  • @Loagz_Beatz
    @Loagz_Beatz 8 місяців тому +1

    From someone who started out using FL studio and learned Ableton Live, I think it is definitely worth it. I worked at Guitar Center years ago and they said I could get a free version of Live if I did the course to become a certified instructor, so I did it. After I learned what the daw was about, I don't think I've used FL studio since. The aesthetics, the way they do tutorial videos, the overall feel of the company, the workflow, idk it just sucked me in. I don't think one is necessarily better than the other, but I definitely use Ableton Live every day now for the past I'd say 6 years - and I'm still learning new stuff every year.

    I still use my MPD 32 but I use it with the ipad and BM3. I have a workflow with the 32. My favorite part are the slide faders. If I had to sell my gear to get money up I'd keep the 32. A lot of people say the pads are stiff but I don't have that issue. It doesn't bother me.

      @theycallmeheat The only one that takes the same sensors as the 60, 60ii, 3000, 3000LE, 2000, 2000XL, and 4000 - is the MPD16. That era of MPCs has the best pads, so technically, you could mod an MPD16 and weight it with lead. Full rubber Phat Pads with something on the sensor (electrical tape or discs from the mod kits) with those OG sensors will always be the best pads ever. You can still buy the sensors, 5 would last most people a lifetime.

  • @inthestudy

    Thanks for this. I picked one up for ~$65 based on your recommendation and I think so far it was a good call. My midi rig is now complete, and completely OTT. Got a big 61key piano action, a lil 49 key Laboratory keyboard, a tiny Launchpad and one of these MPDs that's basically just a drum pad for me.
    I ended up going a bit wild with old hardware synths. A real Roland Sound Canvas (also my primary audio interface for guitar, vocals, bass) and Studio Canvas and a real Yamaha MU; plus DIY MT-32 and DX7 clones for that 80's vibe. All completely unnecessary, but they were super cheap and means I can run the entire studio on a PC that cost $80 brand new at launch without CPU or RAM problems.
    So, thanks a bundle for a great video!

    Why not just get the MPD226? The pads on that are good. But I do agree stick with the equipment that you're comfortable with. For years Ive been jumping around from Maschine to Reason to Ableton but now I stuck with the MPC because I instantly clicked with its workflow and im comfortable with the workflow as well.

      the 226 and 32 are basically the same unit. the 32 just has more knobs and pots. I hate the build of the 226. lol, so I got the 32 instead.
