You just taught a masterclass. I’ve never understood why people complain so much about the new MPCs and what’s already built into them. If you’re a good musician you can make good music with whatever you have. The ear is more important than the gear.
Do you teach a class on anything like an MPC key 61 I just bought it and I don’t know it very well but I would love for somebody to help me out with this. Thank you for your time and great comment. By the way I’m along with you people get gear and don’t understand it and then sell it instead of trying to find good people like you who can show people how to do it.
@@lamarcraven2314Nah man I don’t lol! Sorry I just saw your comment. I’m still a student myself when it comes to the MPC. I just bought my X last year, I’ve been a longtime Maschine user. So there’s still a lot I’m learning switching over to the MPC world! Plus I don’t have the Key 61! I bet there’s gotta somebody on here who can teach you everything about it though.
@@trackmusic252 Maybe. Maybe not. Plenty of legendary albums were recorded with only four tracks, with just volume, panning, maybe some EQ and compression and that’s about it. Without good musicianship and songwriting it doesn’t matter how much more we have. But it’s definitely good to have options though 👍🏾
@@thahomie773I have a tip as a beat maker. I have way more “throw aways” than I do “keepers”. Don’t let it discourage you. you will see and hear your own milestones so keep pushing and enjoy the process.
I have every plugin for the MPC except Jura and they’re all fire. I’m still finding ways to take those presets and turn them into something I never would’ve imagined. Pair up your MPC with an MPK Mini Plus and you have one of the most powerful beat making hardware combos.
@@skylerdarkavelifinesseflow7115 they all vary but I caught a sale and got like 70% off the MPC instrument Collection bundle. It’s worth the price though. There’s something like 5,000-6,000 presets just in that collection alone which includes Fabric and Fabric XL and like 4 other synths. I’d get them. They are amazing.
You are good at your tool! You mastered the MPC and know the ins and outs. You make best use of your instrument, mastered it in standalone. Ive had the MPC Live II since 2017 and you are hands down the best at teaching it in a way everybody understands.
Im glad u said it. Everytime i say the mpc a complete machines plugins and effects and they dont need 3rd party like that.. people go cross eyed and wondering how? They kinda tell on themselves that they dont spend much time on their machine.. dont turn knobs.. nothing.. but to make those presets. Somebody turned a knob for the user experience.
Right even thou I was using my mpc live 2 I realized im not fully using the machine without turning all the knobs on each plug in to learn adjusting and using effects to get and now experience every time
@scarthereddoninfinity6100 bro we so trained to preset.. we don't realize we set the table. Once u get a handle on what's what.. shit gets crazy.. I never really go outside except to get samples.
was just having this conversation. And agree. The MPC plugins don't suck,but one shouldn't expect them to sound like Ominsphere when Akai just got into the plugin synth game when the MPC Renneisance dropped in 2012. Give em time to get adjusted to the plugin world. Now,in our opinion yes them making new synths like JURA is cool,but to speed up the process maybe in the near future they should include the vintage AIR synth plugins for standalone users. That would be EPIC !!
u can make ur own omni sounds. omnisphere is just samples layered on top of each other. physical modeling bell + sample bell + fm synth bell = omnisphere it all in the layering
The stock plugins in my opinion tend to be great if you know what they are about. Starting out I avoided them but doing a quick background research on like the Mellotron made me better at using it. I thought it was just a fake piano plugin but that was just judging a book by its cover. The mellotron is a lofi tape sound beast of a machine!
Thank you for this! People think they need 3rd party this 3rd party that, the most expensive plug-ins ect. But don't take the time to mess with what is already available. Alot of daws have pretty good stock plugins and effects. Hype and tube synth are exceptionally well and are my favorite stock plugins on the mpc. I like that the effect plugins force you to use your ear on the mpc
Also, keep these MPC vids coming homie. You’re goated on here with it and you explain things so well that even someone who never touched one could learn enough to start mastering it. 💪🏼💪🏼
I love this title. Im a new MPC user and I was like wtf I can’t get anything good out of these plugins, but I know they must work somehow if I just knew more about using them
I only have the 8 free plug ins because the paid ones rape the memory im not fused about them iv got 4 hardwear synths and 3 keyboard so iv got plenty sounds
Nice!!! That’s exactly how i do it. I did learn something new tho. The shift shortcuts are clutch. Also knowing lil bit of music theory goes a long way
The stock plugins are nice and very doable for making a full song. I especially love the hype sounds. But to be honest, I do feel just a little limited when using my MPC in standalone mode. There are key sounds that I like to use a lot between the NI, Rolandcloud, and Auturia plugins that the MPC doesn't have. As a solution, I have been sampling those sounds into my MPC storage to help with my creativity and alleviate the need to buy expansions.
Dope video and I agree!!!! Also to add to your point, these are synths so you can design your own sounds!!!!…. But when you go into the “edit instrument” tab there’s no back button. Kinda annoying, but synths are for designing sound. Learn oscillators, filters, lfos, and envelopes. Buy a synth cookbook to get started if you need to. Presets can be used of course but consider them templates and go in and tweak those sounds!!!
hi, I'm glad to have found your youtube channel I want to use an MPC now, I'm a fl studio user but how can I use my vst like omnisphere, heat up 3, serum with an MPC? please ? I don't really understand the system
Yes I agree. These plug ins very dope , people just have to handle them like synths , and then is sky the limit . I was so suprised by the tubesynth it is a powerful synth , I use it most. But i found a really bad bug in oddisey , sometimes when I play a note it doesnt stop , its endless . Then i have to delete the plug in. Its a shame because oddisey sounds so dope . But I hope akai will fix it . Peace and you are sharing very dope content ❤✌️👋 Sorry for my english
Mpc Master Guru! ❤ I definitely believe it's the person, not what you have. I've seen guys who have it all and the beats are 🗑 🚮 and guys who have 1 keyboard or just a drum machine are making straight bangers!
it has never been there gear. its always the user. someone with talent can make good shit with anything. and those without constantly look for "that gear" that will help them make music...I know from personal experience. good vid 👍🏾
If u can't make beats with stock sounds, then u haven't reached ur peak yet.. I'm not gonna bash anybody.. spend a month with just the stock sounds and see how good u can get.. u'll be amazed how much more u learn wat ur machine do.. and that goes for ANY machine and brand on the market.
MPC plugins do suck in comparison to what's available on any DAW, but still: a good producer can use them to make something great. It's not a problem: an MPC is just not made for the same type of work. MPC is just undefeatable when it comes to getting the essence of musics such as hip-hop. Having less is what made this music emerge in the first place. Sometimes whan you have countless plugins and VST instruments, you end up doing nothing because of too many possibilities.
Great flow. BTW in MPC 3 Chord Progressions have more options, Godly is now Gospel 11. That Tube preset though, Chord Tri, when used with Chords, produces a digital 'click' when each note is tapped (especially in quick succession), it's not always noticeable, but annoying. I've found many presets have this, including those for the paid Jura. Just when I think I've found a good preset, I find it clicks!!, a digital issue - not only of the attack (something else) ...and with Chord Tri that has a delay enabled that click propagates!, I wish Akai could sort this out! ...I hear the click in your demo (just), most noticeable when you hit PAD 4 just after here… ua-cam.com/video/HO_QLHRIQAg/v-deo.htmlsi=EKmjaBKT0fUO6uWd&t=148 which is fine when a slow melody falls back behind forward drums, but as a forward fast melody, click click. Anyway, I look forward to more of your vids on MPC3!
Listen akai... We just mad that you won't drop these damn stems in standalone... And we want our third party plug-ins. We paid for them(some of us lol) and we should be able to use them in standalone. Figure the shit out man. I live 5 minutes away from headquarters... Don't make me come down there....

💯! The level of technology in a new MPC is crazy. Coming from the 60, and 2000xl gen. The new shit is waaaaay to easy! @akaipro is killing it!
Man why this dude don't have millions of views he's the truth foreal salute 💯
He's definitely the elite of the elite MPC & production UA-camrs.
Him and MALO. I’ve learned a ton from both of them and surprised both aren’t massive channels.
cos of TUBEDIGGA maybe ? who's MPC videos rule , really.
Yea this dude is the truth fa real real
The mpc air analog delay sync is my go to
Great mind in a soul flow

Agreed, great combo. Jura is cool, I own a Juno 60 so I gravitated towards that sound immediately.
I agree own the X and have all the plugins .. it's a must to pick up jura and the expansion packs for it...
Dude get jura too!! U will love it.
How much are these plugins cause all I got are stock plug ins and have had them for like 4 yrs 🤷🏿

Hell yeah! I got the Akai force, which was made for edm styles but I have made what I call vibe Drill!
anything possible with the mind
Air music tech is dope!
Sound selection is so important - your thinking is totally on point man.
That said… It’s a sampler - we should be filling the thing with found sounds - get your phone and a drumstick and hit some shit!

They kinda tell on themselves that they dont spend much time on their machine.. dont turn knobs.. nothing.. but to make those presets. Somebody turned a knob for the user experience.
most producers have big gaps in there learning and not humble enough to admit what they dont know

this is amazing, i was getting kind of frustrated because i didnt realize how much more i could do with the mpc one! thank you!
thanks for tuning in bro
🔥🔥🔥MPC users needed to see this. Bro your a gem to those who dont understand these things. Jewel after jewel. Their stock and AIR plugins are🔥!
Experienced MPC users already know this. It’s the newbies or those migrating from DAWs who don’t.
Just shows a huge knowledge gap 🫤
@@blkgostnone4092 It's why I said "to those who don't understand these things"

Are those progressions stock on mpc? All I have is major, minor and so simple
yes they are bro make sure your on chords and then rewatched the video again
Yes I agree.
These plug ins very dope , people just have to handle them like synths , and then is sky the limit .
I was so suprised by the tubesynth it is a powerful synth , I use it most.
But i found a really bad bug in oddisey , sometimes when I play a note it doesnt stop , its endless .
Then i have to delete the plug in.
Its a shame because oddisey sounds so dope .
But I hope akai will fix it .
