The EASIEST way to import MIDI to MPC? (Software & Standalone)

preview_player
Показать описание
Importing MIDI files into a MPC project is quite a pain because it forces you to create multiple sequences. It does not function intuitively, but in this video I show you how to do it reasonably easily without any prepping or file conversion beforehand (which seems to be the most common workaround).

This method will work on any modern MPC (One / One+ / Live 2 / X / X SE) and while not perfect, it's well worth trying out. I cover the technique in both standalone and in controller/software mode.

Thanks for watching! If you have any questions or some tips of your own, please drop them in the comments.

Bro just go to song mode after loading all midi, create a song from all sequences and hit Convert to one sequence. Thats if you want everything one track (track 1). When you want things on diff tracks gotta use the copy method for sure. Could also load all midi patterns in the arp progressions folder as a cheat code for pad perform to spit your midi out in arp format

This is really straightforward on my MPC4000 as a new user of the SE and One Plus sad to hear this. Great tutorials BTW

It would be so much nicer to be able to import a MIDI file directly into the current track. But that wouldn't be user-hostile enough for Akai. Their designers are on their own strange planet.

Definitely takes too long. MIDI on track would be great. Let’s go Akai

It's 2024 and you can't drag and drop a MIDI file 🙈
