever hear anyone talk about my beloved Ensoniq... I had the ASR-Rack, my cousin had the TS-12 together we were Voltron!!! I do want this MPC X se!!!!
looks just like The Renaissance in my opinion. i still use mines. and i have a SP1200, mpc 3000 mpc 2500 , mpc live 2 retro and still use the Ren the most
If I didn't have my X, I'd get one SE. I'm on the X daily. I don't even play on the keys to create Melodie's anymore, I use the mpc pads and I feel I like what I come up with and I don't even care what key I'm in. It's all about feel and if the feel sounds and feels good. I like that experience 😊
I don't need the MPC X SE but I want it anyway because it's beautiful and it has everything built in and all the sound that i will ever need and this machine is ready for MPC software 3.0, hopefully coming soon.
Stop consuming. Start producing. Poor little boys in a Africa can make a hot beat with scrap and you just bought another Akai MPC because it's "beautiful". Akai got you in the buying-mood once again.
As an X user, stand-alone, it’s a dream come true. I’ve had the plug ins since they became available, if you haven’t invested in the instruments, you’re missing out on an entire library of killer sounds.
@@dennishunter5552 People buy a lot of things based off aesthetics it doesn't make their decision wrong. We all have WANTS. When I started producing over 10 years ago I "WANTED" a bigger studio filled with my dream analog synths, did I NEED IT? No, because I was able to make a living with my corner studio but when the opportunity presented itself I got it.
@@theproducerlife You just said it yourself. You were able to make a living with that small studio and now it's time for an upgrade. I understand that. However, do you know how many so called "producers" own at least one Akai mpc and don't make a living. But they have the Akai MPC X or the Live 2, the Force or all three of them and now they want the Akai MPC XL. I don't see any point of it. They're collecting more Akai MPC workstations than they make beats. Seriously. You wait years for a machine with the same workflow like 35 years ago and because it has a nice color, more ram and sound you want to spend over 2000 dollars. This is called a-negro-must-have-it-syndrome and Akai knows it. I hope native instruments or Roland will step in real quick and release something special. Linear sequencing to begin with.
@@dennishunter5552yo it is his money. If he want to buy all the mpc its his life fam. Everyone have his problem. Maybe for him money its not a problem. Let him enjoy
MARCUS!! Good to see you my friend! I am a little underwhelmed with the new MPC X SE. I mean - I still see a few of the older units for $1700 probably a better bet...I am glad you are happy with your purchase though. My personal favorite the the Key 61 (which I do have) and if they upgrade the Force I will probably be on that, and depending if they upgrade the ONE to 4GB and 32GB built in I might take the plunge there. I really like the format of the one.
Just about died laughing at the Force - wife comparison😂 then you say “I ain’t it love with the X, it’s like a sister-wife and I just about died laughing again😂😂😂😂😂 Probably the greatest joke of all time made by you, and clears up a lot. Waaay too funny😂
The MPC X is pretty much king at the moment... you will get that familiarity with it real quick... so many different ways to get your work flow going...
I’ma get it in a week after my closing and I can’t wait !😭 I miss having a MPC; I only use Maschine + BUT with no updates; It’s time to upgrade. Amazing video Elbow! ✊🏾
That’s what’s up TD! Do me solid an use my link when you get this bad boy, it helps support the channel. Thanks bro bro! www.zzounds.com/a--3973922/item--AKAMPCXSE
I’m not sure SH 🤔 I don’t own a 1000 bro. But if I had to guess I would say no. I tried bring the MPC live files over and that didn’t work like it should have
The only thing I hate about my MPC X is that you CAN'T press the main encoder...I really wish they made that change for the SE...still probably getting the SE tho lmao
Bro I have the MPC 5000. Can you please do a comparison on this. I realize you are for ahead but what happened to use what you have to it's fullest. WHAT Am I missing out on please? Thanks!
The 5000 is the grandfather to the X, what your missing are plugins, big color touchscreen & improved work flow. If you good on the 5k then just use that
@@chosenonebeats Yes so would it be a benefit to jump on board or stay at bay where I am. I also have the mpc renaissance as well. I try not to bog my head on what's new and poppin, However
You're going to be sorry about that SE in a few month the real release will be MPC 3.0 with linear record screen. Akai has to do it the MV is still years ahead of Akai and that's a fact 20 years later
What ever happened to caring about sonics??the sound??even when Andy Mac was with Jermaine Dupri on this new machine JD still told him the Mpc 3000 was the one..that’s due to its converters the sonics..they put a vintage face plate on it stuffed some sounds but the sonics aren’t there out of the box..I took it back.and the owner of Newmark did Roger Linn dirty!!look at his video..I was hoping one of you guys being content creators would be honest about it for the culture..they sell “workflow” instead of sound..that’s what music is about..that’s why people “listen” to music not for “workflow”..yes it’s “pretty” but what good is that whenever u gotta do so much processing to get it to “sound” warm and thick..so I bought Isla instruments S2400 sounds wayyyyy better!!!like a drum machine sampler is supposed to.and I have the key 61 and force..I feed sounds through the S2400.all I have to say is check out E-A Ski video the best review I’ve herd..but I rock with your channel im a new subscriber..but remember the sound and culture brother
@@polabear7921 You seem to know a lot about sound. Remember lots of products in existence today resulted from individuals not getting what they were looking for so they created their own maybe you should team up with the Almighty E-A Ski and do something for the culture and create your own MPC Killer. You depend on the White Man and complain when your wants and needs are not met. What are you doing about it?

Similar but not the same and certainly doesn’t feel the same in your hands

I feel the same way homie
Me too.. I only had my X for a year. Im not interested in the SE unless they send it free lol
Same

I hear that!
I love the Force, not sure what they could do to improve the hardware for a mk2

Always Shave Bro Bro.....we can wait....we here !

I was thinking about buying the Akai MPC X SE. But my intuition told me go with the MPC Key 61.
Good brother, is there a way to perform the tape stop, stutter edit etc efx the same way you can in the Force?
Yes sir! You can assign it to the q-links if I’m not mistaking 🤔
May the Force be with you 😂😂😂
🤣😂😅 she is bro! She is….
Good day Marcus. Is there a way to take MPC 1000 files to the force? Your answer would be greatly appreciated.
I’m not sure SH 🤔 I don’t own a 1000 bro. But if I had to guess I would say no. I tried bring the MPC live files over and that didn’t work like it should have
