to be able to make our own sounds is CRAZY THAT OPENS THE DOOR to so much sound designers to come up with much more instruments for the MPC and the keyboard Akai is about to take over telling you such a great time to be alive!!!
Ill wait for price to go down in a month or two. I jumped on the MPC Instrument Collection for $500 the same day it came out- now its $350. TBH, I havent used any of them except OPx4...so I can wait for a RC20 clone and a Monarch clone til another date. IDK about updating either. I went up to 2.11.5 and it broke mp3 previews,etc so I downgraded back to the stable 2.11.4. Now they have 2.11.6 and people already saying a bunch of stuff broke. I'll wait...for now. Great video though Poli Popo-as usual.
That’s was nice surprise. Just got my MPC ONE and all your videos I seem to come across. I will subscribe now to your channel. I updated via Ethernet. The plug-ins are still not available for trial period though? Is this same for everyone?
Hey thanks bro for the video im frustrated with my akai im just dumbfounded to MPC world its just hard to understand for me im a beginner with it 🤦🏽♂️appreciate you making these so dope
I was in the same place some years back. Things'll fall into place little by little. Whenever frustration gets to a boiling point, shut'r down, walk away and live to see another day. Tubes like this one, Tubedigga, Marlow Digs as well as many others I can list will be a big help navigating through the MPC's ecosystem.
Congratulations! Great video bro! Love how much information you were able to put into it from start to finish!...can't wait to rip into my new updates!
Just started peeping your videos and really appreciate the shared knowledge. I have an mpc2000xl but im a dinosaur, havent made music in over 10-15 years. Im pretty sure im gonna get the mpclive2 and a small midi keyboard for it. Seems like i can do everything i need like that. I sample but want to use a lot of plugins, filters, eq, etc. So, my question is, can i do it all without a laptop or computer, i just have a phone, lol. I dont see why i couldnt just download something like that miniD on my phone and dump it to the mpc via bluetooth?
I started on the xl and the live will make you feel right at home 💯 and I’ve seen plenty of phones and tablets hooked up to this but not Bluetooth, but I’m sure in an update or two.
Nice video, any “manuals” available? Glad these exist but gonna pass for now, I hope inMusic-Akai can afford to post update & patch notes soon! Still looking for 2.11.6
Check your account. I downloaded the manuals for software and hardware 2.11.6 today and release notes. If I'm not mistaken it might be the old links still- but new downloads when you press on them.
Bro could you please do another video detailing the step sequencer for drums and automations? From a self admittedly poor, non ambidextrous finger drummer 😭 theres not many other vids on this and i enjoyed your last session. Respect
Am I the only one who thinks it's hilarious how we are much we are digitally recreating the "defects" and "imperfections" we spent the last 40 years trying to eliminate, digitally?
Love the new plugins, I see you need to have v 2.11 6,but iam still see v.2.11.5 on my X,with no option to a higher ver? If I purchase the plugins will it give me the ver2.11.6..I am a bit confused 😕
Hi Poli. Have you had issues using an audio interface with the new update or past updates? I was hoping the new update would fix this. I bought the scarlette 4i4 with the MPC one recently, and have never been able to use the two together without audio dropouts every few seconds. Any idea if this will ever get fixed in an update? or is it something to do with the audio interface itself? Hard to find recent info on this. Thanks for your videos! ive been watching them all!
We get updates because Akai screwed up the MP3 drag and drop and I had to go back to 2.11.4 lol…I’m scared to do an update now…I just need akai to improve song mode!
Hey thanks for the info! Quick question… I have a hard drive installed in my MPC Live 2 and after updating to 2.11.6 I noticed over half of my 1 TB drive was full… normally I’m at less than 20 percent full. You got any thoughts on what that might be?
@@woodandsteel3040 go to their MPC Plugins page and click the new plugins banner (they didn't format their landing pages that well, all are up right now) Mini D is 79$, Flavor Pro is $69 but they won't be that way for long.
Wait man they still have midi cc broken basic functions don’t even work I have done like 6 updates and still no fix. so I thought cool at-least new update gives air flavor pro and ya have to pay for it smh 🤦♂️, so they made a 61 keys a sound pack for 500 and won’t fix the basic functions of the mpc and now charging us again wtf akai 🤦♂️ about to sell this thing just fix the machine !!!! I’m scared to even see the price on this stuff . This is what air flavor should have been in the first place but now we need a pro paid version.
Yeah I noticed that but good looking out The other half of the video is better I’ll definitely pay better attention next time 💯 🎶 I do appreciate it very much.
@@EnochLight I’ll get better 💯 I’m enjoying the process and I’m definitely learning but like to show the struggle lol. Thanks again for mentioning the camera though, It helps me to get better at this for sure.
is it free for mpc x and 61 keys users. I have both and will not be paying for it. Akai you promised us high end user we would not have to pay for updates. life time free updates remember.
Once I purchase air flavor pro from the MPC site it downloads as a zip file And when I’m hooked up to my computer it will extract directly to the MPC desktop software am I correct?

I’m really happy to hear the latest update is good and smooth…been scared to do the last 2 or 3 updates😅😅😅
Thank you mr Popo you made this update more refreshing!
poli popo, is by far the best akai mpc tutorial channel. thanks for helping us so much.
cheers.
Great video. Thanks for you r contributions to the community.
I try 💯 🎶 and thank you 🙏
So glad to hear about the Moog😊
Dope as usual… very insightful.
Can’t wait for version 3
Hope they make lots of improvements with the software and more plugins
Nice one Popo. Appreciate you.
Mini D sounds funky, like Worrell type of funky
Excellent video as always
I hear Floyd in there 💎
Moog model D emulation on my MPC live? Lets goooo :)
Yussir 💯

Yep. Can be a great form of synthesis.
You were 1st out the gate with the news.

6,but iam still see v.2.11.5 on my X,with no option to a higher ver? If I purchase the plugins will it give me the ver2.11.6..I am a bit confused 😕
I'm in the same boat... just purchased flavor pro but I'm stuck on 2.11.5 with no option to upgrade to 2.11.6
@@sarkastik_hound_4TC maybe they rolling them out in slowly, so as not be overwhelmed with bug problems..I will wait patiently and see what happens..🙂
Should be under wireless
Wireless? I can’t update past .5 either
Found the .6 update on akai website now
Why can't we just get all the Expansions AIR AIEP3 Premier Instrument Pack 3.0 Virtual Instrument Plug-in Bundle

I lost 60 songs last update and now won’t read mp3’s
U can't drag and drop onto the main screen anymore?
Mp3 is fixed with this update!!
@@wurlinnawurl but what did it break they been fixing one thing but breaking another every update
@@SonicVibe 👀👀👀Whattt
Can a larger monitor plugged in ? thanks
Unfortunately not but the software looks pretty close to what’s on the screen so in controller mode it works out pretty cool
2.11.5 was horrible. Hopefully this fixes the crashing issues I was having just loading loops and samples
Did they fix the MP3 problem?
I have problem with no sounds output this the actual fw with my mpc1
Update has a bunch of unwanted noise issues when using tascam as usb interface. (Downloaded flavour pro and mini d - both are dope af).
I’m using soundcraft mixer so far so good but definitely good to know 💯
Sameee here wtf
Got some sound issues too, I'm usin the tascam model 12 as interface, any solutions for it?
Mr popo which soundcraft mixer are u using?
I raised a ticket with Akai a couple of weeks ago. They fixed the issue in 2.11.7 released today.
Hey thanks for the info! Quick question… I have a hard drive installed in my MPC Live 2 and after updating to 2.11.6 I noticed over half of my 1 TB drive was full… normally I’m at less than 20 percent full. You got any thoughts on what that might be?
Why not put it in controller mode and browse it yourself from the computer. You might have a defective or fraudulent drive.
Thanks Poli P. U Da Man…🔥💯😎👍🏾
Thank You 🙏
@@PoliPopo cool beans. The puzzling thing is I can’t find a 2.11.6 update. Neither software or firmware. I guess I still got to wait for it.
how do you get the update? my mmpc 2 software won't update
When will the update and mini d be available? Nether is showing yet on my akai site..
it is for me
@@binarysun_ Just checked again and nothing yet. I'll check again later today. Thanks
@@woodandsteel3040 go to their MPC Plugins page and click the new plugins banner (they didn't format their landing pages that well, all are up right now) Mini D is 79$, Flavor Pro is $69 but they won't be that way for long.
@@combobreaker449 That did it! Thank you!!
Much appreciated thank you 🙏
You really need to output the keyboard so we’re not hearing your room speakers.
Sir why i cant see any other firmware update in my acount beside 2.11 ?
Just click on it it is the latest one they didn’t add the six at the very end I thought the exact same thing
Price .. $69 at discount rate - is that correct? flavor pro
Is no available for mpc live?
It's available for all the modern standalone devices, even the OG MPC Live.
I’m sorry it’s an update to mpc Mac or windows my mpc still at 2.11.5 not .6 it says is already up to date
Just wanted to say "Hi" to everyone.
The comments section looks busy. 🤙
Bro always good to hear from you 💯 hope all is good 👍
Good video p
i give up on their website / store.
no zip files for me. any ideas ?
Synths content manager download from Akai site
@@PoliPopo yeah, i had a vid call with andy mac, turned out they hadn`t updated the synth content manager. but all workin now
so the 2 new plugins are not free correct?
Correct 💯
Cool
Are those new plug-ins free??
Wait man they still have midi cc broken basic functions don’t even work I have done like 6 updates and still no fix. so I thought cool at-least new update gives air flavor pro and ya have to pay for it smh 🤦♂️, so they made a 61 keys a sound pack for 500 and won’t fix the basic functions of the mpc and now charging us again wtf akai 🤦♂️ about to sell this thing just fix the machine !!!! I’m scared to even see the price on this stuff . This is what air flavor should have been in the first place but now we need a pro paid version.
I cleared all midi cc and map them again from scratch. It works.
Thank You 🙏
@@sergeyrussolo8891 it still all off note for me
Also usb update been broken. Since the hype synth update.
@@PoliPopo Wow... Poli Mpc is clowning on another level bro....
Alright popo… you need to clean your damn camera lens. There’s these black splotches all over the right side of the entire video.
Yeah I noticed that but good looking out
The other half of the video is better
I’ll definitely pay better attention next time 💯 🎶 I do appreciate it very much.
Great overview video though - nicely done! The additional camera angles are a move in the right direction. Enjoying your content, man!
@@EnochLight I’ll get better 💯 I’m enjoying the process and I’m definitely learning but like to show the struggle lol. Thanks again for mentioning the camera though, It helps me to get better at this for sure.
What is free? This cost money
is it free for mpc x and 61 keys users. I have both and will not be paying for it. Akai you promised us high end user we would not have to pay for updates. life time free updates remember.
The update is free.. the plug ins cost..
LMAO!!! Akai never “promised” you free plugins and sound content for your X or Key 61. Please supply the proof or STFU.
Akai man is playing to much come on guys get it right
The synths are 💯 and workflow so far so good ❤
Always good to hear from you 💯 🎶
I’m saying
I don't understand your comment.
Can you rephrase it?
@@RaverOperatorGeeza there has been some bugs but there fixed 💯
You video is focused on your hands. Would it be too much trouble to trim your fingernails?? Geez!
I’ll definitely keep that in mind on the next one 💯 good looking out. I take all the advice I can get.
Maschine mk3 and normal vst in DAW will be better and cheaper
Nope…. Try again
Just cheaper…. Not better at all lol
Once I purchase air flavor pro from the MPC site it downloads as a zip file And when I’m hooked up to my computer it will extract directly to the MPC desktop software am I correct?
