Saw in another video on the qlink pop up issue if you hold down que link button on the top right you can click on bottom right of screen where it says show qlink status when touched and turn it off!
Appreciate you greatly Ave.....I'm a 47 yr. Young SP1200 UndaGround Vet & yes The Live 2 is my new Mistress...lol...just wanted to Thank you for covering certain details in your Videos...like I said b4 it's like taking a lesson from an A-alike...your descriptives take me in the right direction every time...Salute My G!✌🏾🎧🎶👑😎
@@unbearifiedbear1885 LLS 😆..appreciate da gesture,Scrap ...& Da Wife is ok wit it All...so I guess I'm a Polygamist like my Ancient Akebulan-ian Ancestors now💪🏾👑😎
I agree with you. This video is so detailed and thorough. I teach cybersecurity. I like to break concepts down like this. The beginner will definitely learn from this. Great instructor.
This couldn't of come out at a better time - FedEx just dropped off the retro two days ago and just started messin with it today. Thanks for making this vid Ave.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I have always been a DAW user and decided to explore the MPC environment. It’s a major learning curve and I need these tutorials! 🙏
What's up Ave? First off, man i watch ya stream every Sunday. Keep doin ya thing. Second, i got my first mpc last October. As a student, I have to say I get so much out of your videos. God bless and Thank you.
This is on time, got my live2 retro bout a week ago. I had a 2000xl bout 10 years ago, been on fl studio since it got stolen. A lot has changed, thanks
Ever since i watch this, ive been using HP filter. I usually use EQ. Big difference. Even the WAV sample looks smoother. All these years. SMH Thank u brother
Extremely informative. I hit a roadblock and you went above and beyond with showing what you can do with an MPC. Thank you for the video! Looking forward to checking out your other videos.
Thanks for the video man, sampling really gets on my nerves when I can't make everything match up but I'm persistent to get better it's nice to watch your workflow. Some things I'm like yeah I know that but then you pull a technique out that is really helpful. Just watching you create and narrate at the same time kind of calms me down and helps give me the balls to try again. Also, your timing is really good, I'm still working on being on time for the bpm when I play live but I'm getting there. Thanks for your video it was really helpful.
Thank u so much for this ! I made the leap from my MPC TOUCH and just received my MPC LIVE 2 two days ago as well. I work with vinyl a lot and you just made my workflow go so much smoother !
I have watched a few sampling/chop videos and yours was very thorough and easy to understand and apply to my MPC1. It just immediately clicked and made sense. Thank you.
Something I do I connect my phone up to my MPC live 2 and while I have my fl studio mobile 3 app open I sample from my own fl studio mobile projects that I have made inside of fl studio mobile I don't have a vinyl record player to sample from still the process is about the same so very useful concept 👍🏾
You can sample so much off the phone. I love it. What a powergul sound tool. Halfway dont even need to pay for splice if it werent for nice intergration. Just hook up my special cable and sample it. Love the mpc
Great stuff! Don't even own an MPC yet but looking forward to owning one at some point. Quick suggestion. It would be awesome if the camera could be separated from the work surface so we see fewer vibrations :) Other than that. Keep it up bro.
OK I've been messing with that inserts part when yur sampling, it does make a difference, wow there's sooo many options on things, I just want it to sound exactly like it does on my phone before it goes into the machine, u know what I mean? Nice.
Thanks for hitting all those processes I’ve had 3 mpc in the past the x the live and now my mpc live 2 gold edition just landed 3rd time lucky as new got on with the ones before but with the different updates it’s come along way how’s the best way but how do you work with loops at different tempos as most videos on hip hop beats house uses different layers of different drums and loops ? I asked other people they said it’s complicated as most chop a sample and play drums in what if had 4 drum layers and different elements
Thanks fam you make it look easy but I know the MPC live 2 is super fun to get to know how to use I'm getting me one soon I'ma let u know when I get it to
What's good bro...1st...thank you for all the jems that you give the producer community......do you have a video on how to set up external hd so that I can transfer my tracks from the internal hd of the mpc live 2
Hey Ave, those Q-link grey boxes suck… I wasn’t sure if you knew an avenue for a recommendation to Akai for a change? I think the thing they did with the banks showing up on the bottom of the screen is awesome how it’s semitransparent, I think Akai should do the same for the Qs’! They could still show the round button and it wouldn’t be so in the way when chopping samples! I don’t see anyone having a problem with a change like that, what’s your thoughts? Also thanks a lot for the time stretching tip you just made all my time stretched beats sound 100% better and gave me more flexibility thanks 🙏🏻
New to the MPC Live Fam. Thanks for your Videos very helpful. What type of vinyl or record player are you using that has outputs that plug into the MPC Live?
Hi, great tutorials u make! Thank u; U said about 17:50 that u have Input 3/4 also?? U just have Input 1/2 on the Live!? The 3/4 are for the mpc x or not? Is it possible that the sampler starts recording when i am pushing Start button on the hardware snd stops recording after the sequence is finished?? Because if the first note of my external synth is not on the 1.0.0 on the grid its difficult to cut the sample.. Thanks by
First of all thx for all you do. How do I get ALL my Smpl pks to show up together on my screen like yours. I know you made a video but I can't find it. Thank you again sir
The same exact way he showed you how to slice the samples (When he showed us about chopping by region or BPM and the other two ways). You can do the exact same thing with the vocals
Thanks for the video. To be honest bro samping on the MPC 2500 or 1000 is way faster than the newer MPC's. I guess that's why Pete Rock, Dr.Dre, DJ Premier etc.... still use the older machines. Very efficient & less time pushing buttons an menu diving. It's gets in the way of the funk.
What is this SCHWEET 69 BPM Sample, may I ask? it is amazing and would love to have a play with this. Please let me know where I can find a copy? Thanks for your video, amazingly well detailed and for someone with a midi sampler/keyboard and reaper I still managed to get what you were doing and how you're tweaking it, great stuff. Hopefully one day I can buy an MPC! The Akai II looks great.
New sub here - massive props for your videos, dude.. I have and OP-1 and want to add some new flavour, having trouble deciding between a Live II and Maschine+ (I can get either box for $750 from a friend) I'm not a producer, not an engineer.. just like to noodle.. really having trouble deciding which would be better for me (or better for the OP-1) Thanks for all the info, bro - all love from London UK ❤🇬🇧🇺🇸❤
Live is much better. You can look videos of the two verses each other here on RUclips. And the videos might have the Live 1. But it's the same EXACT software... Akai will always be the king of sampling. And there are a lot of extra features you will learn as you go.. and with each update it gets better and better. It's literally a complete studio in a box. Sending Peace and mad love from NY ✊🏽🕶️💜
@@mackmccord3743 I've been back-2- backing comparison videos for ages lol.. just a terrible procrastinator! Last night I found a bargin OG Live for £400, boxed and in great condition and with a 500g ssd full of stuff.. decided that at _that_ price I can live without the battery and speaker Delivers on Friday - I cannot *wait!* Thanks bro - all love from London UK
@@unbearifiedbear1885 now that's what Eye call a sweet deal. Eye just ordered the Live 2 retro and it has 3 Extra expansion packs (not the ones from Akai) included on a 256 memory card (not ssd), and a hard waterproof Apache 4800 case for $1100 usd with financing.. so it'll be $62 a month. Eye'm happy with my decision as well. But that ssd that you received and the fun you'll have exploring it will be a great experience in itself
@@mackmccord3743 Ah that's great, bro! yeah I'm hoping to luck out and find some _gold_ on that drive lol.. I like working with samples (esp. Percussion) but don't really sample sht myself very often, so it'd be cool to have that library there from "go" Broke my finger badly a few years back at work and lost a lot of articulation at the middle knuckle, so I can't play guitar anymore, after playing basically daily for 18yrs (self taught) - these Groovebox's have really made me reconsider how I can still make music for fun.. what a time to be here, man.. when we were younger, consumer tech like this would've been unimaginable.. now we're here all love to the Big Apple, from London UK - best of luck on your journey, my guy Hope you enjoy your new machine 👍🏻 NYLON forever ❤🇬🇧🇺🇸❤
@@unbearifiedbear1885 yes how the times have changed. Eye hope that can someday get the finger going again. Muscle memory and cell repair is real. You know copper lined gloves. All that! So Eye'm a lil weird about samples. Eye have a lot of synth great and hardware and over 1000 vinyl records. But Eye only sample myself into the MPC and chop it and make music like that. Not really big into sampling other people's music. Not against it. Eye just don't like the fact that a lot of my funk and RnB superheroes are still alive and some of them are struggling with no money, while producers sample their music and make thousands or millions off of their creations... And most attempt to change the sample so much that is unrecognized... That's trash to me. Those older artists went to school and or studied their craft. Just for someone to come 20-60 years later and get rich.... Especially when these superheroes that Eye speak of didn't sample at all... They may have copied Eyedeas. But they actually played it themselves and interpreted it in their own way with their own musicality... Eye can do the same. Even if it takes me longer... And if Eye ever do sample someone, in the far future, Eye guarantee you, if that artist is still around, they will be in the videos, if Eye perform in their city, Eye will personally invite them to be on stage with me and get money... But Eye was built different and Eye always take the longer harder path. You NJoy those new gifts. Can't wait to get mine. (My MPC Live stopped charging about a month ago. Had it since 2017. And still have figured out what's wrong with it yet.) Eye'm sending you and your family mad love from Yonkers NY 💜💜 🇬🇧NYLON🇺🇸💜💜 💜💜🇺🇸NYLON🇬🇧💜💜 EYE LOVE IT!
This was very helpful! If you don’t mind me asking what sample pack is this and where did you get it from? (Around the 10 -11 min mark) I didn’t see the link in the description.
Thank you for the videos Ave! Much appreciated. I have a question. I recoded myself in to the MPC playing an Ukulele riff. I tried to be on time, but there are a couple places where the riff is off tempo. As the riff is recorded, I can't quantize. So my question is, could you please point me to one of your videos that teaches how to snap the off beat audio into place? Thank you.
Quick random question for anyone who owns an MPC LIVE. I am considering getting one soon the only issue that’s holding me back on my decision is I’ve only used DAWs (FL Studio, Ableton) & my concerns are is the Akai software in the live pretty hard to get used to or easy to actually catch on to? I don’t mind learning the new software my only fear is purchasing the item & having it collect dust because I never got used to it or it’s tricky to catch on
Thank you so much for the video. I do have a quick question: When using the que link to manually trim the end point of the sample, is there a way for that "pop up" to not appear on the screen, because it blocks your view when trying to establish the end point, while using the que link. Thank you, Ave, for all of your videos. Blessings!
@@mpcbeats9218 So after turning off the Q-Link status, I will be still able to use the q link manually to find my end point without that q link pop up? I am a newbie, as if you couldn't tell.
Great Video! Question; is there any way to do synced live sampling/resampling? I've been trying to use the looper paired with a drum group that has premade midi, then exporting the looper to that drum group etc... But, it's a bit clumsy. Do you have a better suggestion? I'm really hoping Akai improves the looper (similar to a real hardware looper, at least offering synced "Stop") or even better would be recording into Clips similar to Ableton.
Hey guys! Sorry for being ghost lately. I had a lot of stuff on my mind. We back on schedule next week!
Hold down the q link button there is a option to turn off the side bar when you touch the q links.
@@mpcbeats9218 thank you
Saw in another video on the qlink pop up issue if you hold down que link button on the top right you can click on bottom right of screen where it says show qlink status when touched and turn it off!
could you change your name and intro back to this one please??? you are amazing and really awesome at reviewing and making music!

I agree with you. This video is so detailed and thorough. I teach cybersecurity. I like to break concepts down like this. The beginner will definitely learn from this. Great instructor.
Best ever. I can't go back to my old mpc or 1200. It does all the basics plus all the dream features we always wanted. That's all we need.
I've been using Reason+Recycle for 20 years, waiting for this exact machine. I knew it had to exist eventually 🙏🏿
This couldn't of come out at a better time - FedEx just dropped off the retro two days ago and just started messin with it today. Thanks for making this vid Ave.
Bru you just saved me so much money..I had no idea you could make drum kits like that!. I appreciate it!
You are an absolute wizard with an MPC!
thanks for the video og... just got the mpc live 2 days ago, these all been mad helpful

I be worried about people wanting to steal it. Its kept me from working with people i dont knw. What happened just curious?
@@omnidolce8607 I returned it since I started using Ableton and got a push 2. The mpc live was cool but ableton is it for me
Yooo, grats on being one of the few who managed to lock down that MPC Retro. Ive been looking for either the MPC ONE or Live II in Retro.
There are plenty left.
Thanks Ave! You’re videos have been super helpful in learning how to use my MPC One. Much appreciated brother.

Still using the Ren in 2021!
I find myself coming back to your vids to study. You're the man!!
This is what I searched. You are the best.. ALL make video but startet direkt by chopping.. Thank you 🙏🙏🙏 your video is detailed.
Most welcome 😊
Just joined the MPC community. Copped the Live 2 and this is exactly what I needed. Thank you!
Extremely informative. I hit a roadblock and you went above and beyond with showing what you can do with an MPC. Thank you for the video! Looking forward to checking out your other videos.

I know it’s late timing but I’m really digging your videos. Good stuff bro.
3:05 what is the link for setting up your SD card for success?? I would love to see what you recommend! Thank you :-)
Great video bro, I just got my MPC Live 2 & I couldn’t find a video that explains things the way you do. Amazing 🤩!!
I don't even have an MPC only a old S300Oxl rack , this was a great upload tempted to pick a live the workflow looks decent, thanks.

I don’t know how yet but I hope so. Either way, you can avoid that by using the touch screen instead.
@@AveMcree Thank you, Ave. Blessings!
@@mpcbeats9218 So after turning off the Q-Link status, I will be still able to use the q link manually to find my end point without that q link pop up? I am a newbie, as if you couldn't tell.
@@mpcbeats9218 Thank you, Scott. I appreciate your help. Blessings!
Great Video! Question; is there any way to do synced live sampling/resampling? I've been trying to use the looper paired with a drum group that has premade midi, then exporting the looper to that drum group etc... But, it's a bit clumsy. Do you have a better suggestion? I'm really hoping Akai improves the looper (similar to a real hardware looper, at least offering synced "Stop") or even better would be recording into Clips similar to Ableton.
This is a great video for beginners. 👍🏾👍🏾🎯
