MPC Thread : MPC Live - MPC X - MPC One (Part 2)

It’s pretty good if you’re not going too far away from an original bpm… but there’s a better time stretch algorithm in MPC Software.
I’ve never done this with an OT to compare, but I do it with Ableton and I’d say Ableton is a bit better across a full track, but it has a lot more cpu to lean on.

Not too good, works for a few bpms only

Yeah in MPC Software it works amazing without issues.

About BG3 saves:

Oh god, I think I literally had something like 1,000 saves in that game, according to the auto-generated filenames. On PS5 it caps the number of saves per character and I had to clear it out regularly.


I’d agree with this. I really didn’t care for the timestretch algo if I was going more than, say 10 BPM away (it’s been almost a year so the exact value might not be accurate). It got really grainy in a way that did not fit with my music.

I just want all the samplers, is that so much to ask? I know nothing about pokemon but I have to assume it’s the same thing, catch’em all or die tryin.

I said I’d go broke if I kept playing, so I stopped buying MTG cards and got into samplers. Oops.

Anyone using the MPC Key 37 as a main control for other gear? How is your experience with it? How is the MPC workflow?

Finally got to use the MPC One Plus I ordered and I’m incredibly impressed so far. I was going to check out the F9 expansion pack, but are there any specific plugins or sample packs anyone would recommend?

I use it to control pigments, omnisphere, etc with a midi track over usb. I haven’t set up any q-links or tried pads with drum plugins but the keys, wheels work great without any setup.

Damn that’s one of the other pieces of gear they stole from Eddie. He was using the FXs to spice up the 3k samples . Luckily he reached his GoFundMe goal & then some.

yeah I saw that… painful to even hear about it as I’ve had a taste of that…

the SU700 was the first hardware version of ableton live, I loved it as much as I hated the SU200 :laughing:

Life is wickedly funny. Sorry you had to go thru that.
I got the RS7000 which is the last groove-box Yamaha did.

I just finished moving all the RS beats I made to Force. This was one of the undeveloped ones from 2018 I was going to delete until I tapped into the power of the Dark-side. Still I work in progress… All sounds is from the RS. No FXs just recorded the RS via Force. The Force crossfader is messing with the bass:

I’m working on a free sample pack called “The Golden Age of Porn” because all samples have been sampled from 70es and 80es porn, as you would, here’s a beat I made on the MPC using only those sounds (both music and vocal snippets) while kick, snare and hi hats are from other sources.

I will obviously share here once ready…

This had to be more fun than digging through crates of old vinyl.

:wink:

Cheers!
