    I get it, but not worthy of an upgrade if you already have an MPC (Live, Live2, One, One+, X). I do dig your channel, tho. I would get jacked if Akai could work in disk streaming into the MPC platform. (It's in the Force, which has the same processor). Right now, I'm putting longer stems on the 404-mk2, and triggering via midi.

    • @LiftedNoise

      That's one thing I was asking for before plugins where a things. Streamline and no load times for keygroups would of been nice. Even still with the lag you get switching through presets.

      @@LiftedNoise I'm into performing. I used to try to use Ableton to perform, but things were too complicated (and unreliable) and if you have a laptop in front of you, it is hard to engage with people and visa versa. I'm trying to figure out if my MPC Live is up to performing. I like the pads on the MPC, but in a live set environment, the context switching is a real downer and gets me out of the flow. For me, right now, its the SP and the Digitakt. Digi on drums, SP for stems (bass and melody). SP for hits. MPC goes back in the closet until it can play a 1hr long set. It has such potential, and damn I love the pads. Totally fine for beatmaking, but not quite up to snuff for the stage.

    Inspiring video 👍! I never tried to connect USB-B 2.0 plug to USB-B 3.0 socket😁, but it works! Would be nice to have the MPC Keys 37 as an audio interface in standalone mode too, like the Yamaha MOXF does, for instance. Thus no reason to change gear; I will stay with the MPC Live II und use 16 channels of Bluetooth midi to trigger VSTs within my PC, DAW or iOS devices. By using the 2 additional USB-A connectors, I can simultaneously connect 32 additional USB hardware devices like all the Waldorfs, Novations, Moogs, Dave Smiths, Arturias and Dreadboxes, even the good old Sequential Pro-One attends the setup through the CV ports of the MPC. So the MPC became the DAW for all DAWs, literally.

    Does anyone know?
    Can you use USB B of Key 37 to *output* the L/R audio of a sequence?
    Asking as my mixer (a Yamaha MG10XU) has a USB B 2input/2output that allows for monitoring signal while NOT sending that monitored signal to the stereo out (i.e. this allows monitoring MPC tracks while laying down vocals, guitar, bass etc thru mixer into MPC).

    That actually might seal the deal for me, sold my live 2 last year since I kept using my Force because of the quicker workflow. But I do miss having an MPC for those moments when I feel nostalgic about the MPC workflow regardless that it takes me longer to crank out a beat. At first the Keys 37 didn't seem like it was it, and I felt I had to sit this one out and wait for what's next, but this feature you highlighted makes a ton of sence with my setup and might push me over the edge. I'm gonna give it a few more weeks, but have to thank you for reporting this feature it's something that was sorely lacking in other models for me personally, that is.

      @@LiftedNoise it is usb a to usb b to the pc. I just didn’t want to spend $100 on an interface. My laptop doesn’t have an auxiliary import only headphone out. So it’s either the usb or buy the interface. I saw some plug ins that make it like an amp. But I think this goes back to interface. I also have a capture card and a usb c hub. So my other thought was I can just use garage band iPhone to this doc I have then to the capture card the to obs then stream on discord. The doc is meant for a steam deck but it has usb ports.

  • @Kevinjames0976
    @Kevinjames0976 7 місяців тому

    You can do this with the keys 61 ..but I believe your are right , it still needs to be in controller mode to work, and absolutely does not work in standalone. I am sure the 61 will get an update to allow this. It would be a huge miss for people who already have the 61 like myself. I have not really used controller mode until recently , and it’s extremely frustrating getting all of the midi mapping on logic to use in controller mode with synth multiple gear. You have to daisy chain your midi and then still use the usb to a AI to work with your computer, the 61 does allow audio and midi but lots of work around to get it to play nice .

    • @LiftedNoise

      Yea man in theory it should work with any DAW. It will recognize the mpc key 37 as a midi interface, you'll likely have to choose it within preferences. I can confirm what that process is with Reason. I don't have it but it's probably very easy.

    • @LiftedNoise
      @LiftedNoise  7 місяців тому

      I have the mpc live 2, and the only way I really use them together is by moving the SD card back and forth. I'll start a project on the live at work and then move the project over to the key 37 at home to work on it some more. The simplest way of syncing them together that I can think of is using a midi cable out from one into the other. I guess the benefit from this would be an increased amount of plugins you could run. Why do you want to connect them? What are you trying to do exactly?

    • @IdaPappy1
      @IdaPappy1 7 місяців тому

      I wanted to connect them to have more drum pad options and to use the keys as well, like 32 pads instead of 16, basically just having an increased amount, and my thought was exactly what you were saying was to connect it via midi cable, I was just wondering if one would cancel out some of its functionality, like for instance the keys would work on the 37 and not the drum pads when midi'd to the X. thanks for responding, I really appreciate it!
