Just read the manual. It’s pretty good and certainly more concise than the MPC Bible.
I really don’t see the point of that thing. It’s basically a bunch of YouTube tutorials (with similar depth …) in book form. It will take you much, much more time to work through that than to simply skim through the manual if you need to find something.
Haha I feel somewhat responsible for this, I think I helped sell you on the Live II?
Agree with the people praising its physicality, I love the button feel, pads, and speaker. And also agree about the MPC bible! I haven’t read the new edition yet and have barely scratched the new OS b/c family stuff, but that’s definitely how I’ll retrain myself.
Oh also I absolutely love OP4X, the platform’s
FM synth, and the drumsynth.
