Ring The Alarm MPC Plugin & Quick History Lesson
HTML-код

- AKAI dropped a dub synth MPC Standalone/VST plugin called "Ring the Alarm". I wanted to do a quick walk through of the functionality & give you guys a quick history lesson. Let me know how you feel in the comments.

Having worked with akai myself. A lot of the people there are English, like Andy Mac. England is big on reggae styles. Im definitely getting it for my dub sets. Also Pete Rock did a song with Westside Gunn where he uses an actual hardware dub siren called Mac Dont Stop.
Akai MPCs were made to make music, whatever the genre. I didn't know MPCs for Hip Hop back in the early nineties. Reggae drummers and beat makers used them. It makes sense for Akai to service the Reggae/Dub community with a plugin like Ring The Alarm as a lot of Reggae and Dub tunes from the nineties were made on MPCs. I can already make those sounds with what I have but I'm still getting this
'Ring the alarrrm...another sound is dying' - Tenor Saw RIP
Well as an original soundman from 1978 to a present day 60 year-old artist 31 albums deep, and 'non-MPC' user I must say its nice to see this as an addition and an option for Reggae/Jungle/Garage/Other beat makers. On hearing the sounds they are a decent hybrid to the original dub sirens that were prevalent back in the day.
I don't make classical music, but should that prevent me from using violins in my tracks..er...no. That's the great thing about music production right now, fusing A with B with Zee thats what makes all of us unique unless you're still riding the type beat train that is, and that cool as well.
There's room for everyone with everything that's made for music - Bless up
Yes, a history on Hip Hop would be awesome! Really appreciate the time and consideration you put into these videos. Find them very valuable.
Ave Mcree, Your videos always make me happy, so I subscribed!
Thanks! I needed this
Akai didn't make this, another company created it and brought it to them..according to Akai. I ain't mad, but some people act like the MPC is only for Hip Hop and no other genres utilized the MPC.
I think those sound clashes contributed a lot to many genres. This looks cool!
I love that they made this!
No mixtape is complete without a damn pull up siren, ya si mi!
facts!
Jungle and DnB vibes all day
100!
School ‘em on the culture my yout!! Big ups Akai for this simple but dope lil synth.
Nuff, love & respect !
Just here to say this is very easy to do on any synth and you don't need a plugin for that (on a daw atleast. Not sure if there are synths on mpc)
Yooo ppl need the history lesson segments
Ave speaking of ring the alarm, we the community need you to go look at "Cassette DJ by Snapbeat" right now and hype this crazy genius Vietnamese dude up cus he's about to re-invent hip-hop turntablism for the history books
That Public Enemy slipmat is hard AF!!! 💣
Well said on the history of hip hop!
I’d love to see you tackle some history videos!!!
Actually sound pretty dope. I though it will be a gimmick but it's juicy and versatile
Raspect mi youth. Nuff people don’t know that. Thank you for that
The graphics look dope
Dunno much about hip hop culture but I think lee scratch perry would dig it ❤
Nice one
This is 🔥🔥🔥. I been wanting a dub siren and. They just cost too much. This is better than I can get sampling them.
facts
This is a dope addition to the MPC plugins,guys lets stop complaining about the Standalone Stems issue,to be all the way honest when you look at how far MPCs have come we are actually spoiled,the modern MPCs are extremely powerful and if you can't create dope beats just because you don't have standalone stems you tripping 💯Big to Dj Ave,your videos are dope.Bless
plus stems has its own team who develops that... people are buggin. you can save the stems directly to your sd card in controller mode.
I know it’s a lost cause but I hope people don’t trash Akai too much for this. It’s super simple and you can grab it for like 15 dollars, it’s not a terrible deal at all.
That being said people do realize they can create the exact same sounds on mini d/odyssey/etc by just self oscillating the filter and using EG/LFO right?
That also being said I’m going to buy it.
When I came across it yesterday I was like "I can make these same sounds using some of the fx sounds in the other plugins."
I don't knock it since I'm sure there are those who can use it and don't want to spend time making risers and other sound FX. I just don't think I'll be copping.
It says 25 euro where I live, not cheap at all
@@Drrolfski the site is having a sale. It’s 40% off with a code at least in the US bringing it down to 14.99 as a launch price,

You can replicate any feature, sound or effect of any plugin by using some other plugin/plugins. I don't know why people keep bringing up this point. Makes no sense at all. If that were the case, then all the plugin companies might as well pack up and go home. It's all about workflow. You can have a plugin that is dedicated to do one thing really well, or you could waste precious time trying to find the right combination of plugins to do what that one plugin does. That's the point of plugins. To speed up your workflow by doing one or two things and let you get straight to making music.
Bro, love your videos! I was wondering if I could request an MPC comparison video.
They have a nice lineup, it would be cool to see a comparison from you to help decide which one is best for me
Bumboclaaaaat. Bullet bullet. 🔥
I was waiting for Swiss beat song to drop!! Lol
lol dead azz
Look at the ampfreqq with Akai controller and the overlay card-beast.😤
Its really a super niche product but of people have a use for it all good, for me Im hoping the next generation of MPCs will be powerful enough to host equivalents to Serum & Surge XT, maybe even its own version of a modular environment.
School dem bredren, just got this it can be very useful to add some spice to your production.
we need more than that
Its Dope for Transition Effects Also
Didn't know you were Jamaican, that's dope
I kinda feel it - its more possibilities and who knows where future hip hop goes too
its pretty cool, lets see how creative we can be with it. we do have a whole sampler to manipulate it.
more rock and jazz would be great.
I got the benidub one... best money spent this year...
Respect due!
🤔looks like fun
this was implemented from the AVEX 1 audio torture device developed by the US ARMY years ago.
and we still waiting FOR STANDALONE STEMS
Not going to happen
Different programmers
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Blame the programmers, someone is getting paid for managing all these teams. Should be sacked. This siren noise it sounds like Akai is laughing at disappointed people, they didn’t get stems for standalone. What’s next? Farting machine for 99£?
I think they should just focus on making the os bug free because they keep adding stuff and more bugs comes with it. I got all the synth engines on iOS and hardware. Just make it do what it supposed to do well
Could be Used for psytrance Tracks with a bit more Glitch
I follow a lot of content creators who do reggae and Afro beat on the MPC. I don’t get the bias against reggae and Afro beat. Also hip hop has lost 40 percent of its share. Labels are focused on African and Latin. So this plug in makes sense
Repping Jamaican facts - I like that
my poroblem is the lack of other plugins, not the fact that this one exists. IMO they could have dedicated time to mix and master plugins.
What stopping your mix tools or you?
There’s so many plugins on the mpc for mixing and mastering it would take too long to list
Learn from the past and play in the present, A history of Hip Hop would be good for all serious about creating in 2024.
for sure
Great plugin I love it just I wish you could use it as fx as well on other sounds or plugins
Use the delay and reverb stock plugin or just use Air Delay Pro
When are they going to add a melodyne type of plug in for vocals
it would Be dope if you could just use it as a efx pluggin run samples and synth through it
You can make all them sounds in a software synth
Akai is in panic mode after the new Blipbox videos dropped
I'm dead but that's a good idea for a video
Pleeeeeaaaase! Give your MPC a little love, Ave! That thing is filthy.
If I was akai, I would would of added machine gun sounds.
Hey if you listen to Slave's Stellar Funk song from the beginning. it has the same Ring the Alarm effects .
Sounds like rise in simplistic layout and more cherry presets
I need help with my MPC One plus... I have found plenty of on board sounds/samples but it's not letting me log in to get my free plugin & it gets you real frustrated because you spend your $$$ only to get stuck & AKAI never returns calls or emails about help. I can use factory sounds as long as I can export, trim & song mode my beats. Help!
You create an account on the Akai website and enter the number that is on the back of your MPC. You may have to register somewhere else. There is now a second website where you have to register. I can't remember the name. You should normally get your plugin from there. Unless you bought the MPC second-hand and someone just kept the plugin.
We Jamaicans 🇯🇲 appreciate it 🤷🏾♂️
Wish theyd put in on the force at the same time.. whyd they even make they force?
Bro you need to zoom in so we can see the screen it’s the reason I watch Samplekings videos. We don’t need to see your hands.
Gives me.....Oldschool song: Dont stop the music. Most of AfrikaBambataa songs and Star Wars themes, and Galactic arcade vibes
Damn already full price. That intro didn’t last long.
Great video Ave,its a nice plugin,you ave,it sad that its been fashionable for a long time now,too push talented black artists to one side,and to not acknowledge them.its hard to see,but we keep our shit moving forward.peace
Mpc is not a video game player come now can they add more audio tracks like 24 tracks just for vocals for standalone.
bruh the mpc is made more for this than vocals... get a DAW
I bought it just to have it last night. Lol.
Could you could you possibly rewind and come again.
How do you install this? Im so used to updating my mpc one over the internet and its not showing up in my activation tab. 🤦🏾🙏🏾 HELP
Refresh the plug-in activation
@@sederquest I got it working but since updating firmware my paid plugins keep getting deactivated.
Been using Siren by noisemakers for years… may be time to retire it for this mf😎
Yooo
499.00. And yes the history of hip hop exists in Jamaica 🇯🇲
Can they release the standalone stems and stop effn around. Just sample Galaga and atari games for this
Here come all the cry babies talking about why they have this for stand alone and not Stems 😂
and then when it's released they will move the goal post to something else per usual
@@AveMcree ninjas waiting on standalone stems and jesus to save them wack beats... im convinced anyone complaining about stems standalone is trash.... straight basura
Atleast they released a standalone for something... 😅 stems anyone?
you smoke stems lol
Barely seems worth 15 if you ask me.
the price has to do with the multiple formats than just one plugin.. at least that's my guess
@@AveMcree word
Love the vids always Ave, but this plugin kind of sucks😂😂😂😂. Sounds very cheesy!!!!!! Thanks for showcasing it. Helped me decide to pass on it.
trash! give the mpc community what we really want stems standalone! and a 4 band eq old be awesome too akai step it tf up!
Novelty….
Your justifications for this seem a bit...corporate. STEMS for 10...a SIREN for 15?
😂it’s ok to say you didn’t watch the video
@@AveMcree nah I was there 'it has less depth than most of the already simplified mpc plugins, but software is cheaper than hardware so...'
Back around 2008 I DJed a venue that had some sketchy-ass mixer with a cheesy siren-effect button placed right where you could trigger it accidently while tweaking your gain levels. That POS nearly ruined my night and it sounded just like this one on the MPC plugin. Mad respect for Jamaican dub kulcha but I will NEVER put that sound on a track. 😭💩
the exit is thatta way 👉
Each day, i loose a bit more respect for Akai. They really seem to be digging their own grave 🤮
How????
im sure theyre sad about losing your respect clown
@@Dominant1mwmoney money money
can't justify the price on this one..
too bad hip hop died many years ago. Nas was absolutely right
Same dudes hating on this the same dudes making weak gentrified techno music
im dead bruh...... facts though
Waste of money
Mpc powerful enough to manipulate samples
Plenty of glitch and siren samples out there 🤷♂️
13 PRESETS.. Lazy. Just like FLEXBEAT, it's gonna have a lot of beats sounding the SAME. Worth $14? BARELY. Worth $30? Nope. 😮
Big ups to the JAMaiCAN peoples
one love... mash it up!
This new ring the alarm plug in is garbage
Why?
Boy this is A-1 Trashhhhh!!!
😂
it's easy to not buy it, fam
It's only trash to those who don't need it for anything.
😂
@@charlesedward117 Ashamed ? watch your mouth, I never said I needed it, but there are some out there who could use this. No matter what you or others think. Never ashamed of nothing mothf@$*a
Fairly useless for what it can do. Nothing you couldn't get by using samples or programming synths you already have
Something this simple should have been for free. This is not worth 1 buck jus sayin
