!!!:sunglasses::sunglasses::sunglasses:!!! Just sooo happy!!

Was just browsing around (overpriced) second hand mpc1000/2500s… might reconsider MPC Live when this turns out well :star_struck:!

resparked my interest in the live here a bit. maschines been great but I do miss the ‘turn on and go’ aspect of it. and sofa jams. now its got synths and an arp in it too. waiting out for some sound demos but its looking good

Holy crap. I’ve been debating replacing my OT with one of these as it seems like it would be more useful for the kinds of stuff I want to do, and this update with synths excites me to no end. Holy crap.

Question: has anyone successfully “DJed” with the Live? I’ve used the OT in the past with oneshot static machines to play full tracks and crossfade them between each other. Is there a way on the Live to set something up like that for when I do live sets where I’m just playing stereo tracks?

Sold my mpc live to upgrade to a mpc x, great to see the synth finally here!

Wow, it is a big update. Auto sampler looks interesting :yum:

tubedigga hot on it. uploaded 7 minutes ago :joy:

I must say that this is an awesome update!

That autosampling feature seems to be a huge timesaver !
it would be cool to have more than 4 velocity layers for each sample…

It works in standalone mode, I just made a multisample instrument from Nave running on the iPad, this alone is huge.

Wow that’s cool!

For how I used the Live back when I had one, this is huge.

And the synth sounds pretty good to me. Far exceeding expectations.

I really don’t need GAS right now…
