Bolo I usually don't do this but bro! I really appreciate this video because these kids really need to know this. This is GREAT information!! I've been doing music for a min and been in the game for a long time and this is the same info that I give to others. So thank you bro
Bolo you’re building the community the right way. I’m doing the same with my caregiving company right now. Can’t wait to produce in my future. Sound is my passion. Love your content and hope to work together someday as well
My pops told me bout Fruity Loops in 99, didn’t listen. Mechanics told me bout Reasons in 2005, didn’t listen. Popsycle (R.I.p.) told me bout Reasons in 2008, listened. Life changing 💯🔊🔊🔊🔊
The industry (or any) always HAS PPL THAT MEET YOU AND THINK IF YOUR A GOOD GUY, your soft. Or prime to be manipulated into being scammed out of money or anything really. Also record everything while ur in the booth, never know what may catch on or become a stable or brand etc. Bolo is a vet and been thru it this is luv to get this info.
Thanks for this. I'm gonna look for that book. I need that. I also wanna say that each one of those students should subscribe to your channel. You've given out game like that quite frequently.
For yall that don't know Cakewalk is still it. Complete DAW with over 35 years of development. Fully supported and runs every VST worth using. It gets the job done with no excuses.
@@BeatzByDuvv Cakewalk has already implemented that functionality. You can open Cakewalk and then open the MPC2 software directly from inside Cakewalk as a VST Instrument. Complete access to all your controllers and sound packs along with the ability to use it with any other VSTs you may want to use in your song. Like I said before, Cakewalk gets it done with no excuses.
Thanks alot @BoloDaProducer for the breakdown and storytlling.....I really look at workflow and music industry knowledge with more of a better understanding
Dope experience. To experience alot of what is being said in this video. And sea the come up go down. And not come up and just be stationary. Nothing moving. I can say my sound has changed alot since I 1st started. Having mi 2nd guess how far do I still wanna continue. To be continue...
Cakewalk was where I first started. And the ASR x . I remember the poor man's copyright by mailing a tape or cd to yourself but not opening the mail. I actually started on the turntables scratching OutKast music. Oh yea latency was a real thing back then.
Midi clocking has not changed much and that is sad. Alot of us don't use it the same way thou so thank goodness. I record all my parts into the force and construct everything in the machine. I transfer stuff to ableton to finish it out. I would never try to sync my synths up it's still like the Flintstones with midi clocking. All this time has passed and nothing has been done to fix the clocking... sad.
If you having MIDI clock problems get a second set of eyes on what you are trying to hook up. MIDI clock sync is rock solid and has been for a long time. Every problem people have with MIDI clock sync is from trying to chain or loop something the wrong way. Several MIDI hubs and splitters out there today that take all the guesswork our of it.
@@bryantwalley No it's not solid. When you are syncing external gear it's not perfect. I don't use it that way because it's so bad. Try syncing up an external drum machine or arp device and you will see the problems. I hear people complaining about this all the time that use external gear. The only way I use midi is to trigger it for recording into an audio track. I would never try to perform live with it.. It sucks.
@@Ast3rixMusic I been doing this over 30 years. There have been times where I have had as many as 8 or 10 midi devices all in sync, all running at the same time with no issues. I'm not the only one. There are many people that do this every day without issue. Like I said before, you get timing issues when you start chaining devices. That is not a problem with the clock. That is called latency. One midi device to another will not have latency. If you are connecting several devices you need a midi router or splitter to reduce the delay from the signal going from one device to the other. There are companies that make central midi controllers if you have a very large rig. I'm trying to help you out but I can't make you learn it. If you don't believe me watch some of the people here on UA-cam do it.
@@bryantwalley I appreciate your info but I have a very good working knowledge of midi. I actually am running a very advanced midi setup with two iconnectivity mioxm units. I know what works and doesn't work for me. My setup works fine the way I am using it today. I'm not interested in setting up a chain of devices to run in conjunction with my Akai Force. I am getting exactly what I need with my setup and I am able to record the sounds I need.
Crazy because,I was at IAMD in my hometown Chicago 2000!I took a year off when,I graduated in nyc 99 high school.I made my first beat on a Roland xp 80 with digi design aka protools as my daw and edit the track on sound edit 16.Then my cousin in 2001 at our college told me about fruity loops....I felt it was too fruity for me lol at the time and bought another software for my new 2001 Mac g3 laptop...I ain’t going to lie stole most of the software from my school with a Zip disk...smh protools was a problem to take.I used to roll my b’s in the studio at my college while making my beats for my advance audio class!That beat went gold in my city and platinum now but sold it for 125 and a bag of trees lol in 2000...smh
Thank you for this! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

Akai should definitely link with Cakewalk to turn MPC 2.0 software into a monster DAW!
