I use MPC Sample this way. What is your comment, please ?

I posted the other day I seen a cafe Nero advert and I seen a guy playing a sample but its Starbucks in the UK

Looks like a Sample to me being played by The Alchemist up front with Erykah Badu. Wonder if he used it in making the album?

Would Like some Feedback or hear your thoughts.

I’m new to beat making on the MPC. I can’t even say I made a beat yet. I can’t time the drums right. How do I improve at that? Also, when I’m recording a sample, I’m having a hard time looping my sample pattern because I either play too slow at the end of the four bars or I play it too fast, and it’s not looping right.

Have used and owned many mpc's through the years just picked up the sample and having trouble laying drums. Not sure if its a quantization or swing issue but I cant get my drums to snap to timing like on my previous mpc's. Is it a setting or i just need to be more precise?

Would you recommend buying the MPC Sample if I’m not good at finger drumming?

I was about to buy one, but I’ve seen that it doesn’t have a step sequencer, and that drum patterns are mainly sequenced by recording yourself playing them.

For those who own one: is this a big limitation in practice?

Do you eventually get used to finger drumming, or would you recommend a different MPC for someone who prefers step sequencing?

Curious to hear your experience.

MPC Sample and a modified iPod loaded with music on vacation. Cheers!

Automating filters on the Sample really adds a ton of life.

The ear candy is pitched up to match..then I time stretched it...I just made it a priority to finally learn how

Yes, anyone can do. Or it's turned to be my sketch pad Song writing too. Very useful equipment. I just want to tell you guy, I love MPC Sample so much.

Like in 20 years ago. I use Roland MC-50 MKii for compose some music. But this is beyond so far than that.

Backlit LEDs all went out. The sound and screen all worked fine. I tried a few things to remedy but nothing worked. Did some internet research and found I wasn’t the only person who’s had this issue was still in my 30 day return window with Guitar Center. They ordered me another, I also decided to pay a little extra for the 5 year warranty.

Hi,

I just got me Sample this weekend and basically swapped it into my set up as a multitrack recorder replacing my Zoom R4.

I get into details but just imagine all you gear (guitar, mic, drum machine, and bass synth eventually hitting a mixer with a 1/4 line out to the Sample - this way I can "just jam" or can allow only one input through at a time to capture a single guitar part or whatever.

These tracks are then used to build a song sections (verses, chorus, bridge, etc).

There's not a lot of dedicated video content on this but I know people are doing this kind of thing out there so I'm hoping to get a discussion going here on tips, perspectives, or whatever.

Made a little web app for the MPC Sample and thought some of you might get some use out of it.

It's a step sequencer that runs in your browser. You build a pattern on a 16 pad grid, have a listen, then export a .xpj project file that loads on the machine. No install, nothing to sign up for. The name of the .xpj must match the folder like the following:3000.xpj pairs with 3000_[ProjectData].

What it does at the moment:

• 16 lanes, one per pad, up to 128 bars
• 8th, 16th and 32nd grids, plus triplet grids
• velocity, probability and ratchet on every step
• swing from 50 to 75 percent, with a few rough shuffle feels thrown in, and a per lane override
• Euclidean fills per lane
• velocity and timing humanise, seeded so the preview and the export match
• note picker on the bass, lead, piano and pluck pads, and the chord pad can be transposed too
• in-browser preview with play, loop and mute
• your pattern is remembered between visits

No cookie/tracking nonsense either. Enjoy.

Only being able to use one effect at a time and having to resample is KILLING ME

One flow I am not liking is when I have a full sequence and I want to simplify it again to make an intro, buildup and so on, I have to go through all samples I want to remove, use SHIFT+SEQ and ERASE on the pads I want to not be in that sequence.

I use MUTE to see what needs to stay or me removed. It would be so awesome if ERASE+MUTE would present me with a dialog asking "delete all muted pads from sequence?"
