This week I made an electronic jam on the MPC Live 2! Even threw some vocals in there at the end with the built in vocal tuner and reverb. Really enjoying this machine. First video I've edited on the M1 Pro MacBook Pro 16 as well, a dream to edit with. Thank you to my Patrons: Tempest Anderson, ipodmypants, SIGMATA, Cutestory, Derik Taylor.

Dang this sounds absolutely fantastic. This is the first video I'm finding that does actual songwriting and it kinda makes me want to sell my other gear and go MPC. That initial loop was full perfection

@DylanParisMusic Год назад

thank you! it's really cool how much you can do with the MPCs now

@RJ_Eckie Год назад

@@DylanParisMusic Reports of limited processing power is holding me back for now. I’d love to do my whole recording/producing thing in a hardware box (I make acoustic songs with electronic elements.) Might invest in a full Ableton license instead

Finally, a video that shows what this machine can do, outside of hiphop/dance. That first loop is sweet as - Could literally listen to it all day long. You've just given Akai a sale from me!

I am a new MPC User and have struggled with the workflow, one thing I picked up on in this video that helped me was that you started with a harmony idea and built on that...I have always started with the drums and was wondering why all my compositions sounded the same. Well, now I know why! This is a music "rut buster" video! I am going to fire up the MPC ONE tonight and change my approach. I will find a sound that inspires my to play and start with that! I have no idea why this did not occur to me sooner....Thank you for this video!!

@DylanParisMusic 2 года назад

@DylanParisMusic 2 года назад

Thank you! There's some good videos on it, I usually just change the key setting til my voice fits right with my beat

@tricks-and-tips 2 года назад

Nice jam! I totally feel that first loop you made. I'd put that on repeat all night. Even started up the Subsequent 37 and jammed along. And I think this visual composition works well too with the diagonal layout and good screen visibility. Finally: the MPC actually sounds quite good. It is a tad less warmer than the 707 maybe, but I really liked this one. Somehow I feel the MPC is a keeper for you. It is still flirting with mee too and I'm not sure if I can be faithful and monogamous much longer, or have to cheat on the 707 and add another woman to the table. PS, I do envy your MBP.......

@DylanParisMusic 2 года назад

Thanks man! Yeah the new synth sounds with the Hype engine really push the MPC Live 2 into MC 707 sound quality territory. I still miss the zencore in a box that you get with the 707. Moving forward I'm trying to just keep the gear I buy so I'm hopeful the Live 2 will stick around for a while! And yeah man, the MBP M1 Pro 16 is the coolest computer I've ever used. Would recommend.

@tricks-and-tips 2 года назад

@@DylanParisMusic Stick with it for at least 50 finished projects (jams, sessions, tracks whatever) I name them 01-dnb etc, so I can keep track of my progress. Just started project 30 😃 I’m still learning new tricks on my 707 and only after so many months of jamming and exploring, I can really achieve what I want without thinking too much (maybe I’m a slow learner, but I think it pays to dive deep, not far) If I would have the budget and more reason to buy a new MBP, I would for sure.

@RickRijuanaPro 11 месяцев назад

Dope I was wondering if the new machines needed a phantom power source but I see you plugged directly into it

@IsshmanGarcia 8 месяцев назад

He is using a dynamic microphone with XLR-QRT jack, so no phantom power needed. A condenser microphone would need phantom power.

is it just me or did you name that "emooooooooootional" I dig it. this shit fire as fuck hahaha love it. where do you get your sick synthwave sounds really reminded me of some playradioplay stuff. either way thanks for the jam dude

@DylanParisMusic 2 года назад

so many emotions haha! Thanks for watching I'm glad you enjoyed it!

@BigSmilezBeats 2 года назад

Nice jam! I've been contemplating purchasing a dynamic mic. Which one do you use?

@DylanParisMusic 2 года назад

Thanks! I use a Shure Beta 58A!

@lidiamonssinger Год назад

@@DylanParisMusic is it true that the signal is low when you plug in directly a dynamic microphone? I saw Matthew Stratton talk about that in his tutorials that he uploaded about 3 years ago. I just bought my mpc live 2 and it will soon arrive, I am a singer but a complete beginner in the mpc world. I would like to use my mpc when singin live in my gigs! But I only have a wireless shure blx24/SM58 and a Shure Super55, will either of those work? thank you great video!

@DylanParisMusic Год назад

You can apply compressor and other effects on the channel that will make the audio from your microphone louder :]

@DylanParisMusic 2 года назад

MPC LIVE 2 for sure :)

@zoltn 2 года назад

Or perhaps the Akai Force since you are a familiar with Push

2 года назад

@@zoltn this is other option beside live 2 , but soundwise maschine + better, for the workflow force is very familier and the best, Live 2 feels fully stand alone input/output capability amazing but workflow frustrates me. I really dont know which is the best for me

@wren23_bass-synths 2 года назад

@ I have the MC-707 and a MPC One controlling my outboard synths. The MPC is much better at controlling outboard synths. I'm going to upgrade to the Live ll for portability but keeping the One too. If you use a USB hub is even better. The MPC will recognize whatever synths plugged into the hub and you can sequence it.

That's awesome, I just updated my MPC Live 2 but I can't find Hype, can any help me out! need this plugin asap!

@DylanParisMusic 2 года назад

It should be under the plugins section when loading a track, what MPC version are you on?

@thahyst 2 года назад

@@DylanParisMusic I'm on 2.10 but after I did the upgraded. I turned my mpc back on standalone mode and the first thing that popped up was "you need to download synth content" I'm wondering if maybe Hype was in there. Cause I have the Tubesynth, Electric Piano and the Bass plugin but not much more than that.

@DylanParisMusic 2 года назад

@@thahyst Found this on reddit for you: Full step-by-step to install the new plugins on your MPC (AFTER you have updated the firmware): Go to your Akai membership page. Go to Firmware > MPC 2.10 Firmware Update, then click the link "MPC 2.10 Synth Content" to download the Zip archive. Extract the Zip archive's contents to your computer. Copy the "Synths" folder from that archive to the root of any external storage for your MPC (ideally something that will be installed long-term, like an SD card, or SSD for MPC Live II). Open the Plugin menu for a track. You should see the new plugins listed (if not visible, try restarting the MPC).

could this be used in a live setting on stage?

I’ve seen bands use MPC Lives on stage before. Depends on what you want to do with it but it definitely has capabilities that can work in a live setting

@@DylanParisMusic what i would like to know , as a vocalist , could it be used as a vocal harmonizer live? or would there be retention?

@DylanParisMusic Год назад

The vocal effects are pretty low latency, I think it would work as a live effect
