[WhatWoMENsWant]

[Gino0]

Hi

I have some few questions for you

Whats the difference between an MPC & MPD? And for consumer preference, which one do you think is better? I hope you reply, cause I wana learn how to play music like this! I'm inspired, this is some dopeee shizz, REPLY SOON thanks man!

[bigknockzN16]

OMG, this is bangin! makes me wanna become a supervillan or suttin LOL!

[MalditoMixes]

Dude. Your laugh is exactly like mine, and I always do it after i do something like this, Amazing.

[ohJets]

How do you get your samples and what samples do you use?

[SuperBARTIBART]

FL9 thats the one i'm working at...the ROOK HVK...yo

[stickmister321]

Can you do stretch and roll effects like in mpc's?

[Evilryu3333]

what is the sample

[blu3leg3nd]

how is the pad sensivity of the mpd 26?

[caklipakli]

@blu3leg3nd haha this is exactly what I wanted to ask (originally i was looking for an answer) ..on every site I find they say "pressure sensitive" but that doesn't mean shit.. I'm curious if it has that 127 layers as the Padkontrol has. It's a shame that Padkontrol doesn't have that many knobs and faders, otherwise I would buy that one... (btw good job wantswii)

[blu3leg3nd]

@caklipakli lol and i ve just found out about the Padkontrol, which is said to have more sensitive pads and to be easier to play. But right...It doesnt have those nice knobs and faders the mpds have....hard to decide....

[caklipakli]

@blu3leg3nd yeah.. :/ I just need to know the sensitivity of this mpd..i wish i could try it out somewhere..

[Platano0587]

Nah the power runs off the usb but you need a comp to work it. Doesn't run alone like a mpc.

[DjRio1243]

Hey man this is sick do you need the power adapter for this or no

[robotnik47]

this is ill. props man.

[Gnarlynateprodukshun]

[russskates26]

@wantswii Hey man nice vid. Ive been fooling around with this thing for like a day now. I wanted to know can you sample drum sounds into it?. I got this Dj Premier drum kit which i really wanna use thanks.

[mrtsmith1972]

@Alkaponer killed it my man ...its nice and I started on a eps 16.....lol

[Lukeyjfry]

could anyone help, i have recently bought one of these and am trying to use it with reason 4, i have managed to assign some faders and knobs to work but cant for the life of me get the pads to do anything, should they just work when plugged in or do u need to assign them to specific note lanes, any help would be appreciated

[seannopak25]

hey bro should i get this one or the xr20?

[9thwonderjr]

hey, do you think FL 9 would work for it?

[Ainkombain]

so many dumb questions i cant fucking believe it

[Phazeey]

Aiiyo, what were you playing with the first 5 seconds of the vid? what do those buttons do? Also, i got the MPD18, and it only has one fader, should i return it and get the 26? how useful is all those extra buttons knobs and sliders?

[emfr96]

i dont need a keyboard also huh ?

is it just one usb cable into the computer?

[LOPEZ22922]

[juniorWNO]

EY men i like this shit!. good work. I have two question. I have mpd 26 but i dont have good program, my standard Live Ableton is Bad. What is your program? and where i found good samples?? Double Peace YO!

[plasticpunch]

[section23promotions]

No doubt he's using Logic with the ESX24 sampler

[nickbagelboy]

[SetolOne]

[ace101guy]

by thr way nice track!

[necnenecne]

[7mlove9]

I see you have a Macbook there. Do you use garageband? I cant assign my samples ton to the pads. How do you do it. I can play the different kits and instruments but I cant get samples on here.

[Tikeeeeeeee]

[LOPEZ22922]

[ThePohos]

what program are you using?

[LOPEZ22922]

i have a question do u have sounds come in with the mpd 26 or do u have too put them in the mpd26

[wantswii]

@LOPEZ22922 the mpd is a midi controller. you need a program

[soulerism]

that shit was crazy homie

[hownychea]

how do you get the samples on to this? i'm new at this lol i'm actually wanting to get one for xmas

[zacandmusic]

@hownychea hi dude im also a beginger and have got this product for christmas, you load a song onto the the daw you have ( e.g fruity loops ) and sample it by chooping it, in fruity loops case you "chop" it using edison, it chops the song into peices and then you can assighn the samples to the akais pads. keep researching dude and youll get there

[blobulusprime]

Where did you get the voice samples from? They're pretty sick man.

[KaaliqueBeats]

@blobulusprime Sounds Like a track from the game Kingdom Hearts, not sure the specific track though.

[NeuKatalYst]

@KaaliqueBeats i agree - it sounds like something you'd hear in the World that Never Was.

[MrEleventhHour]

bro that shit was raw!! lol

keep it up man

[wantswii]

@MrEleventhHour thanks!

[cruza3000]

@MrEleventhHour ou yeah !!!! 

[DJRockstarbaby]

[fredothechocolate]

[chakkatakke]

what sequencer do you use?

btw nice track

[JDMarch5th]

What program you using?

[maxfuzion]

i read somewhere the mpd26 mpd32 it short circuit the pc or laptop i dunno much bout music i'n new to this stuff but i got the mpd18 it dun have lots of banks or knobs or slider just 3 banks and a Q link fader. the mpd26 has more feature and its only $199.99 at guitar center or samash @TimayProduction if u only can't afford or want the advance mpd get the mpd18 only $99.99

[zacandmusic]

hey dude im starting to use beats soon, it might sound like a dumb question.. but how do you put the samples onto this drum machine:)? thanks

[MrBonez17]

wer on craigslist

[TimayProductions]

I'm looking at mpd models and can't decide between the 26 and the 32. Any help? :/

Dope sample btw!

[teeblack06]

@TimayProductions if you dont feel you need the extra 2 knobs and faders just get the mpd26

[CollectiveFreedom]

Hey, so I got an MPD26, and I'm having troubles. I can't find a way to make it fully compatible with FL Studio. Does anyone know where I can find a tutorial on how to do so?

[teeblack06]

@CollectiveFreedom what kind of problems are you having?

[CollectiveFreedom]

@teeblack06 None anymore! Thanks though :) I figured it all out haha

[CollectiveFreedom]

I hate to sound like a dumbass, but I'm gonna.

I've just been lately interested in making my own beats, and I'm wanting a machine like this. (Nice and cheap) And I was curious if it comes with its own samples for you to mess with?

[wantswii]

@CollectiveFreedom not a dumb question at all, but nah its a midi controller, you need your own sample in order for it to play it

[CollectiveFreedom]

@wantswii That makes sense. I've been watching more videos on the MPD models, and doing research on them. Just one more question. Where did you happen to buy yours? Did you order it online?

[wantswii]

@CollectiveFreedom craigslist

[MrBizarro9000]

Whats the difference between this and the MPD32??

[teeblack06]

@MrBizarro9000 only difference is that the mpd26 only has 6 knobs and 6 faders compared to the mpd32 which had 8 knobs and 8 faders.

[MrBizarro9000]

@teeblack06 thanks for the answer I bought the mpd 26 a few days ago and I m very happy with it. Nice video indeed

[beatmaker4free]

really catchy sample !

[MrJordanMata]

dude i want the mpd26 soooooo goddam bad

[fhoplist]

that sample is pretty damn nasty.

[mixxinmel]

@ChlordaneDub Hey i suggest Propellerhead Reason 5 it has a module called KONG Drum Designer in it that works just fine with the MPD 26 and it has multiple sample layering and everything. It is Kickin any MPC out there in the ASS.

[chokerjoker4]

@ChlordaneDub i use ableton live suite 8 and logic pro 9.1.1 but anything goes really since its sub/midi :)

[zerek44]

whoa?!?! im trippin

[wantswii]

@lakergod100 haha fuck yea lets do some shit
