DAMN! This tutorial is amazing
Glad you're diggin it bro. Thanks for the feedback! 🤜💥🤛
Bro this the key-finding tip is great, that's been one of the major drawbacks is that I can't use other software inside the mpc to find the key, I'm sure most everyone coming here is finding that useful. I had to actually try it for myself before I came back here to give you the thumbs up and say thank you! It works and its great to stay inside the MPC and keep working.
Glad it worked for you bro! I know it takes longer than a plugin, but it's still better than freestyling it the whole beat, lol
notes, chords, scales assistance is one of the best features of One/Live. I was just tuning my kicks on electronic track. Its cool you are inspiring people to tune more to the song and really handy/simple technique!
Thanks for the dope feedback bro! Yeah it has helped me tremendously especially with basslines. I always struggled with the low registers
This tutorial is Hall Of Fame Worthy ✨‼️💎
This is so usrfull, just started producing like 6 weeks ago. Made a spedup curtis sample , and it already detected the key , and when i did what you did i got a 808 on that key, dope
Yooooo Sight! this is super helpful! Thank you for sharing!
Man! as a newcomer to MPC One and the whole MPC world this will help me A L-O-T! Actually i've been struggling with finding the key of sample yesterday, quite coincidence. Thanks!
This isn't quite as fast as software but once you get the flow down it's pretty quick. Welcome to #MPCGang!!!
As a 30 year musician you make learning the Mpc enjoyable. I am about tonget one and thoroughly enjoy your channel and explanations. #dadlife
These types of comments mean the most man. Learning these things saved my life in many ways and connected me to music in a unique way, so it's awesome that my enthusiasm comes off in these videos. I reappy appreciate the dope feedback brother, thank you.
Yeah. As a former part time drum instructor your teaching skills are great.
Keep doing what your doing because it helps
This solved a very big problem I’ve always had. Thank you so much!
Many many thanks!!! Can’t begin to tell you how helpful this was. Wow!!!!
thank you for this very useful tutorial, it's clearer for me to adjust the tone of my bass on my sample ,, thank you very much boss gang's
Needed this just got a Live2 and been banging my head on how coming from maschine..Philly stand up

Brilliant tut man - helps a lot ! Thank you for doing that! But some app doing this would be very welcome too 😅
This was actually very helpful for me bro good shit.
My Live 2 didn't come in yet so I was struggling to find a video topic this week 😅 Sometimes I have to just sit down and dissect my workflow and remember everyone doesn't do things the same way. Glad I could help bro!
You just took me a level up on my MPC beat making... Thanks man!
🙌🙌🙌 Thanks for watching bro!
I use studio One with my Live 2, I can find the Key within SECONDS using Melodyne or S1's own scale finder. No need to jump through hoops like this. I still appreciate your efforts, brother!! you're doing great
Its realy great this turtorial you be realy sympathik person thanks for you,re content.
Game changer 🙌
Great vid. very easy to follow.
🙌🙌🙌 Glad you liked it bro! Thanks for watching 🤜💥🤛
This is real producer gems.
Thank you so much!!
Great vid and greater info
I appreciate the feedback, thank you!
Cookin and servin the sauce. My fav part. This was a hella informative video homie. Im trying all this when i get home
💪🤜💥🤛
Thank Bro!
How To TUNE 808’s @ 9:40.. the whole video is a GEM….imo! Thanks YoungSight👌🏾💯💪🏾✊🏾
Brilliant, thank you so much. I have zero theory knowledge but I do have a good ear and the process you demonstrated will really speed up my MPC workflow! Cheers from the UK!
I didn’t either, then after a couple years using pad perform I’ve picked up some basics. It’s definitely a learning tool as well.
@@labandlegacy True bro. Up till now I have just been hitting random notes whilst playing my sample to try and find some that match but your systematic approach - find the root then use that to find the scale - is definately better and will make things so much quicker and easier. Thanks again my friend, blessings to you and your fam.
Thank you excellent tutorial
Thanks for watching, I'm glad you liked it.
finally I can jam with the demos and write some rock songs with the One as my drummer !! thanks man
Glad you're enjoying it bro!
Thaaank you man !!
You killed the game wit this one bruh.💪🏽 Much respect. 💯
🙏 I appreciate that bro! Thanks for the dope feedback 🤜💥🤛
Hey, there! Thanks for the video. I do the same thing when approaching finding the root... and since I also love "analog", I have a digital tuner as well. It is a Cort E205 Chromatic Tuner, and it comes in handy. Be well and keep the music alive!
Nice! How accurate are the handheld ones with samples?
@@labandlegacy Pretty well. It definitely was picking up your keys when you were playing!
Thank you sir for the video now my beats are even better 🙌 👌 🙏 💯💯💯💯
This is gold ⚜
🙏🤜💥🤛 Glad you got some value out of it!
@@labandlegacy fired up the One and was able to apply it right away! Thank you!
Thanks for the jewels 💎
Damn. EXACTLY what I need - I should have figured it out the tools are right there...I try using a piano tuner app off my phone' but mostly go off ear.... heaven sent...
It took me a while to develop the technique and I'm sure there are PLENTY of shortcuts, I've missed but this has been really helpful. Glad you enjoyed it bro, thanks for watching!
Dope bro keep up the good work 🔥
🤜💥🤛 Good looks bro
I subscribed to both you guys 🤝 great content ✊ keep em coming!
Yo, great Content! thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching bro! 🤜💥🤛
Dope piano trick!
Excellent vid bro!
Thanks bro!
Hi, what for headphones do you use ?
Excellent tip....Good lookin out.....
Thank u
Bruh! Now that is a dope hack!!!
Thank you so much for this, this helped a lot. I’m also In the mpc group on facebook
Glad it helped bro! I hope the group is keeping you inspired like it does for me!
🤜💥🤛
I felt this one
Yo I would really appreciate you doing a video on sequences, tracks, and programs and how to play them separately.. I appreciate your work and efforts and mostly appreciate you using the MPC ONE which is my machine.. I'm new to all this and honestly dont even know what a reverb is and never new what a track was or a sequence until I started using the ONE and still really dont understand.. So thank you for your work..
I appreciate the great feedback, thank you! I am working on some material for producers just getting into the MPC environment so stay tuned!
Thanks for this video man. I needed this. Although a built in pitch detection wouldn’t hurt 😅
Yeah, it would definitely make some things quicker, but it's not always accurate so sometimes it's good to have a tool that uses your ears.
making beats is already easy....we need a few obstacles to keep us on our game
BRO! Thank you so much 4 the content! I might get a grammy because of you dawg!! Best regards from Portugal
That’s awesome bro! 🙏 thanks for the great feedback and I hope you get it! 🤜💥🤛
This is a really good video
Thanks for the feedback bro!
I do the same thing! Nice video
thanks bro
dope video!!
🙏 Thanks bro, glad you liked it!
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!! AWESOME!!!!!!!!
Appreciated. One,
Nice one :) Do you know how to tune everyting in the Mpc to 432Hz and still sound good ?
love
If you have Virtual DJ it tells you the key or everything . It is free and you can use it to get the key faster and then do the rest of the process you described. Have you checked out VDJ 2021 you can isolate instruments and vocals and bass easily.
@7:00 Helped me out a lot. I couldn't find the pad perform button. 😅
Dope
You said that the F9 comes with the One and Live2. Dose it matter if this is a new or a used live2? Thanks.
Nope, doesn't matter. Once you register your serial number it will be in your account for download.
Hey thanks for your valuable tips. Quick question, how do you "pad perform" the wav 808 you tuned?
You make it into a keygroup, tune it as I showed and then hit the pad perform button on the bottom right of the home screen.
A plus tutorial shout out from NY
After 808 technic go str8 to the browser and count how many semi tones and you know rename the 808 sample best way I find to be effective
oh bru u help me a lot
🙏 Glad I can help bro!
How did you do the screen recording of the MPC? - I'd love to see a video bout that bro.
How sway lol?
can yiu ecplain what octives are n how to use em
An octave are all the keys in the scale...on the next octave the scale starts over again. That's all it is
Thats right my G, Teach
I appreciate it bro! Just sharing my hacks cuz I been too lazy to just learn my notes and scales 🤣🤦🏽♂️
Can you show how to make your own sound kit and 2.8 MPCX . Live how to write it down and how to save it Thanks
Gotchu!
If I use any electric instrument built into my MPC X it's already in key right?
I can do this exact same process using any electric piano plugin if I don't have
that expansion?
Yessir. The ones in the MPC are already in key, plugins should be as well.
bro tell me why I've had my MPC X for almost 2 years and I JUST NOW finally realized what pad perform is for! OMG! I can't believe I went that long without even taking advantage of pad perform! I always wondered why when I went into "pad perform" I would trigger a pad and nothing would happen. I realized it's meant for "key groups" and "plugins" and NOT for drum programs! HAHAHAHAHAH IM FIRED UP!
A spectrum analyzer would fit this piece 🍰
True indeed.
@@labandlegacy all and all video sure has been a big help thanks for the content 🌽
Yoyoyo Dope. I just got my mpclive. I have been using Fl Studio for 14 years and Logic Pro for 6 months. I can see how the DAW is preventing you to focus. I already have 2 Beat Albums on music platforms. Please listen to them by searching Afro tsk What They All Say. Thanks in advance for the mentoring.
What's the best way to do 808 rolls while still keeping them perfectly in key with the rest of the beat?
The original 808 I have is in key, but as soon as I go up and down the scale it's obviously NOT in key.
Basically wanting an 808 to start on the root note, go up a few notes, then come back down to the
root again. Maybe I need to just bust out my damn midi keyboard and connect it to the MPC X. I'd
rather not have to though if there's an easier way than randomly clicking pads and hoping the best.
I don't understand why there's no "PAD PERFORMANCE" mode for drums. I specifically NEED IT for
the 808 drum! I don't need it for snares, claps, hi hats, or kicks.. just for my 808s because I love to
use my 808's as an instrument, rather than always just being a bass drum. Can 808's be loaded as
key groups so I can use the PAD PERFORM?
There's a portamento section in program edit when you use a key group. Adjust those parameters and you should be able to glide the notes
#Salute...👑✨👑
🤜💥🤛
That's dope ! But I downloaded a Key finder app to my phone it works damn well and I usually hum to the track and find the note
The classic "real world" method lol 💯💯💯
Yeah but trust I still found the information you gave very valuable and I will definitely pass it along. Also I just received my MPC Live 2 today!!
Congrats bro! Enjoy!!!
Bro I can fucking hug you bro. If you reading this sight I just virtually hugged you g!!!
😂😂😂 I take it you picked up a gem in this one, lol
How do you know if you drums in key? Unlike the mpc in DAWS you can put anything in any key. Doesn’t seem so with the mpc
I'm not into the "drums in key" school of thought. Drums need to be tuned to taste absolutely, but the belief that they need to be "in key" is a bit ridiculous and more of a RUclips thing in my opinion. Adjust the semitones until they sound good.
@@labandlegacy ok cool. Thanks cuz in vids with people working in daws they are always saying to have your drums in key as well. But people never with MPC. Thanks for the clarification!
since we are on 2.10.1 now, have you found a quicker way to do this? I think that's the issue of so many complaints that can be an easy fix by akai. Just add a Tuner plug-in within the standalone and call it a day.
Yessir. There is now key detection in Program Edit and Sample Edit modes.
@@labandlegacy yeah it’s dope they have that now, but still wish they would add a tuner feature, it’s so doable lol, I don’t know why they won’t. In the times we live in now, you don’t want to lose any inspiration, by having to stop and play around with stuff, you know?
Yes! this means I can tune down to 432hz.
I really wish they'd just add a tuner to the MPC X. It's mind boggling they haven't. I'm still happy you shared this tutorial with us, but it's crazy
to have to take all of these steps just to find the key when finding the key is super basic to music production. It's like selling brand new cars
that don't have doors and me finding this tutorial is the equivalence of finding a tutorial on how I can install windows and doors on my own
but it still leaves me sitting here like.. WHY THE FUCK DOES THE CAR NOT HAVE WINDOWS AND DOORS ALREADY IN THE FIRST PLACE?!
There is a tuner bro. It's been in there for about a year and a half. There's one in program edit screen, the sample edit screen, and the sampling screen. It's a little tuning fork icon. You can also put the auto-tune style plugin on any pad or program to get the tuning info
No fucking way!? I need to update my MPC X then! I took about a 2 year break from my MPC X and have been mostly only producing in FL Studio.
I did this because I've had my X since release and there were so many features I wanted that just WERE NOT available for the MPC X so I decided to
throw it under the hard cover and leave it be for awhile knowing they'd eventually throw updates at it that would get me excited to get back into it!
Last time I did an update on my MPC was literally in 2020 hahahaha BRO THANKS! Is it super easy to use and doesn't require the million steps that
this video takes? Much love @@labandlegacy
Connecting my MPC X as fast as I can.. excited like a child on Christmas morning! Can the tuner be used in standalone mode? Hopefully! I don't care for using the DAW. I always felt like if I'm going to be in a DAW, it may as well be FL Studio where I feel right at home! @@labandlegacy
Cooking it and serving the sauce 😆 🤣
🤣🤣🤣
All the sounds that come with the mpc one sou d similar.
Did you download all the expansions that came with it or do you mean on the Tube Synth?
@@labandlegacy what do you mean download ALL the expansions that come with it.? I just plugged it in so I'm talking about the sounds that are already there on the MPC one
One time
First !
"Got 'emmmmmm!" 🤜💥🤛
Thanks for this video. I have to train my ear 👍
9:07 looks like u were doing something else, for a second...lol.
Appreciate the info bro!
😭😭😭😭💀💀💀 "Flogging the dolphin"
iamsight 😂😂😂
Good technique, but ya gotta have the ear for it! Still think MPC should have a mf key finder.
This is true, but if you can't match one note to one note you're in for a hard road 🤣🤣🤣 At the very least its training the ear 💯💯💯
@@labandlegacy fair point
facts!!! MPC needs to get with the times.
It's really not that hard to find a key of any sample when you got a ear for music like i do, otherwise training your ears will help a lot to recognize the key of a sample, it's really not that hard.
The frame rate in your videos seem off. Seems a bit jarring.
Thanks for the heads up. I'll check my render settings. I could be on the wrong framerates, plus I'm capturing to OBS so it could be a setting there as well.
Dope
🙏
