My bad guys! I had some technical issues with the other video... I'll have some more MPC software video this week too!!! Thanks again for the support!!
Hey Ave. Can you check out Cakewalk By Bandlab? It is also best free software available since it used to be a $500 DAW and the sick Pro-channel it has.
Thanks for doing a video for this. My boy just called me from NYC two days ago telling me about it. It looks like MPC Essentials rebooted, but the kicker is...it's free to EVERYONE now and not only Akai customers who have bought a piece of Akai hardware. (Essentials came free w/my Akai midi keyboard.) WINNING! Anyone who doesn't download this software package, is really trippin'. lol
I bought the software years ago when 2.0 was released, just because I'd always wanted an MPC and wanted to see what all the hype was about. Today, I rarely use the MPC software. I don't really regret buying it, but I wouldn't have if I could have gotten this for free. 😆🤷🏻♂️
Ave; you are a life saver.. I was getting frustrated to understand how to make my MPK MK3 works. Watched several tutorials before yours. I just getting as a hobby to distract y self and I just created my first BEAT with you video. Thanks A Lot man!!! NOT even AKAI videos guides you the proper way,,
*It's a VST plugin too! That blew me away. You could not spend money for a better drum VSTI.* We're in an area of free apps with DAW's where the ones charging us really have to work for our money. I've been doing this for over 20 years and had MPCB previously, but only just on the same workstation at once and saw the innovation. *Unbelievable!*
It’s for free, people complaining too much. Get creative with the limitations 👊🏽 Aki out did them selves with this. I wonder why they did this, lol the hardware is where it’s at for them.
They did it to rope in new customers its the oldest trick in the book but a very well played trick even if you don’t but the hardware you will definitely buy expansions lol
I remember seeing the news and initially I didn’t think it was real bcuz I couldn’t find any proof, then I went on Amazon to order a drum pad and it was like “comes with MPC Beats”
Akai has a lot of making up to do with 1. akai force left on the shelf promises & false advertisement for working with a Ableton sw led to a lot owners who payed full retail value just a year ago still don’t know what to do with waisted hardware? Now it’s already 1/2 price
I just bought my akai 2 weeks ago, been watching every tutorial on Earf and havent learned shit...I just learned so much more from this video. Thank you man!
Ajkai really wants people to try their stuff out. Great selling aspect as well as far as promotion.And the fact that people can use any controller and still be able to make music off of this and not spend a dime on a DAW for the time being.And then pull up your vets, samples, and expansions...1UP.
Its main purpose is to provide a DAW for anyone buying there midi Hardware keyboards and potentially be a gateway to buying there more expensive devices such as MPC X because the work flow is the same.
Super duper dope explanation and review.. I downloaded it yesterday and have loved it so far. For any Novation users out there, my MPK Mini mk3 works great right out of the box. I highly suggest it because of the ribbon and pitch slides are stupid fun to assign modulation to. Thank you Akai again.
Awesome .... I'm a classical musician and wanted to start with some easy MIDI rhythms and sequences. I got a mini MPK and started AKAY tutorials ... it was a terible disaster ... until I found your channel. You are really teaching me how to make beautiful music, and I will certanly enjoy it in my work, so ... I sincerely wanted to thank you for the good quality of your videos.
I learned more from this video than I did the MPC Academy videos! You Rock! Get the Akai MPK Mini and you’ll see how the pads are mapped in MPC beats. Great video!
Oh yeah I also used this inside of fl studio and studio one 5 artist this morning lol I still think I will be using mpc beats standalone to become more Intuitive with learning mpc beats one last thing i bought the akai VIP software a while back so i kinda have supported akai a while back so I am very thankful my money went to a company that gave everyone something for free that would be easily paid for so yes next videos i uploaded of beats will be inside of MPC beats to show my appreciation and continued support of akai 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I've been obsessively sampling things and passing them through MPC beats and throwing them in Kontakt. And also making impulse responses of the reverbs. Shits fun.
Ave, for some reason I can't, preview my samples despite turning on the speaker icon....great video. Now, the old heads can get back into the beats in our retirement. Yes, technology has come a long way since making beats in the classroom with the butt of the hand and tip of the finger on a wooden desk with a portable reel-to-reel. Man, did we drive our English teacher crazy with the Afro Beat ha ha.
Man I was just about to buy the mpc software but unemployment on steroids ended . And then one day later this come out I’m hyped to get off work and download I had just cop native instruments finally downloaded all and need some great fill ins on tracks and now I can thanks
Ed M same komplete 12 the shit I’m trying to get them all to talk now been a min but covid got me back in the game since my first mpc back in 2002 mpc 1k
This Give Away From Akai, will get those new beat makers hooked, then the trail will lead to buying the MPC One, Or the MPC Live II. A good Marketing Strategy.
You took me back when you mentioned Acid lol. Acid was like one of the industry standard DAW along with Protools back in the late 90’s, early 2000’s...Gotta appreciate the creators that’s been making music softwares, VSTs, and plug-ins lately cause things have got’n way better ever since.
Wow I am so used to trackers that I searched everywhere in the interface for the tracks selection/settings and it took you the first 10 seconds in this tutorial (after download and install bien sur) to show me it was right in my face I feel really dumb lol ! I am trying to make an hybrid switch from the 1000 to MPC beats to one of my best buddy so he will be able to load his 1000 patterns and programs in Beats to do some mastering, compressing and wav export, etc. in a good, easy and powerful way (he still using audacity and integrated soundcard which is a shame because his beats are good as ffff) or do it the other way so he can do chops and programs fast and easy to save em on his 1000 too ! ...but the thing is, he is a total computer/modern technology noob and I am pretty sure he will totally be able to understands your tutorials because you are easy to follow, you keep it simple and always straight to the point ! Big thanks for your videos dude !
that iaminsight had a tutorial last night on this and he didn't show how to do anything , but of course ave you came today and saved the day. good shit ole chap cheers
Thanks for this post. I got the software and even with the beginners tutorials, I felt like I was missing something. Your explanation for the startup and adding sounds was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for the video.
I compared your videos compared to the ones that the developers came up with and I must say, you are much more refined with your explanations and demonstrations. You've earned a new subscriber cheers!
im glad i came across this video ive had my mpk mini for years and never really got around to setting it up with anything i just got it going now good video
The only guy who made a video for the people who know absolutely nothing about beat making. Thank you🙏🏾!!! If you could make a video on step by step how to take a beat out of your head and make it a real beat, that would really be appreciated. That’s really my issue. I can make beats all day in my head buh when it comes to creating it frfr I’m stuck. So if you can please make a video on that, It would really help so much!!! If not does ANYONE in the comments know, if so lmk just @ me I’ll respond back. Give you my gram or sum so we can work it out.
Bro!!!!! Thanks a 1000 for doing this video I have a akia mpk mini and the software that came with is so limited I only can use one track for my sequence. This is the best thing that mpc has done for my career.
Always wanted to learn the mpc. I'm a MV8000 and roland Sp user so this is pretty new to me. Will be coming back to this vid again and again. Thanks Ave
This was super helpful and I have to say I love this DAW. The MPC One was already an incredible addition to my process but with the combination of this DAW and my MPC my workflow has improved like night and day. Thanks so much subscribed!
I linked my pads to both of my midi controllers pads to be able to play the pads in pads view the progression so I think any midi controller with pads can be link using the midi learn global functions you basically touch what you want linked inside of mpc beats and move or touch the corresponding controls on your midi controller well that's how I linked everything up together
this is a great new from akai , i had never had the opportunity to work with an mpc before , i was looking for the mpc one infos and to my surprise i found this free download , i am sharing the link to my friends, thanks for your demo
Yeah as far as the sliding 808, you can use a sliding bass in the plugins and your vst, but if you use a sample, I don't think there's a slide/portamento function in the program edit window...that would be nice
I'm used to making a song a certain way but in different ways. But I have a certain structure. I like to see the entire song... like having all 80bars and then I have several different breakdowns within. So I got a lot to figure out lol. And me too. I've been doing music for years and this new wave is crazy
This all came out at perfect timing, got a controller and was looking into getting fo studio but honestly thinking about trying/ starting off with this new DAW, love how you made this video showing step by step with everything as like just even a start up, I really appreciate that
aah, i just got into making soft rn and tNice tutorials is so helpful and your voice is so sootNice tutorialng btw! thanks for tNice tutorials tutorial
I was literary just thinking "what can I buy that is like the MPC studio that I can use as a VST to get that workflow for sample chopping"... then came across an ad in google for this!!!! Cool, sorted... and it's free... but it's not one of these cheap things that aren't quite what I need... it's exactly what I need... and it's free... wow!
Because I just need something for the chopping to use in Ableton... then the fact it's only 8 Tracks doesn't matter... Plus I'm wondering if you have Ableton lite you can put one on each channel and turn 8 tracks in to 8 times 8 tracks (thinking emoji)
Like you said 20 years ago it wasn't available. So in that aspect it's amazing. I was using hardware gear back in the 80's like Ensoniq ASR 10, Roland Juno 106, Akai S1100 . The good old days
Good day sir. Thank you so much for such a well made and informative video. I have a newly purchased AKAI MPK mini play midi keyboard and I have never created in the MPC Beats program. Thanks to your video I believe I can do it. You are great, thanks again. And good luck stacking and helping us newbies. Thank you Regards Robi
IMO, Waveform Free is THE BEST Daw out there on the market. The things u can do with a paid version of most daws, u can do in Waveform for free. Even the pro version is not expensive at all
Love it, thanks. Now I feel more convinced of MPC Beats. I was looking at Momentum and Groove Agent 5 regarding to sample chopping/slicing, too. How to actually integrate into Ableton Live? Record as audio, then loop?
Yo man you’re super dope with the reviews hahha man we’re old school. Remember ejay? Mad years ago haha times have advanced. Thanks for getting me through this mpc beats stuff I’m loving it so far.
Man thank you so much .i didn't even know about this software to i saw this video. Man i am loving it and it have alot stuff already in the software better then the software i downloaded for my mpd last year from akai.but this one they just put out is where better to me.
Thank you very much for this amazing Tutorial. I have the MPK mini new and its my first try to produce Music by my own. First I had no plan, but after looking your video I feel a bit better. Now I will try and learn :-) Good Luck and much success :-)
Free to MPC One, Live, Live II and X owners. I think also stuff like Rennosannace, Studio 2, MPC's that can be used as USB controllers. You get the serial in your account when you register your hardware.
I'm use to it since I use the MPC in standalone all the time... I hooked it up to the software and it made sense... Now I'm pretty decent with it in other DAWs.
Only problem that I have with the mpc software is. When you select the vintage mode in the earlier versions you were able to adjust the settings now I don't see that anymore
THANKS you are the best your tutorials are ALWAYS solid and the way you breakdown the use of this plugin IS absolutely FIRE 10 STAR'S for you just subscribed to your channel keep up the good work bro I really appreciate it peace
I foolishly installed it even though I have an MPC One which comes with MPC 2 software. Reason being I thought it might offer something new like more plugin synths etc. But seems like it is really no different?

how do i import a sample and spread it across the notes?
I was wondering also how you stop the sounds for the modes you was saying
Can you use mpc beats offline?
*"If I could have had this, probably when I was like 20, I would have been a billionaire"*
I read this as I watched it
Good old Hit Boy 😂😂😂
rofl
I'm 48 and a hardware head I saw this and fuk tht mpc one return
keep dreaming lil man
Never was interested in MPC workflow....up until they said free.
lol welp time to dive in
Ave Mcree big facts!
😂📠📠📠📠
I bought the software years ago when 2.0 was released, just because I'd always wanted an MPC and wanted to see what all the hype was about.
Today, I rarely use the MPC software. I don't really regret buying it, but I wouldn't have if I could have gotten this for free. 😆🤷🏻♂️

They did it to extend sales of controllers. Good move.
My guess is because of garage band and a lot of people already own expensive equipment
Best tutorial on MPC Beats yet! The MPC Beats Academy was confusing, yours wasn't! Good Work Ave, they should hire you at MPC.
It didn't work for Me, the software glitching to much.
I just bought my akai 2 weeks ago, been watching every tutorial on Earf and havent learned shit...I just learned so much more from this video. Thank you man!

How well did it work with studio one?
@@HopetonHodges grate and easy setup only issue wish I could adjust the GUI
I've been obsessively sampling things and passing them through MPC beats and throwing them in Kontakt. And also making impulse responses of the reverbs. Shits fun.
Been on it and love it. Had a smooth workflow with my MPC live 2. Great video bro stay blessed!
definitely dope. Might even grab an MPC controller now

I figure I'd do a video like this first before having fun with it. Give him a chance he's a new channel.
@@AveMcree you the truth champ.
I watches few video's how to use mpc beats. Im super beginner and only You explained it really well. I like to say thanks You.
Thanks for the run through. Looks like this will do what I want to do. Can't wait to show students how to use this!
I have the MPK mini and it works just fine, with pads and all - thanks a lot for the vid my man.
So us old heads about to have a army youngsters!
and that's how I want it to be so we can educate them on hip hop history.
Thanks for this post. I got the software and even with the beginners tutorials, I felt like I was missing something. Your explanation for the startup and adding sounds was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for the video.
Finally, a basic yet super helpful tutorial for a beginner... Appreciate it!!!
Akai makes me glad to have been along for this journey. They’ve come along way!
I compared your videos compared to the ones that the developers came up with and I must say, you are much more refined with your explanations and demonstrations. You've earned a new subscriber cheers!
2 years later still helping noobs out! thanks.
im glad i came across this video ive had my mpk mini for years and never really got around to setting it up with anything i just got it going now good video
Got it installed. I've been seeing the smaller controller on FB marketplace for pretty cheap.
I"m in, dude. I can't wait!

I don't have any problem!

Visual learner . I just saved all ya just did in my brain. Thank you man.. this helped alot .
I'm used to making a song a certain way but in different ways. But I have a certain structure. I like to see the entire song... like having all 80bars and then I have several different breakdowns within. So I got a lot to figure out lol. And me too.

Shay Jones I am too, was getting close to buying FL studio then I opened up youtube an first video I see, saved me 200$
Hello Ave Mcree, Sir!! I like your presentation style; you are very detailed, and your workflow is smooth. Thank you for sharing this! :-)
Thank you sooo much! I was so confused with this I just bought the akai mpk midi and didn’t know how to work the software, your the best man😃
Very nice move for AKAI, thanks for sharing the news!
Thanks Musician Paradise... Looks like we can reach a bigger audience with this.
@@AveMcree exactly!
aah, i just got into making soft rn and tNice tutorials is so helpful and your voice is so sootNice tutorialng btw! thanks for tNice tutorials tutorial
Ave this is Absolutely amazing all my plug-ins load up on the new MPC software this is like a dream come true thank you for the web link
this is the best news of the year mate ! thx akai, thanks to you for sharing this video :)
I was literary just thinking "what can I buy that is like the MPC studio that I can use as a VST to get that workflow for sample chopping"... then came across an ad in google for this!!!!
Cool, sorted... and it's free... but it's not one of these cheap things that aren't quite what I need... it's exactly what I need... and it's free... wow!
Because I just need something for the chopping to use in Ableton... then the fact it's only 8 Tracks doesn't matter... Plus I'm wondering if you have Ableton lite you can put one on each channel and turn 8 tracks in to 8 times 8 tracks (thinking emoji)
Great tut bro , still used it in 2023 here in the netherlands. Gonna check if you have more on mpc
I knew exactly who to go to for this MPC Beats tutorial
first on deck ,the best free daw ever
How did you pull up what you called "the Splash Screen"?
Like you said 20 years ago it wasn't available. So in that aspect it's amazing. I was using hardware gear back in the 80's like Ensoniq ASR 10, Roland Juno 106, Akai S1100 . The good old days
Good day sir. Thank you so much for such a well made and informative video. I have a newly purchased AKAI MPK mini play midi keyboard and I have never created in the MPC Beats program. Thanks to your video I believe I can do it. You are great, thanks again. And good luck stacking and helping us newbies. Thank you Regards Robi
I was one of the first to download and install it didn't work at first but I sorted it out, working fine.
You're videos are always so good bro :)
Dope video thank you for explaining it mines getting here this week!!!
Finally got to play with this and it's dope. I used to work with my MPC2000XL, so this was an easy leap.
It is remarkably good for the price. It has a lot of capabilities.
IMO, Waveform Free is THE BEST Daw out there on the market. The things u can do with a paid version of most daws, u can do in Waveform for free. Even the pro version is not expensive at all
Question: Do you have a video of what are the basic controls to edit the piano rolls and arrangements (copy, paste, etc)? If not, can you make one?
Looks like a mixture of FLStudio and Ableton, but more FLStudio.
Looks more like just straight up Studio One
This is a good idea! Bring people into the fold! Get people wanting the the hardware units. With some third-party plug-ins this software goes hard.
or at the very least a MIDI keyboard.
just learning on the Akai MIDI and you're a huge help
Love it, thanks. Now I feel more convinced of MPC Beats. I was looking at Momentum and Groove Agent 5 regarding to sample chopping/slicing, too. How to actually integrate into Ableton Live? Record as audio, then loop?
If the Mpc was like this year ago i would of still owned one the Daw is 💣
20 years ago for me.... It would be "FL what?" lol
My MPC Live comes tomorrow. I can't wait to use it with the new DAW man
Yo man you’re super dope with the reviews hahha man we’re old school. Remember ejay? Mad years ago haha times have advanced. Thanks for getting me through this mpc beats stuff I’m loving it so far.
Saw this this morning and was like, akai is a cold piece of work, will check it out asap... oh yeah if you get a min I'd like to share a kool kit...
Man thank you so much .i didn't even know about this software to i saw this video. Man i am loving it and it have alot stuff already in the software better then the software i downloaded for my mpd last year from akai.but this one they just put out is where better to me.
Thank you very much for this amazing Tutorial. I have the MPK mini new and its my first try to produce Music by my own. First I had no plan, but after looking your video I feel a bit better. Now I will try and learn :-)
Good Luck and much success :-)
As always ..,well presented , useful, and entertaining. Was gonna dismiss this freebee, but I'm definitely gonna give it a try now. Thanks Ave!!!😎
Free to MPC One, Live, Live II and X owners. I think also stuff like Rennosannace, Studio 2, MPC's that can be used as USB controllers. You get the serial in your account when you register your hardware.
Seem like a good daw, thank for alway showing us this, love all your videos
my pleasure!
I Started to work on FL Studio 16 years ago,. damn, how time flies
Dope video Ave! I’m not a fan of the MPC software at all. The layout and design just feels clunky to me, however I know a lot of people will love it.
I'm use to it since I use the MPC in standalone all the time... I hooked it up to the software and it made sense... Now I'm pretty decent with it in other DAWs.
Good video - nice production values.
I want more videos about mpc beats😍☺
Only problem that I have with the mpc software is. When you select the vintage mode in the earlier versions you were able to adjust the settings now I don't see that anymore
Thank you brother this is what I needed. thank you.
beautifully explained for someone to get started, thanks bro
THANKS you are the best your tutorials are ALWAYS solid and the way you breakdown the use of this plugin IS absolutely FIRE 10 STAR'S for you just subscribed to your channel keep up the good work bro I really appreciate it peace
Thank you very much!!!!
MPC Beats has a very different work flow for me.
You gave me é huge help...
Thanks you always keep us up to date wth whats going on
So this is what we MPC owners already have, ok!
Yes, and now another generation of musicians can try their hands on this workflow.
RIGHT

Wish I had this option BEFORE I actually bought the software years ago. 😂
I foolishly installed it even though I have an MPC One which comes with MPC 2 software. Reason being I thought it might offer something new like more plugin synths etc. But seems like it is really no different?

It's just a limited version. Someone called it "MPC Lite", which is appropriate.
