But i cant load Hybrid 3, Mini Grand or Velvet into MPC Beats even tho i have them installed and can use them outside the program... anyone know what i need to do?
I hope you've already fixed it. I had the similar experience on Mac - Apple silicon. In my case, running MPC with Rosetta 2 fixed the issue. (Rosetta 2 enables a Mac with Apple silicon to use apps built for a Mac with an Intel processor.)

@@herpallday1284 AHHAH I am kind of getting the basics but, there are holes in what I know, which only serves to screew me up.. Its hrs and hrs at it. but its a very powerful system you get it I think.
The MPK Mini 3 I got came with the F9 expansion and Air Mini Grand and Velvet and all that good stuff. For the life of me I can't figure out how to get the Mini Grand into MPC Beats as a plug in. They should be compatible, right?
Yes. Be sure to scan your plugins directory so Mini Grand can appear as an available AU/VST plugin instrument. Contact our support team for more assistance at akaipro.com/support
Hi! When installing a Drums Plugin, by default it has a ‘Keyboard’ setup (it shows the midi keys), and the pads get messed up when ‘Chords’ are selected. Is there a way for a plugin to have a ‘Drums’ configuration, so it doesn’t mess up the pads with the chords?
so, I did everything as you sad here, but when I played my midi there was no sound on my laptop, like its not plugged. its connected to the laptop but no response in the MPC
mannnn, thank you verry much for this tutor, i was goin to throw away may oxygen pro 61. but is kinda frustrating handeling them. i Hope you continue making vid for MPC Beats
Will you please share Us how to program Mpk mini mk3 in mpc beat software, from beginning to end, we are facing some troubleshoot while using it..... Request from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳
Hello Good Vids thx. So, can u tell me where i can find the touch strip "effect" in MPC beats software. In fact, i want to put one or several tracks in bass frequencies as I would do if i use the touch strip, you can find on mpc controller like the new mpc 61 key. THX U so much. Cheers
*I am looking for a tutorial of using MPC Beats as a Plugin itself. I am using Magix Music Maker, everything works great together, but all I can do ATM is play the sequence in MPC sequence within MPC by clicking play in Magix. I need to know how to export that sequence as audio directly into the assigned track.* I get it, I can just export from MPC and drag the beat exports into Magix as needed, but the purpose is to have a single DAW open, apply the beat from MPC as a plugin into the audio track of Magix, and I don't have to have folders open, both apps fully opened etc.

hi THANKS FOR THE GREAT VIDEOS!!!!!! I HAVE A QUESTION IS IT POSSIBLE TO DOWNLOAD VST INSTRUMENTS IN TO YOUR MPC ONE FROM MY MAC BIG SUR COMPUTER WITHOUT THE SOFTWARE MPC BEATS???????? BECAUSE I HAVE A NEW MAC BIG SUR COMPUTER AND FOR SOME REASON I CAN NOT GET DOWNLOAD MY MPC ONE SOFTWARE THANKS FOR YOUR HELP AND REPLY AND ADVICE BEST REGARDS MIKE
my keys still do not give me and OUTput, I get an Input signal but when i load up a plugin for my keys it still does not give and output, but the pads work.
Thanks for the video! I'm very new to this stuff and I have a related question if I may. Can I use different types of TubeSynth (for instance) on different tracks? I experienced that if I change the TubeSynth type on Track 4, it also changes on Track 3...
All this is nice, but how can you create multiple instances of a plugin with different presets? It seems so counter intuitive that you can have multiple instances but as soon as you alter one, it alters all of them simultaneously.
for some strange reason it does not see my Xpand2 plugin ,but it sees my hybrid 3 pugin which from the same company those two plugins are the only ones i use for all my sounds
Hi, I have this Error after the last upgrade: "MPC beats project is missing plug-in files. Compressor bus". Can you help me? I can't use my old project
It is quite easy to use plugins, it's easier still to see someone do it first!. A lot of plugins will ask for the plugin directory, it should be C:\Program Files\Steinberg\vstplugins or something similar. Best thing is to just load the 64 bit VST (if you have a 64 bit modern PC) then you go to the menus, select edit > preferences.> plugins and you will see where the directories are, you can then select rescan all. When you make a track, click on the "plug" icon and you will get a list pop up with all the plugins you have. Sometimes you have to fiddle around with directories to put your presets or instruments for the plugin. It is frustrating at times, but that is how you load plugins. To get the plugins to display, you will need to be in program edit mode to have them display n the same screen. Just keep messing about and hover over buttons to see what they do, keep all your downloads and installers, if you completely screw it up, you can just do a clean re-install. I have searched for a book that explains all this, but haven't found one, might have to write it myself!
@@totc6196 Sorry, I dont know how to fix your problem. Do u got any software for your ipd8? Maybe u can change settings there. But if u mean when you have some drums recorded, theres an option to change velocity maybe thats it?
I'm losing my mind over here. I can make drums and play them with my Akai and I can also play instruments on the piano roll but I cannot for the life of me do both. I also have no access to the top left menu no matter what I do and there's no explanation as to where I can access those options within the program. Please can someone please help me so I can just making a song. I'm going crazy here and I'm about to just sell my Akai and delete the program and go back to making music with a keyboard and microphone.
