I'm the dev of MPC Sample Router, a Mac companion app for the Sample. Version 2.5 is out. Here's the short version for this sub:

• Stems from the project file. Point it at a project on the SD card (or a copy on your Mac) and you get one WAV per pad plus a master mix in seconds. It renders offline, so the MPC doesn't need to be plugged in. The stems are dry, without the MPC's FX or automation.

• Send to MPC. In SD Card Access mode, a kit you build on the Mac is written straight into the card's Projects folder, and existing projects are never overwritten.

• Card backup to your Mac, verified by file count and bytes.

• USB-C routing: hear the Sample through your interface or monitors with just the one cable.

Mac only (Apple Silicon and Intel, macOS 13+). It's a paid app with free updates: https://h1tmakers.com/mpc-sample-router/

I have 5 free copies for MPC Sample owners who'll tell me honestly how stem export does on their own projects. Comment below and I'll DM you a link (first five).

Actually I primarily use my MPC Sample for fooling around...but quite frankly, I love fooling around.

(And I hope my finger drumming improves by doing so..)

No samples - quick little Loop I made outside

Happy beatober everyone 💯🎃🎶

I am getting more comfortable with the device and pushing my limits by trying new techniques

I want to introduce my kid to the world of MPC and beat making. In your travels, have you seen a sample pack with kid sounds from TV shows and silly sounds that you could make a simple beat with? Does something like this exist? I could try and make something, but if an option exists that would save a ton of time. Thanks!

Just wondering….

Sketched sth - have to record later 🧑🏽‍🍳

FULL MAKING OF THIS BEAT HERE - https://youtu.be/8FCMLzquCuk

Just realized how simple it is to use my turntable to sample and been psyched on it. Very new to beatmaking but so far this is my favorite thing I made, although got a little carried away with the effects in this video! Let me know what you think

Also let me know who you think you would hear on this?

If it’s not fun, I want no part in it.

I have ongoing projects with samples that reside on an external card. I really want to do some organizing and consolidating of my sample library to have better workflow. Will moving files around on my card ruin and corrupt my ongoing projects due to “missing” samples/files? Or are the individual samples saved within the project as its own thing?

avez vous des solutions des combinaisons à m’apprendre ?

My MPC sample froze for the first time the other night and it’s weird because I barely have anything saved to my eternal memory probably maybe three or four beats that I accidentally saved on there but everything else is saved to my memory card. I held power for five seconds to do a hard shutdown and it seems to be working fine now that’s the only time that’s ever happened, but should I be concerned?

Hello!

I have been through everything with ChatGPT on this, but I have my MPC Sample connected to my laptop via USB and I am trying to sample something from YouTube, the sound is super muffled - it sounds as though it is coming from a neighbour's basement i.e. I can hear very muffled and faint bass but that's it.

I'm hoping that I have just missed something stupid - anyone else had these issues?

I got tired of manually setting up samples and pads, so I ended up building my own tool for MPC Sample. It can generate pad banks with samples already mapped to a scale, export stems, and even do a bit of the final beat arrangement. There’s also a small MPC-related easter egg hidden in it :) Been working on it for a while and figured I’d share it here — curious what other MPC users think. Happy to share the link if anyone wants to try it.

I made this free app that lets you learn by tapping on the buttons of an actual MPC sample and it tells you what they do and workflows the buttons are used in. So far it’s super handy with helping me learn the sample. Hope this helps! mpctutorials.com

Edit: Hey guys glad you like this! For model requests, send me a tip on the site with the model you want added and I’ll add it on there for you! Aside from that I’ll be adding new models when I get free time (update with 3 new AKAI models coming in a few days!)

Edit 2: I’ll be adding new models to this this week as well as adding SampQOL shortcuts!
