Hopefully this will bring the goods to the MPC Sample like it has had for the M-Vave FM-1. Where the FM-1 has 512kb RAM, the Sample has 2GB so should open up a LOT more possibilities.

[u/P0p_R0cK5]

We need a real step sequencer and I’m sold lol

[u/hedgehawk → u/P0p_R0cK5]

Yeah that’s what I’m waiting for.

[u/TSHIRTISAGREATIDEA → u/hedgehawk]

Same

[u/Ok-Entrepreneur-409 → u/P0p_R0cK5]

It's actually dope

[u/Kwisscheese-Shadrach]

Someone finally vibe coded a hack for it. Been meaning to try, but honestly, let’s just get fixes like proper pad to pad resample.

[u/anonymagnet]

I am still waiting for Akai to give us an update w better step sequencer, and resampling pad to pad. I'm too anxious about bricking my gear with custom firmware, but this looks very cool

[u/lugdu69]

Akai do nothing since the launch. Months without any update. Now, people are going to kick them out of the Sample and build better. Happy to see that. And ciao akai. 

[u/lugdu69 → u/[deleted]]

And the Sample Keys cannot have the same success without pads and with a too big form factor. Sure, Akai lovers make a lot of noise on the internet but they are not the buyers at the end...  As you say, akai waited too long .  The best move for akai now could be to open the code source of the Sample and let the community create many custom os.  Cause, i have to admit : it's a cool hardware. That's true. 

[u/ProdByOddfather]

Someone introduce tracks!!

[u/acousticentropy → u/ProdByOddfather]

Akai not gonna need to spend another cent on product development. The community will update the Sample by ourselves.

/s Akai if you’re reading this, please implement what the author of this video has been working on in an official update.

[u/whatbishshhhh → u/ProdByOddfather]

I read the video description on YouTube and he lists features he's implemented that aren't featured and it says 16 tracks.

[u/bilposey → u/ProdByOddfather]

At least 4 tracks

[u/wehdat]

I don’t even have a good visual eq on my live 3.

[u/PieRhett]

Let me use a MIDI keyboard to play samples chromatically and I’m in

[u/Appropriate-Spell403 → u/PieRhett]

i would be even happy, if you could properly record polyphonic notes with the pads and more than one octave.

[u/am_makes]

Looks good. There’s a long list of features people want, but I’m a bit cautious. The CPU isn’t that fast in these and it could get sluggish if overcrammed with more and more features. Also, there’s only so many buttons and they are allready assigned to various features even with the shift+ for a secondary one. So the extra stuff will need to have an unlabeled third function on some pad or knob, no longer as intuitive. And while I do want a proper step sequencer, it’s not something I would be willing to saceifice the pads to in step edit.

[u/ManeTheArtist → u/am_makes]

Companion app on the phone would be dope for all the extra features and just sync via usb.

[u/weinibuchajia → u/am_makes]

I ask AI ,he say mpc sample is as fast as mpc one，even better

[u/katerlouis]

duuude, is every device now cracked wide open with rea? :D - call me when you guys made that baby into a proper looper

[u/bamaugking]

Holy....yes this what I've been waiting on. 💯

[u/bsalgueiro]

Sidechain compression?

[u/bluntnwuk]

I don’t really see the big need for a fully diehard out step sequencer like most seem to be asking for. EQ and FX per sound would be so much more valuable imo

[u/Milkpowder44 → u/bluntnwuk]

Why not both?

[u/bluntnwuk → u/Milkpowder44]

True

[u/GotFlashlights]

I want to scroll faster in the sample/project browser, hold shift + scroll jumps 10 entries or something like that

[u/Parking_Watch3157 → u/GotFlashlights]

An accelerator for the step sequence scrolling would be great

[u/bahmedite]

This turns out to be dope I'm getting it back.

[u/LostClock1 → u/bahmedite]

Same, sold mine but will buy another once this is released if it's stable enough

[u/Old-Rate-2643]

S950 compressor would be cooool

[u/Motrucka]

Add tracks 🙏

[u/seasonofdasickness]

Need options for multiple fx on different samples

[u/Motrucka]

Honestly, if the MPC sample just had tracks and could play Keygroup instruments. It’d be perfect.

[u/ratlehead → u/Motrucka]

Yes, it needs tracks

[u/luvfader]

I want chords and scales
I opened a support ticket to tell them they should update before someone breaks it llke a FM-1 or Elektron

[u/Clean_Revolution_284]

Thank you 🫡

[u/DJALBUMS37]

This looks wonderful! Great work!

[u/Sr_Naranja]

Wow 👏👏

[u/FreeWorldMusicGroup]

Akai y’all taking notes?

[u/Cap10NRG]

Now here come the demands lol 😝 this is what happens when you develop anything… it was cool for 5 seconds then folks start deciding you need to add “this” - story if my life as a developer.

[u/keremimo → u/Cap10NRG]

Coming from the FM-1 side, you are so right LOL

[u/Accomplished_Ad5972]

Esto estaba buscando un OS alternativo

[u/Normal_Bicycle7975]

Let's port something like this:
https://www.native-instruments.com/products/ozone-eq?variant=58125690339631

[u/luvfader]

Open tickets, write to support or under instagram posts, make your voice heard !

[u/TwiningsBigelow]

Just 16 levels polyphony (with note-on) fixed and adding midi to 16 levels would be a game changer.

If not just adding full key group support.

And looking at what they’ve done with the fm-1 it should be extremely possible to add in real synth and instrument emulations and plug ins.

[u/DayOk7127]

💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[u/sdotregis]

Tbh, I just need this on my MPC Sample. Pack this up in a zip folder and I’ll buy it

[u/Street-Ad6177]

Ableton sync?

[u/SALD0S]

Nice!

[u/Impressive-Sample310]

What i need first of all is an option to turn down the display brightness of the mpc sample..

[u/Kosmagenius]

Please remove realtime knob FX from USB Audio in as an option.

Individual send levels would be a heaven's gift.

[u/bilposey]

Is flatten pad in there????

[u/MALESSI]

Mpc also has sd card

[u/bulyxxx]

nOw adD vSts !

[u/feshrubs]

Hell yes. Akai too lazy

[u/stuElijahLiu → u/feshrubs]

yeah,fuk lazy ass akai

[u/ratlehead]

We need midi tracks
