You have no idea how You saved my life!😌🙏I worked at the MGM GRAND CASINO for 22 years and got the pink slip cause of covid!😌 ive been in a bad place since March 2020 and I knew I needed a new profesion😌 I love music and you helped me get there! So, thank you for all of your content to at least me learn a new profesion!
Sorry to hear that. Glad you are getting your new profession up and running!!!
That's great positivity. How does one earn from this?
hows it goin? bouta jump in too!
Congrats! I am trying to do the same, how did you make the change? Any advice for me? I have some good mics and a full mixing board with some XLR connections, I was going to grab this thing also and start recording again. I am a bit overwhelmed though and how to setup my stuff and how to get it all working together
A new subscriber here. I just bought the Mpk mini and was overwhelmed by the software. I like how you explained the creative process step by step. Please keep creating videos like this, every beginner will appreciate it!
Could be me saying that! I got my mpc a few days ago, really daunting but I'm determined to make it work. This video has changed my frustration and confusion to confidence and enthusiasm.
totally agree. the start is steep.
absolutely agreed. just got the mpk mini as well this past christmas and im in love with it but the software... whew talk about overwhelming for someone who has never had hands on experience in music production softwares. This makes it seem MILES simpler. Very excited!
As a DJ with no real intention of producing full length tracks this software is a gamechanger. I only really want to make 16bar loops and such to add personal flavour to my mixes.
THATS the only reason i bought all this stuff,music nowadays is pure garbage,im not hear to make money,just ride around listening to my own stuff
This was brilliant!
I'm mostly a guitar player and would do a lot of pc recording.
I just picked up one of these and you just inspired the hell out of me!
You got a new fan for life, MPC LIFE!
Your channel is an insanely great resource! I always walk away with that eureka moment where it just clicks. So appreciated!
nicely explained with a good and simple example. i will try this tonight. bought my mk3 last week. music is my hobby, learning myself,never went to any classes. off and on into music from 15 years age, now 61 yrs! thank you for the video,matthew.
This was my first purchase as of yesterday lol and you are definitely helping me get going. These are great basics and can't wait to try it out . I'll keep watching for sure. Thanks man
Awesome! Fun times ahead of you!
THANK YOU for a tutorial I could actually listen to. Felt like I was in a private lesson and I appreciate the pace you kept
Just got the MK3 and it's such a nice package with MPC. Just so much fun to make beats. There are also some free sounds, pads and stuff on the MPC forum!
A few people making tutorials, you are the ONE. Thank you so much!
Just got my MK3 today, watched your vid and did my very first project on my new toy. Looking forward to more, thanks for putting together a great tutorial!
Thanks for taking the time to make these videos, just got an mpk mini and am getting a lot out of these! Much appreciated!! You are awesome!
I got my mpk mini v3 a few days ago, really daunting but I'm determined to make it work. This video has changed my frustration and confusion to confidence and enthusiasm. Been really working hard with tracktion waveform, but the included daw seems much easier than waveform. This is so exciting for me! Been wanting to make my own beats my whole life. Thanks for taking the time to make this tutorial and keep them coming!
Right on! Keep the determination, you will figure it out. Thanks for the comment.
same here i couldn't figure out pretty much anything on the beats DAW and this really helped
For those of you encountering the issue where your pads are not playing the same chord notes in MPC Beats, try this:
Along the bottom bar in MPC Beats, press the 'MIDI Learn' button on the right-hand side which should pop out a new panel. Within that panel, on the Global tab press 'Enable' for the MPK mini 3. This worked for me after wracking my brain for hours!
I love you
😢thanks
Thank you!
@@thejacksloan Happy to have helped.
This worked for me . Thank you 🙏🏼
I was able to do so much more with this software by watching this video! Thanks!
Hey Matthew i just got MPK Mini a couple weeks ago and your videos have helped me out. I appreciate your videos
From helpful tutorial, to surprise 🔥🔥🔥. Please keep these coming. Finding them super helpful!
Thanks, will do!
Just wanted to add to the thanks, I got a MPK mini last week and have zero music experience (needed a lockdown hobby!) and your videos have been amazing in helping me get started.
Awesome! Glad you are getting up and running. :)
I really enjoyed watching this video Matthew and it helps me to better understand how to use this MPK mini MK3.

I really like how excited you get. Still don't fully understand this software like I do FL Studio, but thanks for the help. It's fun watching you be excited about the music lol
Great.Fundamental video to start using MPC Beats. Thanks a lot
Incredible video! Ive never seen a midi controller used before and I think this was such a great introduction.
Cool. MIDI controllers are useful and come in a variety of styles and sizes. Keep in mind they are controllers and usually do not contain sounds within them. Glad you liked the video.
You are the best! Greetings from Spain
Just picked up a mini and your videos are helping alot. thanks
Nice! Hope you are having fun!
This was an awesome tutorial and what you created turned out incredible imo, thanks for the video man! As a new MPK mini owner I was sorta lost as to how to get started but this helped a LOT!

Big thankyou for u man,u make me wanna back to this industy again...god bless u and family always...salam from sabah country...aramaitiiii
Me from the UK, you make some excellent videos which you make easy to understand. I used to produce Beats back in the 90's on my Atari computer, Akai 950 Sampler, so I am learning about all the amazing new technology for making music.
Love the triplets
im learning a lot, thanks.
Thank you for the amazing vid!
Thanks Matt, this helped a lot for my first time!
Thanks, Matt! Just picked up this little midi and ready to crank out some beats!
Awesome!!! Have fun!
You are the man like always!
Appreciate you.
You'r video is really insane bro thx
This pretty nice can’t wait to get my hands on Mpc studio 2
Made a couple of beats out of this video and i appreciate you for the knowledge shared. In fact i am pretty sastisfied i made them thanks to you but now that i have the beats i have enough material to make a song but i dont know how to separate the tracks to turn them into sequence and make a final arrangement. It would be very nice of you if you could share a video showing how to make a simple song arrangement. Thanks for the videos. Always coming here to learn from you.
Thank you so much for this great tutorial. I bought an Akai mpk mini 3 about a month ago and I am still learning how to use MPC beats. Your tutorial is a great help. I have a request when you have time if you can do a video on how to setup and work with Vocalizer Pro and Tal Vocoder 2 in MPC Beats. I am able to do it in Ableton but can't figuring the routing in MPC Beats. Thank you.
Newbie here not a clue untill watching your tutorial now getting a grip on atleast how to get started for now thanks!!!
Bro this was so helpful..THANKS!
Glad it helped! Thanks for the comment!
After watching this I can't wait for my MK3 to get here!!
Thank you so much for this video. Saved me so much time and frustration. Very much appreciated.
Cool little controller, Happy New Year Matt
There are a lot of cool features in this little unit. Happy New Year!
Fck yes this is exactly what I needed I’ve been lookin for a simple ass video to teach me how to use this program 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🙏🙏🙏
I'm a Native instruments user...But downloaded MPC beats for shh and giggles..I haven't used Native since..Dope Software 💪🏾
Right on. It is fun software to use, can be a fast workflow once you get used to it. I can be frustrating as well if you don't pay attention lol
I first learned stuff like this fromt the Ableton Live free trial and loved it, but the license expired and so I quit making music for a good 6 months. My dumb ass just realized there are programs like this that will do the job just fine! Thank you for reigniting my desire to make music!
Thank You man! For real
WOW! That was so good
Appreciate you.
Simple, clear demo! Thank you!
You're welcome!
hello
thank you matthew 🙏🏻
You're welcome 🙂
Great video!
Very helpful thanks. Keep the MPC Beats tutorial videos coming. If you can make one of how the AKAI mpk3 mini is configured for MPC beats or Pro Tools that would be your most viewed video, believe me.
yo bro . Real
ly good video , just purchased akai mini and keylabb 88 ... dont have the time always to learn everthing myself ... so Thanks :)
Getting my mpk mini on Saturday can't wait to start making beats
Nice. Have fun with it!
Nice vid Bro.. 💯💯😎😎Your workflow is so consistent.. I can see that I have to practice more consistently to get my beats on par.. Oh Snap.. throwback to the 80's huh??! 🤣😂
Yeah. Having a workflow helps production time. It takes some time to figure out. Yeah, sometimes I show my age when I get excited 😆 🤣🤣
I bought a Live 2 in summer but didnt had time to use it alot, thanks for sharing this
Right on. MPC Live is a great music making machine!
Finally! thank you so much!
You're welcome.
Please keep creating videos like this. We are expecting
hi man, im from Brazil, thank u so much for this video. this save me!

Thanks bro helped out alot
Glad to hear it
Nice, well done.
that dope ponytail was the final factor in getting me to hit the 'sub'
When you make a fire beat past what you expected to be lol man love your channel that harp though crisp aha
Hi
I just want to say thanks, from this instructional video I was able to create my 1st piece of music..
That’s amazing! So happy to hear it!
totally inspiring ! thank you man
You’re welcome 😊
If your Drum Pads doesn't play the chords and you might not know yet: Go to the upper left and click: Edit. Go to preferences and choose Midi/Sync. When you have the Mpk Mini 3 then check if CONTROL is also chosen. It should be highlighted in white. Press OK on the lower right side. Should be working now.
not worked( help plz
Thank you. That's precisely what I was looking to fix.
Amaizing !!!!!!!
Thank you Matthew ! i ve got the black version of the MK3 and i love it .MPC Beats is great too .What about doing a tech-house track with MPC Beats ? Happy New Year !
