MPC1000 & Akai S950 beat

[hillprop97]

Love the sounds.

[hoellenwalze]

this is quite nice man!!!

[goredsox1792]

LOL yo ivan wadup

[peepingtomthumb]

agreed, sample, drums, or drums sample, but if you do it that way, make sure to re-do the drums once the samples down, :P

could have also been your quantize settings that makes it so rigid.

[hip360hop]

remember young grasshopper, sample first, then fill with drums

[GhostFace2k3]

beat needs major work

[hankyn]

wow.. pretty wack

[soulburner978]

@hankyn

Thank you for your comment

[hankyn]

@soulburner978 actually it's not bad. i was in bad mood then, keep doin' ya thing. peace

[Leoooonard]

@soulburner978 i say the drums are what you could work on, also try to mix it up a little bit and put more time in to the beat . also in my own opinon the piano sounds a little to fast. keep practising!

[Co0kieMadera187]

fucking fly way to play an mpc haha !

[Dottin]

Is that Ultimate beats & breaks I spy....

[maximIlovemusic]

Hi! Please tell me, can I trigger s950 with an Akai MPD?And if yes will the sounds be touch sensible?



[iggyds89]

@maximIlovemusic if it has midi out you can trigger , but it has no sequencer so you can't make beats that way , maybe for live performance you can use it that way

[maximIlovemusic]

@iggyds89 or if I would decide to do overdubs to external recorder.

Thanks.

And does s950 has a midi out?

[iggyds89]

@maximIlovemusic yes it does

[ChrisSousa9]

Haha lol I got the same exacto knife kit.

[FatChicanoFilmz]

your working area is a bit dirty.

[soulburner978]

@FatChicanoFilmz

To the right of me is my art studio. i was finishing a project before I leaped over to my MPC. lol

[djwonderFOOL]

nice oldskool beat!

but a short question:

you can make the same beat wihtout the s950 to,

so why you use it? peace

[soulburner978]

for the love of that 12 bit crunch.

[djwonderFOOL]

ok the sound is really cool! to you trigger the s950 with the mpc trough MIDI?how to you record your final beat?

[soulburner978]

yup i trigger it through midi. Record the sequence on my MPC 1000 and track out into Logic for finalization.

[djwonderFOOL]

thanks for the explanation, i hope i get a s950 or s3000 son :)

have already a 2500 but its to new ;)

i have another question, how to you record in logic? to you use the stereo out of the mpc, or go you through your mixer in a 2 channel audio interface? peace from austria

[soulburner978]

no problem. I track out using Logic as the master utilizing the mpc assignable out into my mixer and out into the audio interface 2 channel a time til I get all the tracks in the mpc.

[kekenalii]

@djwonderFOOL

have you ever sampled anything in 12bit?

it sounds dramatically different than 16 or 24 bit. thats why you sample into units like the s950.

the shit just sounds different.

[djwonderFOOL]

he man,

i only have a 16 bit sampler in my mpc and a 24 bit at 44,1khZ sampling rate by my audio interface, but i know there is a big differenz! there is a LoFI effekt on the samples, this is the main effekt! am I right?

[Marshallsoloway]

Are you using the 1000 just to midi controll it or ar eyou sequencing ont he 100?

[soulburner978]

I'm using it as both. The pads to trigger the S950 and 1000 to sequence. I resampled the piano part back into the 1000 from the s950

[vegunited06]

once you can work your way around the s950 it becomes real easy to use, just hit rec, go thru the settings pages (name, time, bandwidth etc) - trim the start/end while hitting 'PB'. "get" a keygroup, skip to page 5, select the sample - set the midi-chan/audio-output on pages 16 and 17 and there you have it job done!

[loopwholetube]

are you using the 950 as a drum module in this vid? cool! peace bro.

[soulburner978]

yessir.

[mnjibber]

just as a critique, that drum pattern doesn't groove with the sample, feels really tight

[soulburner978]

thanks for the critique. it was a quick beat so not a whole lot of thought into it.

[Metamophisis]

Dope beat yo!

[Itzoficial]

classic beat bro...
