First Day with the MPC Studio

Показать описание
I unbox and demo the MPC Studio, a new midi controller from Akai that connects to the MPC 2 software. I made a beat from scratch and tested plugins, drum and keygroup programs, sample chopping, and autosampler.

Quick thing I want to make sure is clear... The MPC software includes all the new stuff from the 2.10 update, including the plugins. And, because this is software, you can load in your own plugins as well.

Your finger drumming skills are on point, holy smokes.

Thanks for another enjoyable presentation.

Miller Brotha ! Excellent and full in-depth review of the Akai MPC 2 😱🙏👋 The hardware and software makes this an intuitive beast for composing DAF beats. Some music producers prefer to work this way like I do. You nailed it Brotha G 👌😎💻😄💲🎶🎵👂

You can also use the touch strip to adjust the volume of any pad by pressing the touch strip button, then using the data wheel to go to "Pad Level" parameter, then use strip to adjust...instead of having to use mode>>pad or channel mixer... Awesome feature for mixing- as you already know.

As skeptical as I was initially (hey all, AKAI made maschine mikro MK3!), i think this thing is actually brilliant. Nicely made, affordable, very nice distinct workflow and somehow you don't feel like octopus with 4 button shortcuts of Mk3.

Gabe,
I had to spit out my coffee laughing so hard when you said, " Save room for side chain, as if it's a meal" hahah
Excellent video as always!!!

AKAI, use this, add inputs and outputs, and give us a new MPC 500!

The now discontinued MPC touch might actually be a better deal if you can find a used one. It has the exact same “face” (and touchscreen) as the MPC live mk1, but contrary to the MPC Studio mk2, it also includes an audio interface. It also came with the MPC 2 software, but the launch MSRP was way higher at $799.

Like that "scratch strip" at Left...! Would be a good addition to MPC L3 also (so you don't have to have the screen on XY mode)

This thing seems sick. I got the MPC one a while ago but I kinda wanna get this too to place at my PC since the MPC lives somewhere else. Kinda decadent I think the design on this is actually hitting what you wanna get out of a machine like this.
