Why Are Top Producers Switching to the MPC?

Yessir! Bout Damn time 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I got my MPC One back in march and haven't looked back after using DAW's for the last 20 years. I love it!!!!

Try using it in controller mode with the mpc software. That way ypu can use whatever vst synth you like in the mpc workflow

Limitations help make it easier to not overthink the creation process.

I have a MPC X SE and it revolutionized my sound. The MPCs are excellent for loops and chops

Welcome to the darkside! We've been waiting for you. 😂😂😂

J Dilla will change your mind about the "limitations"

You Definitley got the right dude by your side..Jae is a Beast on that MPC

That last sample chop you did was dope!

Learning a new device is always a challenge. When I got my Live 2 it took me about a year to realise how powerful this thing really is. The DAW vs MPC experience is different and both have their strengths and weaknesses. At the time of writing this I’m equally pro DAW as I am MPC (standalone). It’s all about what you want to accomplish and how you want to go about it. If I had to moan about the MPC… yes, at times you may come across some bugs. The other niggle is with the Live 2’s q-link knob limitation, a full 16 knob layout would’ve been appreciated. Otherwise, a fairly good machine capable of great results. Enjoyed the video, reminds me of when I first got started.

This was kinda wholesome to watch. You guys working together all concentrated and ready to learn and having fun. Love it. I love my MPC and use it together with my DAW like an instrument and to come up with ideas fast.

Yooo @Jae Freshman is an MPC GOD, That's a big link up right there!!!💯👊🏾

Welcome, we've been waiting on you. 😁

Always love these learning type videos :' )

@15:10 It's far from limited. A lot of classics have been made on the MPC platform. It comes to being accustomed to using the hardware and tricks of the trade.

Producers used MPC’s to make beats heavily since the late 80’s. MPC was over a decade old in the early 2000’s

🎉🎉🎉it's fire love u ocean

I think it is good to have an MPC just to get out of DAW mode some times. Getting out of your comfort zone is good for inspiration...I have a MPC LIVEII, Maschine + and Ableton Push also I used Logic for DAW. I know that is better to master 1 DAW or 1 device like the MPC but when you jump back and forth it will let you know that is not the equipment that makes you good at making music is you as a beat maker or producer that can handle any chalange. Ocean enjoy your new MPC and I hope to see more videos of you making music no matter what DAW or hardware you use in the future.

Welcome to the MPC fraternity. It works great in conjunction with Logic. Build your beat and arrange it in the MPC. Use the individual outputs to send the sounds and arrangement to Logic, and then finish the mix and master in Logic. Just don't go fall into the vintage MPC trap lol
