Extremely well done. I often have trouble with tutorials like this but you started from the beginning and went through logically. Thanks. I feel like I was starting to get the muscle memory and I don't even have a Force yet! LOL

@wtcbd01 4 года назад

Incredible Tutorials Matthew. Unlike some others, you show the why, where and how of each movement on video and through explanation. This is extremely hard to do so great editing and teaching. Thanks again.

@MatthewStratton 4 года назад

You're welcome. Glad to help.

If money were no object I'd get one of these just to have it. Best product of 2020. Superb video!

@weakbruteforce 4 года назад

I really hope Akai has sent you a check! These tutorials on the Force are the only reason I haven't returned that thing. Have an MPC X but wanted something for preproduction - easy to jump on and work on ideas. The learning curve is steep...

@ajiaxwo5469 3 года назад

@djtouchinstuff6691 3 года назад

this was the best video to watch if it's your first time with the Force in hand. Really helped me start finding my way around. Thank you, all of your videos really helped! Literally all of them on the Force. I finallyI feel ready to cut loose on this thing!

@manofsound9098 Год назад

Great video however you missed a few important areas. Hold "edit" down while selecting a track to change instrument and "edit" knobs 1-8 to change knob configurations etc. Also holding Shift while in selecting "Load" will also delete files. THE Most overlooked feature is the "Warning: Low on temporary space". This is for SPLICE only. To get rid of this message you must delete unwanted Splice directories that Splice creates on your internal memory when you sync your Akai Force. Splice puts many sub folders and copies of a sample into folders, and this takes up memory! Simply delete them using the SHIFT/LOAD - then delete file! Other than that, what a great video!

@donlooney647 4 года назад

Thank you for the AKAI Force tutorials. Cant wait to get mine. Should arive soon. One question: Is it possible to change the cv/gate outputs to hz per volt and from v trig to s trig?

@ArguZ72 5 лет назад

He Matthew, great editing...could i ask for a little more space in between the audio edits ? like 4 frames or so extra, so it does not feel so chopped. But great pace in the video, it's really good to follow along...can't wait to get mine :)

@40791 4 года назад

Very comprehensive, and good tutorials Sir! Apologies if I have missed this... after integrating with my Ableton project via WiFi sync can I use the FORCE as a midi keyboard to play my Ableton drum rack or play an Ableton piano plugin? TIA!

@word2RG 5 лет назад

thanks man. i still dont know what akai have in mind w this thing.

@locoluciano6745 5 лет назад

still waiting for your force tutorials bro ! I have 1 question - how to edit note length in clip window?

@jodagold5481 5 лет назад

Thanks :) how does the force deal with time signatures ? This would be seal or no deal for me .. Much appreciated

@aloahe4807 2 года назад

As Ableton User i must say.. in "Pad Mode" the Force is a faster Ableton :D

@hassandanielchavezdcomplex8935 5 лет назад

awesome i cant wait to get it....... can you go through the memory and file systems also do you have an ssd as well?

@MatthewStratton 5 лет назад

I do not have a SSD installed, but there is a spot on the back for one. I am using a 128 GB SD card. Yes, I can add that to the list. 👍

@andreweyison8406 5 лет назад

Thanks for your help. Can the Akai Force's note repeat function be used when in ableton link mode? In other words can the sounds from Ableton in Link mode be Note repeated from the Force?

@inthefade 4 года назад

I'm supposed to be getting mine in the mail tomorrow. The only thing that concerns me is that it doesn't look set up for much one handed operation. This is a problem for me because I play keyboards with a sampler live, and often I only have a quick little moment to use my left hand to change something on the sampler. I'm sure I'll figure out how to work around it though. This thing looks like a monster. I'm also worried that I haven't heard anyone use the built-in synths in a way that I like because everyone is making EDM or hip-hop with the Force, but I'm sure I'll be able to wrangle some dirty and warm textures out of it. If not, I'll just have to sample my existing synths. I was planning on borrowing some of my friends' classic analog synths anyway to make synth patches. Thanks for the video! I'm sure I'll be able to dive into it quickly after watching all these tutorials.

@awkwardsquadproject 5 лет назад

Is the Force able to do the thing that the Push 2 does where you start different clips in different tracks in different scenes then when you like what you hear convert the active clips to make one complete scene arrangement ? Excellent videos by the way 💯🙌

If you press shift-launch does the sequencer go the next scene after the current one ends? [like Ableton]

When I change the swing I cant hear any difference. What I have to do to change the swing to the whole project?

@samuelzavaleta451 3 года назад

Hey Matthew, I just saw your video saying you cannot connect an extra pedal to launch escenas? Tracks while you are playing another instrument like guitar for example. How are addressing this situation do you have a suggestion or I just go amd return my Akai force and get push 2 abbleton? Thanks and are you going to make a serial of videos from the begging like you did with MPC live. I love them cause you can learn very eficientemente! You r the best!

@MatthewStratton 3 года назад

No way that I am aware of to trigger loops or recording with pedals on the Force. I don't know if it is possible on the Force.

@samuelzavaleta451 3 года назад

@@MatthewStratton thanks Matthew, I’m very new with the force. I just heard that you can use arrangement mode to build songs. That’s is something I can start with while Akai people figure it out that using a pedal to switch things is a plus... Are you going to make a video using arrangement which I could find in the manual? Thanks

@brendanlange1656 3 года назад

Does the force have smart scale midi compatibility with ableton?

@jmfhsmith4923 9 месяцев назад

Hey, how many clips can you have per track? Could I record 50 drum patterns and chain them all together in a song mode or arrangement?

@jorgecds 5 лет назад

Matthew do you like the force more than the live?

@MatthewStratton 5 лет назад

Not yet. Only 3 days in. It does feel like a nice piece of gear though. Will be fun to explore more.

@2011Rollsroyce 5 лет назад

Can I use the Akai Force with Pro Tools or is it just for Abelton live.

@MatthewStratton 5 лет назад

There will be an update this month that will let users better integrate the Akai Force with Ableton Live. There has been no mention of pro tools that I am aware of, although you can always use the midi port to sync with pro tools and trigger midi notes.

@hristostoev80 4 года назад

you missed the +/- buttons. I am wondering if they can be used for Tempo Bend. I can't seem to find any info anywhere. Wondering if anyone has any info?

@MatthewStratton 4 года назад

The plus and minus buttons do the same thing as the data dial above them. Controls the red box within the touch screen.

Mathew Did you realize you can copy and paste rows as well as delete them just like you do tracks.

@MrJohnjorahkoster 3 года назад

You never explained "MASTER" that little Botton at the bottom right. So what exactly are we looking at? Submixes 1-8, Returns 1-4, Sends... How do we do it? Show us the MASTER!!!!!

@MatthewStratton 3 года назад

Please calm down.

@MatthewStratton 3 года назад

You need to be in the mixer, then press "master" to get to the submixes, returns, and sends.

@MrJohnjorahkoster 3 года назад

@@MatthewStratton From the Matrix screen, I hit MASTER "showing master tracks" is this a dead zone except for assigning tempo and key? I can't get anything on this screen to do anything? Then I press mixer and I'm in a master mix areas but again, the "sends" page is another dead zone? What do I do there? There are 5 pages in the Master Mixer area that are confusing. So I watched "overview of all buttons" and right when it started to get to Master, the last button the video ends. To be continued?
