I just bought a mini mpk3. Everytime I hit a key it repeats its self. I’m not able to hit a full chord with out it repeating. Any settings I can use to change this
@@rudypiedra9131 yeah that's an easy fix , the button labeled NOTE REPEAT must be on for you , it's back lit red , and when it's ON the tap tempo button flashes , does just toggling NOTE REPEAT to off fix that issue ?
I have to thank you for literally being the only source I could find on how to get this damn editor software working... Shame on Akai for making this such a convoluted process... going to their website is absolutely no help at all, and without your video I don't know how anyone would ever figure out how to install the proper editor software. Thank you again, a true lifesaver!!!!
i have owned a mk3 for a year and just found out i could do this. after going thru the hell that is getting the software, i was greeted with confusion. this helped a lot, it will make me use my midi much more! much love
Worst software I have ever used in my life. Inconsistent model numbering, naming sets the stage for massive confusion from the start. It's pretty much guaranteed that the version of software being reviewed doesn't match the version that the viewer has.
I am completely brand new to all of this technical stuff. I always played guitar and drums and bass and stuff but I've never tried recording myself or making beats and messing with the tech stuff and I've gotta say this video has helped me out. I'm still confused a bit on what EVERYTHING exactly means but it has helped me get a good ground basic of what everything is. Thanks man
Thank you Matthew Stratton for taking the time to make this video, it was very informative. I don't usually watch anything over 10 minutes long, but this was full of good info. So, again thanks.
Absolute life saver thank you for this extensive tutorial wow. Just bought the MPK mini and this helped me so much in mapping with my ableton live set especially with channel seperation and CC mapping.
What happened to the Pad CC's mode of Momentary/Toggle? That was one of the great functions of the MPK MK2. And it would have been great for the Absolute/Relative option to reside wholly on on the MPK. That would mean the Relative mode would have each knob store the current values onboard. Changes to knobs would be stored so that onboard program changes would not loose the knobs previous values. That would solve any issues of synths not having the relative option built in. Matthew Stratton, if you hear anything like this in the works, I would like to know.
Man, thanks so much for this vid, I was really floundering trying to figure the damn editor out, but you laid it all out so well. I’m now actually enjoying my mpk mini instead of cursing it out…having a blast rocking out on my custom drum pad setup that makes sense for ME! Thanks man!😊
Thanks for this video - the Editor software ranks pretty low on the "intuitive" scale in my opinion. Appreciate you taking the time to show how it works.
For anyone who isn't seeing any response in the Midi Monitor when pressing pads/keys. Try another USB slot, I think you need USB 3.0 or something, idk. Atleast when I plugged mine into a different slot it worked 👍

Good video, not too long. It would be very cool to have a musical example of live use with annotations naming the function being applied in real time. This would reinforce the concepts given. Thank you.
Phenomenal video! not a second wasted. Really new to this whole thing and this has helped clear some things up (i will probably re watch it a thousand more times lol). Excellent content, already subscribed and liked
Thanks for the vid, super helpful! I just upgraded from the mpk2 to the mpk3 and learned there's no option to have the pads set to toggle anymore!!?? This is a bummer when using the pads for transport controls.
Hi Matthew, really detailed video on the software. But I have been constantly facing one issue with the pad mapping on the CC mode. I cannot seem to use 'Toggle' for the Pads to use it for looping. This was available on the mk2 though. Is there a way to do it on mk3? The mk3 software is just missing the Toggle/Momentary option for the pads.
Thanks for the great in depth video's on the MK3. I have seen some pretty bad ones (even with almost 500K views) that completely miss the point. For one, just the quality of the pads and continuous controllers in combination with the 8 programmable banks make this a steal at that price. Secondly, this keyboard is a particularly great partner to all those MPC One and Live owners out there. Interposing the MPC One between this keyboard and my analogue synths also makes up for the missing midi out option.
wonderful explanation Matthew, could you please let me know how you Setup a pad can change the track in MPC beats, it will be useful while playing live. and I would like to play the pads with different samples and keys with other instruments at a time. how to achieve this?
Hi Mathew, would you consider making an editorial devoted to the CC capabilities. Everything I've seen online is a "starter review" and I feel like I'm missing some of the capabilities of the mpk mini using CC. Thanks!
Thank you for this really helpful tutorial! I've gone through and made my own program with the CC's that I think I'll use the most. My question is how do I make this sync up with Logic? Do I have to re-map it in Logic all over again? And do you know if there's a way to create a map preset I can save so I don't have to redo it in each new project? (except for CCs I add as I go, of course)
Hello! Your videos always help a lot! Thank You! Can you provide detailed help on configuring the Akai MPK mini MK3 for Reason Studio? Could this be difficult for others? Help if you can!
Hi Thanks for the video but I have a question.

I'm using MPK Mini Mk3, Program Editor and MPC Beats. Cheers Simon
They ones that came with it should be on your computer when you install it. At least I used to see them when I was making this video. You just got to load them up in the software.
Great video, in-depth but easy to follow, very much appreciated! Was having a really annoying issue with my pads being sent to the wrong channel and this helped fix it. Liked and subscribed!

I cannot believe Akai omitted momentary and toggle modes from the pads inside the Editor. I mean apart from that this controllers kicks ass but without the toggle mode is a total deal breaker. I try to contact Akai about this but they have not included mk3 on the gear that you can ask them about . Has anybody found a way around this?
@@ashwinseetharaman6711 Nah there is no way around it. I sold mine and i sticked to my old mini mk2. What a stupid thing to do Akai. The mk3 is far superior than the mk2 in all others aspects...
@@purpleheart69420 well i sold the mk3 and kept my mk2 cause it does momentary mode. The pads on mine are even worse for finger drumming although i dont finger drum that much. Yep these are shit....no way around it. From what i gather only the ones on mpk 249 are quite good
Do you have a file that I could import? Love your work. So I was just wondering something : I programmed some midi for Traktor pro. So stoked about it. It saved me money on a dj controller. But now it doesn't work at all in Mpc software. Not well or near well. How do I keep them separate?
is there a way to set up the arpeggiator to receive its bpm from Garageband? I've see videos showing how to change the settings to external for various DAWS and they all seem to work except when I do it for Garageband there is no arpeggiation or any sound at all.
Great tutorial! But I have a quesiton. I have Arturia Analog Lab 5 and using mpk mini mk3 to control it. I found a way to control parameters with mpk mini's knobs but couldn't find a way how to pick up knob from new presets values. For example, when I use knob1 (cutoff or brightness) for a preset and leave it on 127 and switch to next preset on Analog Lab, mpk mini does not get the info about which value knob1 should have before turning the knob. Mpk mini acts like its still using the last value which is 127 but the new preset im in has 60 or 50. How do I solve this? without this endless encoders does not mean anything Thanks for your help
HI! I have a problem with my Akai MPK Mini Mk3. as a program for composing music I use fl studio, the problem I encounter is that the keyboard keys must be clicked firmly. Is there a way to change the sensitivity of the keys and gently click them while producing the same volume? I hope you will answer me. Thank you . PS: Congratulations for the explanation, great!
I know this is 1 year old video, but f it, I’m gonna try it… There are 127 choices of how pads and knobs could be set. Is there some kind of list out there that shows which specific notes are attached to these 127 numbers or I got to find it on my own through experimenting and trying? Haven’t seen anything like it and I assume it would really help me out. Thank you!
Hi, I have a question...been through everywhere the internet but can't find any answer about this and I hope you can help me......I'm new to Akai mpk mini 3 and Ableton. I'm not sure how the cc mode will function. Im trying to set my drum pads to arm a track on Ableton and was able to map it as to arm a track. However, the moment I release the pad the arm button will be unarmed. it will only be armed when I'm pressing the pad. (i feel that the pad still function as a note rather than a control) Please help! Thanks! more power!
can you share the link to the Mk3 editor? I cant find it anywhere update: found it through a reddit post. is freakin hidden in advanced software in the mini app manager

Hello, i followed your video how to set up my Akai mkp mk3 mini and i download everything but i cannot figure it out why no sounds at all. I wonder what i miss. Please let me know thank you.
Do you know how to change the velocity of the Pad's? I tried it and have no idea...dont't want to have them always on Maximum. Would be great to have the Groove and Volume at one after hitting and recording the drums. Thank you! Adrian
How do the numbers-CC, PC, etc-relate to a DAW? Your video makes a presumption of prior knowledge. I for one, am clueless on step by step how to use the features you mention.
I don't understand the K knobs , if I use mpc beats the knobs all work and are what they say on the keyboard. I go into Abelton and they don't do anything ? I just want them to do what they do stock
I am completely naive when it comes to using the mini and the software it comes with. As a complete newbee, it would be easier for me to understand what you are talking about if you were providing sound samples...sound is essential to learning anything with music...so, if you could provide a different type of tutorial, using sound samples, I would appreciate that soooooo much. Thank you.

How does one set up transport controls in MPC beats for the AKAI MPK mini MK3? I tried midi learn and setting record and play to a pad. It didn't actually work unless I slammed the pad and registered a full scale 127/127 hit. I tried all the midi learn options and none worked. Same for trying a key instead of a pad to use as a transport control. This would be really great if I could control the transport without moving back to the mouse and keyboard.
First a hail here from Brazil! Friend, how do you make the "pads" change color? Mine is your version, colors in reverse, however, my pads only turn red, I can never activate the green. Is there a key for this? Thank you and success!
I have the MPK Mini editor ver 1.05 for PC. and it does have MIDI monitor under "Tools". Also, it does not have Aftertouch on/off. What version do you have?

I don't understand the K knobs , if I use mpc beats the knobs all work and are what they say on the keyboard. I go into Abelton and they don't do anything ? I just want them to do what they do stock
I am completely naive when it comes to using the mini and the software it comes with. As a complete newbee, it would be easier for me to understand what you are talking about if you were providing sound samples...sound is essential to learning anything with music...so, if you could provide a different type of tutorial, using sound samples, I would appreciate that soooooo much. Thank you.

Essentially you just go to the settings with the little gear and click "show advance software" and it'll restart the software manager and it'll be there.
@@chironpugh162 thanks!
@@chironpugh162 thanks a lot mate. On all the web you're the only one giving an answer to this :P
How does one set up transport controls in MPC beats for the AKAI MPK mini MK3? I tried midi learn and setting record and play to a pad. It didn't actually work unless I slammed the pad and registered a full scale 127/127 hit. I tried all the midi learn options and none worked. Same for trying a key instead of a pad to use as a transport control. This would be really great if I could control the transport without moving back to the mouse and keyboard.
Does this have a Chord Mode, like the M Audio Oxygen?
First a hail here from Brazil!
Friend, how do you make the "pads" change color?
Mine is your version, colors in reverse, however, my pads only turn red, I can never activate the green. Is there a key for this? Thank you and success!
Great Stuff 💗
Thanks 😀
I have the MPK Mini editor ver 1.05 for PC. and it does have MIDI monitor under "Tools". Also, it does not have Aftertouch on/off. What version do you have?
