Hey, just wanted to let everyone know I've left Open Labs and started a new company called Music Computing. Check out the new gear at Music Computing or click the link below for videos. - Thanks, Victor Wong
I have a problem with the PITCH SHIFT function. When i change the pitch of the sample to +1.00 or -1.00 (semi tone), than the sample sounds damaged. When put it to +12.00 or -12.00 (one octave) no problem. So there's nothing wrong with the sample itself.
i wanted to do this with my mpc1000 but you can't becuz reason only have a midi in and no midi out, pretty messed up, but you can rewire it to cubase and then do it or use only cubase as your sequencer.
after I do this, I record my own loop of a sample that I chopped and assigned to 8 pads... then when I try to layer drums over what I just recorded, every time I hit a pad, the sample playing cuts out... I know it has to do with MONO & POLY, but either way it fucks up... I can either lay the drums with the sample on POLY overlapping, or have the sample on MONO and have it cut out when I hit another pad.... what do I have to do to just play the sample loop and make drums over it?
nah its a stand alone music production station. u might need a computer to get ur tracks onto cd though. and to load samples onto ur flashcard via usb.
so is that really and advantage? n is an mpc 1000 compatible with any recording software? like can i transfer my sequence to a pc and then edit sum more in my pc using sum kind of software? n if i can which 1 would u recomend?
ok, i dont know if this has been cleared up in your mind yet, but get the mpc, i've had mine for a year and a half now... and yeah, its true the pc is more capable, but the fact is that most pc beats have a generic sound to them... just look at 90 percent of fruity loops beats versus mpc beats. if you don't know who he is, i suggest you search boon doc on youtube, he will make you see the power of an mpc (and hardware in general)
Personally, i use to use a lot of out board gear. Drum machines, synths, samplers .
Like many others, I was suckered into the whole software thing.. Sure, software is more convenient. Saving, loading etc... But power and convenience comes at a cost. Sure, we have literally thousands of software options to choose from but that in it self causes a sense of confusion not to mention that in fact it can at times be counter productive as it leaves us with waaayyy to many options.
In my opinion external gear sounds and feels much more solid. What do I mean by this?
Hmm I could go on forever about this subject.... One example of this would be.. Akai mpcs and drum machines have rock solid timing! Pcs feel kind of loose and sloppy.
Only issue with chop shop is it mashes all your samples down to mono... which sometimes works - but i slice samples equally, adjust & extract - then you get to keep 'em stereo..
I just got the MPC 2500, when i try to hook up a Keyboard thru MIDI i can get the keyboard to play the sounds out of the mpc,but can even hear the sounds out of the keyboard....What am i doing wrong???
How do I get the samples and programs to load automatically when I load a sequence-when I load a sequence now i have to go through and load the samples and programs i used in that sequence-is there anyway around it? I've tried autoload-Please any help would be great.
when u save ur shit, u got to select the entire memory then go down to roots and press da window key and open a new file name it then close then save entire memory...when you ll then load up the file everything is there...industry tips right there son...holla
Turn off AutoLoad or Create your own Auto Load folder with your Assigned drum sounds. 01. Press the [WINDOW] key in the LOAD from field of the LOAD page. The Load Setup window will be displayed. 02. In the Autoload field, set the field to OFF. 03. Press the [F4] (CLOSE) key to close the window.
Man....WHY SO MANY HATERS???? Damn?!?!? Its enuff money out there for us ALL!!! Need I say more? Keep up the good work homie ill never bring down another artist! WE ARE ALL IN IT TO WIN!!! (encouragement for you... One Love!)
seriously anyone who thinks a computer is better then an MPC and that MPC's are dead need to go bout ther beats in a different way and check what the pro's are usin
u can be way more creative on a mpc vs. a pc, you can play with it, using your hands to guide the beat instead of clicking and dragging all night to get a beat u arent happy with.. im coppin one of these or the roland mv 8000
what version of JJ OS are you using??? Or is this the Akai OS??

Only issue with chop shop is it mashes all your samples down to mono... which sometimes works - but i slice samples equally, adjust & extract - then you get to keep 'em stereo..
