New to your channel. Just ordered a key61 and starting to get my learn on... ;) Stumbled across your channel and REALLY enjoy the content/format of your vids. Nice work :) Only played keys before, but catching the MPC bug now.
Dope. Very informative 👏.
Glad to help
🔥🔥🔥🌊🌊 yes zirrrrrr
🙏🏽 much appreciated
Just ordered all your kits and expansions.
The all kits bundle has only the kits before it. You will notice the new ones after were not made yet. So to have them all you will have to purchase the new ones separately. Just look at the list. Alot before and just a few after. Everything before is inside. The few after are not.
Very smooth and laid back. Lovin it. Keep doin ya thang pimp

Nice job I have the mpc live I’m trying to work like this
Thanks 🙏🏽 if you need help we offer live video help sessions my website has all the details.
I can't wait to get mine in December
Cool 👍 I'm sure you will enjoy it.
@@DaDrankKang Thank you i had the mpc studio but i'm looking to go bigger this time around
Thanks for this....im a dope sample producer but I need to work on the keys in order to hit my peak w production. This helps.
Dope track you made on the fly, I learned the proper way to time stretch samples in my mpcx from watching your video tutorial. Now I tuned in and saw this vid, on using the pads to play chords and melodies..I know a little theory,but can't play at all, as I should after the history I've had. But after this tutorial I'm gonna "level up" my skill set..THANK YOU AGAIN BROTHER,KEEP COMING WITH THE TUTORIAL OFFERINGS YO..BLESS.
Much thanks. Glad to help out 🙏🏾
U a beast im learning allot thanks fam dj 44 from h town
I also use mpc but im still learning
yo thats a sick beat put it out
ahhhh. Dungeon Family...
I got Akai mpk261 and I use mpc beats. When I turn on the 16 level it doesn't work on the pads, instead it plays in velocity even though it's set to "tune" in the DAW, but the 16 level works just right with the mouse! The pads are enabled in both the "midi learn" and "midi/sync" menus.
Any help is appreciated..
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
🙏🏽 💯
Hope you can help. I was chopping loops in the mpc software. I was using the oad functions of play loop to end play from start etc. Now when i move the start or end sliders they drag through the sample playing the waves in the sound. Thry do not smoothly and quietly go through the sound. They are playing the audio as i drag them. Do you have any clue as to what i have turned on causing this. Thanks for your time.
If you are chopping samples you don't need to use any loop feature. You need the sample edit page where you slice your samples. That's it. No need to make things difficult for an easy job.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾
Thanks for the vid, how do you change the start button to instant play, because mine is still ticking till 4 and starts then.
You dont change the start button. The ticking sound is the metronome. You can turn that off and on so it does not count you in. It is located at the top of the page to the left of the bpm. You will see the icon just put your mouse arrow over it and it will give you the name "metronome" click there. 👍🏾
@@DaDrankKang Thanks!! Keep the video's coming love them! One
Nice work ! I am struggling with the PADa ercord as it takes others octaves than what i play...no one know if there is a note range setting or so ?? helll
Thanks! If you are using a VST the maker of the vst will only allow a certain set of octaves for the preset. In pad perform change the octaves using the + and - on the mpc screen. If you are using key groups then use the pad banks ABCD etc.
@@DaDrankKang thx Boss , yeah o am using a vst...well spotted ! I don't get it ...I don't want to change octave , I want it to record what I play...strange stuff
Germany loves
Much thanks 🙏🏾
I’m just looking for the button you press that turn’s hitting one pad into a chord. I forgot how to do it. It’s easy as hell. Just a tap of one button but for the life of me I can’t remember.
Fire tutorial! Got a lot of great tips! Can you do a video on how you connect your MPCX to your software ?
Install the software follow all the instructions and connect your MPC via USB when it tells you to. DONE... no need for a video. Just use common sense. 👍🏾
The software will tell you everything to do.
Damn ...Smh
You want him to make the Music/Beats for you too
🤣
@@DaDrankKang WELL THANKS
Is the chord mode available in stand alone or you have to use the software to access it?
Pad perform works with software VSTs. Standalone is no software.
@@DaDrankKang That is a bummer for me definitely. Now my mind is definitely made up. I will be getting the Akai Force, which is standalone with chord mode.
@@femmy820 You can still use pad perform on stand alone units.
I can’t play that pad perform for shit.that pissed me off oneday. I went upstairs and brought down my Mofit Keyboard 🎹 and had my shit done in 3min. Good it work for you. I gotta get my tracks done.
It was hard for me also. I just don't like to be defeated by my own mind. So like everything in life ... I figured it out. 👍
Da Drank Kang yea. I’m going to do the same. Oh I’m going to figure it out when I get some free time. Hey but you have a nice set up. I’m remodeling my studio so I can’t really do to much right now.
Do you have any issues with them overlapping. Let me clarify, beginning stage question lol?
more specific ??
Da Drank Kang chord progressions in pad performance mode,
@@michaelburks7928 if you are familiar with how piano chords work some of them are supposed to overlap depending on the feel you want. No issues 👍🏾
How do you turn off pad perform?
So your saying I can use pad perform with my samples ?
Hey what up, I see you are using a plug in to play the chords in this video, how would you do it with just an internal sample?
I'm not using a plugin to play Chords. The plungin is for the instrument. Im using It's PAD PERFORM Mode on the mpc as the video said it puts the mpc in chords for you. 👍🏾
Da Drank Kang ok, when I press pad perform the pads play each sample in the program like normal, not one specifically and doesn’t play in chords. Not sure what step I’m missing here.
@@steveweigand8991 pad perform is not for samples. It's for vst instruments. If you are playing samples then you are not in pad perform. If you want to learn more about this I suggest you take advantage of my video help sessions. Link is in my recent videos. It is for this specific purpose. 👍🏾
Da Drank Kang got it. Ok I’ll look into the sessions. Appreciate the help.
HOOOOOWWWWW do you get to pad perform from the software???????
The name of the option is PAD perform... you cant access it without PADS. There is a reason why it's accessed through the hardware. Alot of the features would not work without the actual MPC machine. 👍🏾
DO A TORY LANEZ CHIXTAPE SAMPLE TYPE BEAT!!! PLZ
You should check out thecyclekit.com Masada does really good midi progressions for the MPC!
Keep up the content!
Thanks 👍
how do you erase a sample out of the sample pool in Standalone mode on a 2.0 software in the MPC live thank you so much genius
I don't use the mpc x in standalone mode as you can tell from my videos. Didn't spend that much money to use standalone. I have older MPCs for that. 👍
My mpc is triggering sounds automatically when in pad performance mode why is that?
I dont know. We make beats here. If you have issues like that you may want to ask Akai. They have a help service online.
@@DaDrankKang Sorry for asking. I'm not a noob when it comes to the Mpc, or this channel I've even helped support your channel by purchasing some of your sound packs. I never used pad performer before, and I experienced this issue while watching your tutorial, so I thought I missed something. I fixed it must of been a glitch. Thanks for responding. I must say that's an easy way to lose a loyal sub with a response like that. Was a very degrading response. Akai has a help line. ( a shitty one at that) Really.
@@MIDAZSITH very sorry if you can't take truth. Sometimes truth is not liked. My "loyal subs" know that about me. If I can not answer you then I will send you to the best place. I help over 5k people make music not fix their MPCs. I've delivered tremendous content to the Producer community in this regard. I can not help much with technical issues. If you can not understand that then this is not the channel for you my man. 👍🏾
@@DaDrankKang Not a big deal to me im not butt hurt. I didnt ask you to fix my mpc. I asked you a question in regards to pad performer if I recall correctly. I didnt say hey i have a knob falling off or my mpc wont start. I thought maybe i didnt press something on the screen etc.I fixed it problem solved. I like your content enjoy your day.
Thanks for understanding. If you have any music related questions I will do my best to help you. If you have any technical issues. I am not the best source for that. Your issue is not about pad performance it is a TECHNICAL issue with pad performance Akai will solve that in no time. Respect blessings. 💯
Whoever thumbs down this video is going to Hell
Some people dont appreciate FREE information. Can't please everyone 👍
I might be spending some $
👍🏾 💯
you never showed how to match the key of your 808 in pad perform. ;)
Find any VST that allows custom presets. Create your 808 samples load them in the VST of your choice. Load the VST on a track and rock out 👍 object is to let the vst do the work. You just need to know how to make 808 presets. I use about 5 different VSTs with my own custom 808 samples. You can find the samples on my website.
@@DaDrankKang I don't own a pc only mpc live.
@@djdpe if you look at my channel I work with a computer. Your question may be more suited for someone who works like you do.
this makes no sense....really......why not just play a keyboard? I mean, at least in the process you may learn to play, learn chord structure, etc.....some sort of theory.
you must be new to my channel my man i play keys for a living ... i also teach how to use the mpc... what "makes no sense" is someone telling someone else how to make their music.... smh... this is a feature in the mpc.... forgive me if i want people to know about it... we are making music dude... we arent curing cancer... chillax 👍
@@DaDrankKanghahaaaaaaa.. got eeemmm!!!🤣💀.. gud clap back my boy🔥🔥💪🏾💯
