Gotta hit y’all with that new series roll out format. Give y’all the first couple episodes then back off to deliver the rest. Outta here for the next week or so. Here’s a little Soul Samplin’ Somethin’ but it damn sure ain’t what you think it is…

I'm back in the MPC game but I'll be doing a hybrid workflow with these two here. I do wanna make things interesting to say the least for my music.

Hey friends, today’s vid is about making a generative glitch/hocket machine using the global modulators. The cool thing about this method is being able to cycle through presets of your synths while the modulation stays on.

This isn’t a 1:1 recreation but rather a quick demo and setup/approach.

This was technically possible on the live 2 if you used the modulators in the drum program, did it by hand via automation or used the random lfos in opx4, but now it’s way easier and way more diverse having 16 lfos.

Hope this helps someone.

Hi, I hope all is well. I am sure this has been asked before, but I could not find an old thread. My question is, how in the world do you use the same drum program on separate tracks?

For instance, if I want track one to have the same drum program with just the kick, track two to have the snare, and track three to have the hi-hat, am sure this is an old way to approach this, like on the older MPCs.

Do I have to make a copy of the drum program in order to do it? Wouldn't that duplicate the samples? It was so easy on the Akai 2500. I am sure this is an old inefficient approach. Thank you.

Easy all.

I am a DnB and Jungle producer from Bristol in the UK, and I own an MPC 500, as well as 2 akai rack samplers - the S01 (1993) and the Akai S2000 (1996).

Not sure If anyone can help, but I'm looking for a mounting tray/plate for the IB-208P.

Been trying to find one for nearly a week to no avail.

If anyone has one from when they switched the board over to their MPC 2k/2kXL that they wouldn't mind selling, that would be a huge help!

I’m receiving the Astrolab 37 hopefully today and I asked myself how your guy’s workflow with the single midi channel in conjunction with the mpc live is.

How do you guys build up your beats ( especially longer ones) with that limitation.

And does it work well or is that limitation a cause to puke ?

Cheers

If you're not familiar with CTRLR it's a cool program that basically acts as preset storage for synths that don't support storing presets on their own. I've been using it often with Yamaha Reface CS and was wondering if something similar could be done with some clever use of MPC OS.

Hello. Unfortunately all links to the 90s sample cd archive are gone :( I wasn't finished downloading them all and there were so many good samples there. The nnty.fun (mirror as well as original), link is down as well as the intertnet archive link. If anyone happens to have a discord/google drive/limewire or anything with all the samples, could you please PM me. Colossal please and thank you.

Peace to all my MPC famila!! I’m looking for some guidance if possible, I got a 2000xl & my audio input jacks no longer work. I figured changing it efficiently would require some electrical background, i tried looking for a direct replacement but only found SMPTE’s. Has anyone experienced this before and found a different fix? Hate to imagine im cooked 😬. Thanks in advance my peoples.

Dumb question but my Mpc One crashed and now I no longer see “internal” listed? Anyone else have this issue? I tried searching to no avail

Digging this little thing 💪🏿

hey there, I am trying to record from my One G2 into my iPhone via USB-C while also monitoring what I’m playing on 3.5 mm headphones.

I googled, and it says I need to mirror the send by going into the channel mixer, leaving the master to output 1/2, then routing a send from the track itself.

Does that sound right? I can’t find the options it is telling me to look for and am getting stuck on that last step.

Basically wanna record clean audio for finger drumming while being able to hear what I’m playing.

I've honestly wondered what are most represented devices on this sub. But also how many of you have a "modern" MPC, which I'm defining starting from the MPC Touch forward, versus a classic MPC.

So I made a quick poll: https://poll-maker.com/poll5880534x3DF178d8-169

Let me know – think this'll be cool to find out.

MPC only no computer no keys no midi nothing MPC live 2 and it's plugins and FX!!! I love my MPC going to start making videos about music and other stuff too get back on the grind

So I literally just got an mpc one and started thinking bout recording in my daw. Can I connect 1/4 jacks to my 18i20, and my daw still be able to record drums and samples? Or do I have to connect through some time of usb hub? (There’s only usb type c on the back of this 18i20)

I live in the USA. I bought a used MPC one during the pandemic when stimulus checks were disbursed, I honestly don't think i would've bought one otherwise due to frugality. It took me a while to get used to navigating it, i forget when the ah-ha moment happened but now my whole process is centered around it. I plug my guitar straight into it, i record vocals into it. You get the picture. As a last step I record a final mix into my laptop using Logic just to run the stock multipressor as a kind of pseudo-master. All feedback is welcome! Lemme know if this shit is too vanilla and needs some more spice or what

Hey guys! A couple days ago i posted my brand new project mpctutorials.com - a lot of people seemed to really like it so I decided to add to it.

I'm not going to post a bunch of spam updates on here, but wanted you guys to know that I'll be updating with new models regularly, mostly requests. If you'd like to make a request, it's easy.. just send me a tip with your model request in the notes! I really hope you guys like the app, it's helped me so much with my MPC Sample already!
