Mpc heads gonna watch this a few times
You ain't lying! 5 year anniversary!
Lol!
I’ve had The X for almost 4 years and it has exceeded my expectations especially coming from the MPC 2000, when I got the MPC X I went to Guitar center to buy the MPC live and some guy was bringing the X back, I took the money I had for the MPC LIVE and put it down on the X and came back two weeks later and picked it up.
Nice!
Damn I didn't know you could do that at guitar center
@@baltimega yup they had layaway, haven’t tried it lately but thats how I acquired lots of gear back in the day.
Koala is 4$ guys .
@@TheNumbasign2 Lol.
My daughter (9) said you are a great storyteller and should consider narrating a children’s book. #Dyreck #StoryTime #NurseryRhyme
Lmao!..Might have something there!..Tell her thanks!
@@DyReckProductions will do
what happened was...... sam didn't like green eggs and ham
@@thisdjdada Lol.
Little girl has spoken. Time to serve the masses. Lol. I might even tune in.
Although I don't use it personally, the X will go down in history as an absolute classic
The only classic MPC is a 2000
@@dianevrules lol. cough 60, 60 and 3000 cough :P
I dont have an MPC but the Live 2 looks dope and I'm thinking of getting one.
@@dianevrules 🤣🤣🤣
This is my pride and joy my X love this damn machine
Its a Beast!
I love my X been rocking with it since it came out.
@@Allious131 Nice.
This is hella epic you know that this is some next level stuff when it takes over half the video just to announce what you're talking about the suspense was killing me!
Lmao! Thanks!
@@DyReckProductions love your work love your energy keep it up bro!!!!👍🏾
@@brandonmoss7976 Thanks bro!
The MPC X honestly was my all-time favorite music production controller not just because it was standalone, it was so easy to use and the features were very assessable. The only reason I sold it last year was because I was out of work and needed to pay the bills.
Oh ok I feel you.
Most people use it with the included DAW.
@@HOLLASOUNDS Yup.
Dam u sold it
@@HOLLASOUNDSI do all the time because I'm always in drag and drop mode.
I was crazy about the MPC X and borrowed it for a week from my friend. The pads and the screen work was amazing, but when it was time to return it I was like okay guess I gotta go back to my MPC2000XL lol 😆. But I enjoyed it and it made me get really creative on my 2000XL so thanks Akai for the MPCX 👍
Lol I feel you.
Man.. i just love your videos. Please keep 'em coming.. I look forward to checking 'em out. Giv es me so much to chew on and laugh about at the same time. Peace man.
Thanks fam!!
This Mpc is damn near perfect.
Yup!
Bahahahahahaha. I had to laugh at that
I bought my MPCX last March 2021 and I'm loving it!! 🎧🔊🔊🎧🥁🥁🔥🔥🔥🔥🎈
Nice.
What a superb vid...and a monster of a machine I've only ever heard of the mpc one etc..
I just discovered this channel. This video is hysterical. Love it
Thanks bro!
What had happened was!!!! Love your videos brother !
No doubt fam!..Thanks!
U r totally right...there is no negatives with mpc x.. though.they should double the ram and the processor sometime in the future
That would be nice.
Its size and being none portable, I'd get the Live 2 for portability.
@@HOLLASOUNDS oh Live 2 is the best functionality wise...but I think it's really ugly compared to most other MPCs old or new.
Sorry to inform you that the ❌ has been discontinued… I just got it last month and I’m loving it‼️
@@ericdavis85 Sorry to inform you but they may not be sold directly buy Akai anymore but they are available brand new from many music stores and online. There not going to be off the market for a long time.
enjoyed this vid way more than I expected 😂 keep doing ya thing!
Thanks fam!
X is the beast for sure! Great video as always DyReck!
Thanks!
Showed A LOT of Atlanta Love with the footage and still pics.
No doubt bro!..the ATL!
After 20+ years of making music I got my first MPC (Live 2) & haven’t so happy in so long. The X is great but a little out of league with price & didn’t have speakers. The Live 2 has completely changed how Ive approached making beats for the better. Everything just snaps harder in the MPC for some reason. Thx again, Dyrek
Yea the live 2 was complete!
Me too. I got the One, and I feel like my workflow is so much fun and I’m like loving making beats again. It brought me back to life.
same for me - grabbed the Live 2 last year after 16 years of in-the-box music making on ableton. Completely reinvigorated my love of making music
I agree 100%
If you intend on using the DAW included with the MPC X you might as well buy a MPK249 for £1000 cheaper for the exact same work flow. Same pads, same buttons, same DAW as Free MPC Beats.
Exactly! I had the 2000xl and 1000, now own a Live 2 and am 😍. Akai is so thoro, just get that screen to tilt and we coolio. Thanks DyReck!
No doubt fam!
I bought my Mpc x from the Akai rep at my Guitar Center for 1100$ open box. Still had the plastic on it and it was never registered before in the box with everything. It was One of the best purchases I have ever made. This machine allows me to make what I have heard in my head all my life. I must go back and thank him when I visit Seattle next.
I feel you.
I WENT BACK AND THANKED HIM.
@@RicoN.glacius Datz a Bargain dam
Wadda steal!!!!
No Complaints here. This the beast. The GOAT machine. Great video.
Thanks bro!
I’ve had the X since 2018. Before that I was on the 4000 since the mid 2000’s. The learning curve kicked my ass a little bit, but once I got it…I GOT IT! Lol! I don’t see Akai topping the X anytime soon. The 2.10 update was icing on the cake. It felt like getting a new MPC all over again. Dope video…as always. 🙏🏾💪🏾
Yeah I got the One..And your right the learning curve was a lil different.
Great videos man. Awaiting the MPC One WHHW video. Best bang for the buck device available.
I feel you.
🤣🤣🤣👊🏾👊🏾 love your videos bro.
Lol. Thanks fam.
Great as always. I couldn't afford the X so I bought the Live. Wish I had known the Live ll was coming out with CV. I was a little peeved that my sales guy did not tell me when it came out about 4 months later. They must have known. Anyway not buying to much from that place anymore. Thanks again.
I do believe that the sales guy probably didn’t even know himself that a Live II was coming out. Lots of people didn’t know until Akai officially released it.
Uargh that's life mate xD
No doubt bro.
They're not supposed to tell anyone or leak the news early. So don't take it personally. They prob even didn't have the news at that point, and even if they did, it's not like they'd say, "Hey, don't buy this model"…because of course they're supposed to move the old stock first. Akai is not like Apple in that they'd announce that "We'll tell you what's coming later" which might give you a hint not to buy the old stuff as new stuff may be close.
Great video!!! I bought my X in 2020, and was very happy with it, but it got even better in July 2021 when the 2.10 update dropped. The only thing that could have made your video better is if you would have mentioned the 2.10 update. More features. More effects. More built in synths!!!!!
Thanks fam!..Yeah the update was crazy!
So anyone else remember watching those Zaytoven videos of the mpc renaissance?
Yup!
Great video. Love my Live 2. Gotta use it more lol.
Thanks fam!..The Live 2 is Nice!
I love my MPC X!
I feel you.
I’ve had the MPC X since 2018 and this is hands down the best all in one machine to produce on,With each update it gets better.
I feel you.
very good video - well done with nice production values
Thanks fam!
Mpc’s are awesome and I feel like they still have so much potential
No doubt.
Great video man.
Thanks bro!
Just Bought the X 5 Days ago 💯 Still have my Live II and Love the fact I don’t need to be plugged into power!! And the Speakers are 100% useable, But man this X is just premium luxury and has everything you would need to make any type of sound rather for television or just music There’s not anything else you can do to this ,the most would be them add more ram other than that what else could we ask for? I just thought if they put an FM radio built-in but that’s pointless you can just sample FM radio from your phone! into the inputs this thing is complete!! and with the new update my goodness.
Yeah the X is dope!..It basically gives you every thing you would ever need in a sampler.
Please please please do the Rolad 2480. What had happen was...lol love it...
No doubt fam..Wrote it down Lol.
Late to the party I just got my MPC X a few months ago but it’s a hell of a party lol. The 16 Q links and huge tilt-able touch screen alone puts it way ahead the rest. I have no cons about it & doubt I will ever get rid of it.
No doubt I feel you!
X-Cellence! love these vids!
Thanks fam!
$200 dollars a blade??? My Lord🤣 ...and that’s why I love your channel Bro.
Lmao! Thanks!
Oh shit. Too soon? :) Great video as always, my man!
Lol Thanks bro.
I agree, King of the MPC’s.
I don't see a sampler beating it right now.
Not the king of MPCs GTFOHSB with that bs
Great video. I heard a complaint about the mic inputs not working though.. even after returning and receiving new unit.
Oh wow..Ok I didn't know that.
That was probably a one off cause I never had an issue and also these are the mothership of mpc I'm sure the whole community would be making noise if that was an issue, and their not making noise. Trust me the mpc community is a powerful voice 👌 🙌
The mic input part of the MPC X is not just straight forward plug it in and you hear something. It's just like a daw where you have to assign the audio input to the track you want and arm to record. Also having your knobs set right because it's like the top right of the MPC X is like a audio interface. I had the toughest time wrapping my head around it. I thought the XLR input was faulty. Then when I did it I was like ohh okay.
@@THA-REAPER Thank you.
the only thing with MPC's is when i sit down in front of ableton i can make pretty much exactly the sound thats in my head whereas with the MPC i end up with the version of the track that the MPC wanted to make. apart from that i love it.
Yeah. Really hard to learn mpc. It has really strange architecture where you can get to places from 3-4 different spots. It doesn't make any sense until it does. I miss gui song mode, but once you master the art of copying sequences you'll be faster and faster. I'd say at least 50% would be spending time into arranging your library. If you're experienced producer you probably have your library already. 10 vst max, maybe few kontakt libraries etc. I personally sample my own keyboards and right now I struggle to convert my legacy samples into akai format. What is really cool is ability to autosample. Not everything works automatically, but most stuff do, so you can fire your mpc in controller mode and autosample specific patch or even full orchestral library from your kontakt. I was digging old akai libraries and I would say most of it is thrash, mostly east-west ,spectrasonics stuff worth your time, and probably tried golbaby 808/909. Once you spend a week finetuning your library, you'll be very fast with mpc. Also I think you need modi keyboard to really open up mpc.
Again mpc has 3 or 4 ways to do same thing. Ableton has 1 or 2, but is extremely modular. Mpc is anti-modular. Super rigid structure, but with a lot of shortcuts.
I loved my mpc but eventually realised I was using it exactly the way I did Ableton - just with all the restrictions of the mpc, on a small screen with limited tracks, synths and effects. I couldn't see the point. Now my mpc is leaning in the corner and I'm loving Ableton again.
@@robinr22 well said mate, i feel the same. working with the mpc feels very limiting to me. i will be trying to use it just for live sequencing instead from now on. i do like the sound overall and am trying to make it fit in somewhere.
Great video!
Thanks fam!
Capleton "Wings of the Morning", damnnnnn what a jam.
Lol Yes sir!
Well done video 💯
Thanks bro!
I have the X and Live 2. I love them both. !
Nice!
The Champ is Here!
Lol Word!
Can’t lie I’m loving my live 2
I feel you.
Yessir! Wherever I go, my MPC X is always there with me. I could not ask for a greater machine for making music, the X is the ultimate groove box/sampler/drum machine/sequencer/controller/DJ Tool/Sound Module/recording interface/DAW…. Damn! What a beast and truly a fantasy come to life. 😭😭🙌🏿🙏🏿👏🏿✊🏿💪🏿🦾🫀
Yup.
Ayo quick question am i good to take my mpc x thru TSA?
@@Fuegokama Wow good question..
Love my MpcX,use it just about every day. Hopefully they will upgrade to hard drive streaming, like they have with the Force👌💯
That would be dope!
My buddy has X, and Live, he saw the speakers on the ii and wants one. The two is the "in between" once you work one, u understand em all...
The Live 2 looks real nice.
Having a squad like that must be nice!!! And that setup is clutch. Big ass cases for big moves. If there is no elevator it’s extra!!!
Lol True!
@@DyReckProductions How in the heck did this comment from Nick’s video end up under an MPC X video? WTF RUclips?
@@PhiMobileSounds Lol Oh wow!..Crazy!
MPC X -- The MV 8800’s. Illegitimate step son 😂😂😂
Lol..
Was just about to say that thank glad I wasn't the only person who peeped that
We need Maury for this one. It halfway looks like an Mpc of the past. Momma’s baby papa’s maybe 😂😂
@@mont-doggBeats LOL Facts
I got the 4000 and coupled with a MPK249 and Mac Mini M1..😮!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥it’s just another level. The fact that the 4K is future proof with Digital i/o usb and you can change the screen to led and put and NVME drive in ic CRAZY!😂😂😂😂.. but the X is Nice too!😊
I feel you!
yo i know you dont usually do this but can you do a review on the yammaha aw 4416
Thats actually a good one..I have a korg D16..Alot of the old school recorders dont get too much love since daws took over.
I have the MPC Live 2 and it has changed my life and production period, I was FL Gang 4 Life until I got one of these and I never looked back at a PC for nearly a year, I only use my PC now as a sound module and complete all beats via standalone mode with this MPC from the gods, if you saw no complaints in this video it's truly because Akai has crafted something using black magic, the only complaints this machine ever has is very rarely it may crash after a major update but then Akai fixes it with the next minor update and we get back on track, the complaint is how long until I make some more 2 minutes from now. If you're mad about the price let me tell you it's beyond worth it in this case, go-to Zzounds or somebody and get one today. Took me a year to get one because when the Live 2 first came out it immediately sold out for that long, finally got one and haven't been disappointed yet, must buy period and works better with software if you need more sounds which it can store on the MPC with it's autosampler or you can simply use the looper function and keep it moving, endless possibilities
Yeah..Give it a couple years more and they'll be putting the X up for like 3gs on ebay Lol.
@@DyReckProductions I saw that yesterday 😂
@@drebone1986 Dang Lol.!
I really consider to make this the new center of my Studio, after 25 Years working with DAW. Cause:
It has it all...except distracting facebook, youtube and the "other" hub ;-)
Lol I feel you.
I saw Kanye using a live 2 so aside from my personal appreciation and love of my mpclive2….seeing ye use it reaffirmed my decision
@@ezskreet lol why. All his album beats are made in daw by his ghost writers. Last time he probably made his own beats on hardware was asr10 like 20 years ago.
the mpc x is one of the best sampler/drum machine any producer can ask for !!!! great video as always !!
$200.00 for each wiper blade lol !!!!!
Lmao!
Dope
Thanks!
@@DyReckProductions 🤝
Luv my MPC X!!
I feel you.
LOL Windshield wiper blades had that happen but I had blades in the truck !
Lol I feel you.
Talk about the mpcx se converters vs older machines
Thats a Dangerous topic right now LMAO!!!
Still not in my budget but I am getting the X. Til then Im rolling with the Renaissance til the wheels fall off (at least the jogwheel)!
Lol I feel you.
Got the MPC one + 1tb SSD + mic'n Mixer for 700 €
@@puppetmasternostringsonme8293 Nice!
Thanks for these synthesizer sampler drum video's. Really cool. 2 synth sampler devices that I think would be interesting too are the Roland VariOS and VP-9000. I think they were the predecessor of the V-synth in some way but not for long in production. At the time the DAW's and softsynths became popular and pushed hardware to the background.
wow what a beast.
Yup.
I would have never had bought the NI Maschine in 2009 , if Akai had come out with the MPC X first . But of course I bought the MPC X right away, when it came out , in 2017.
Lol I feel you.
I just realize how much I am waiting for your next ridiculous, but genius comparison.
With the McDonalds one, followed by the wind-shield-wiper-blades for 200$, you have surpassed you again. You, Sir, gave an "all-weekend-in-the-studio-because-of Mondays Deadline" working producer the laugh I needed right now!
thanks, and as always, sending lots of bro love from Germany!
These videos are so great beyond just the wonderful information and history provided.
I always have such good chuckles and end them in a better mood
It's kind of like when.........
Lmao! Thanks fam!..I appreciate it!
@@locdogjr Thanks bro!
I don't see how it gets any better. But I know it will.
Lol no doubt.
Toomp is a legend.
Yup.
I am waiting for the MKll. I hope it’s coming soon.
Lol..No doubt.
Akai blew the game away with this!!! Jordan Status!! GOAT
Yup!
I got mine B-stock on the reverb site early December few months ago. Never heard of B-stock before...but basically it was brand new, plastic film still on it. Only paid $1800 for it. If I really looked could've got it for $1500. I bought on impulse because my computer kept updating all the time and taking forever to load. Thought about buying another PC...said nope lol. FedEx guy left it out in the open and it had a big letter Akai outter box with the real box inside...sat outside for 5 hours supposed to be signed. I was pissed. Luckily my wife bought it inside or it would've been 10 hours outside.
Wow 5 hours!!!..I would body slam the FedEx dude next time I saw them Lol.
I had a similar experience. I couldn't believe the FedEx guy had the nerve. I even had a note on My door saying "FedEx, I am home." with My front door slightly cracked. After a while of waiting to hear the doorbell or a knock, I checked the updates and it said "delivered" I was like "What?!" My package was laying in front of My house out in the open.
@@TheManInCommand Thats crazy!
I wish they had other color options for the X.
That would be dope!
2023 Supreme and Kirk State be getting busy on the MPC X.
Oh ok dope!
make a vid on the synthstrom deluge!
Oh wow! Thats a good one..Gonna put that on the list.
Kamikaze 💥💨🔥
Lol.
I wanted and still kind of want a MPC-X, but what had happened was……..that price! I settled on the MPC Live and later, the Akai Force. Oh, don’t forget the weird product placement. I remember seeing the MPC-X on a show about a year before it was released. I’m sure you can Google it.
I got to check that out..The Force is pretty nice though.
Yeah I had the Touch the I dumped that for the Live (used) then to the Live Mikita retro (new)
Oh ok cool!
💖💖💖
Thanks fam!
But stable midi sync like jjOS era come a bit later after release… got Ableton link almost, right?
Oh ok.
Greatest of all time bow down ! Lol
The X is Crazy!
Nice Machine ~a little buggy and Glitchy but nice machine..
No doubt.
I like the power point presentation lol
Lmao!!
I have a Live 2. I'm waiting on AKAI to release an MPC X with double the RAM and processing power so it can run VST instruments in standalone.
Would be dope.
Yes I'm waiting on this feature also.
That would be nice.
wonder if Akai scrapped the sampling keyboard, i figure it wont have all the features of the X.. most likely a One with some added features and extra outputs and will be priced between the Live and X..
I think a sampling keyboard from Akai would be dope..But I think they feel they might not sell that much.
We'll have to find out at Summer NAMM '22. There wasn't a Winter NAMM this year.
@@thablackkat9905 Oh ok cool.
I somehow doubt they'll make a sampling keyboard ever again. It makes more sense to make something like the MPC Live with the ability to plug in a MIDI keyboard.
If the world of gear has taught me anything though, it's to expect the unexpected. Things come back around in fashion
@@rorz999 I feel you.
NGL I was a little pissed when the MPC dropped like 2 months after I bought an octatrack and there was no way I was gonna be able to afford the MPC-X
Dang!
I love my X. But I got the live 2 and I love that too
Lol I feel you.
The Live 2 is best based off the price and it's portability
I see the mpc x is 5 years old now. Is there anything newer or better? It’s my first mpc of any type.
Idk..Akai always got updates..So they keep it pretty current.
It’s a slick machine, but the aesthetic reminds me of a generic bro gaming computer.
Lol.
I don't need it, but I want it BAD!
Lol I feel you.
Lol he said the pink houses. EAST NEW YORK!!!!! 👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥
Lol Word!
After watching this video........ i think...... i have a look on this machine... :D
Its a dope product!
MPC X still running strong. And still NOTHING comes close.
Well, here's my 2cents AKAI...There is still a list of things you are dropping the ball on with the MPCX but let's start with the ability to run 3rd party plug-ins... can we get that.
That would be nice.
dude giving away free dope sample packs at the pink houses 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Brooklyn stand up 🍷🙌
Biggups ENY
The Capleton reference...lmao
Lol No doubt!
MPC X is what the modern MV8800 should have been but roland dropped the ball on that.
Yeah..Roland did drop the ball.
I hated the Renaissance (buyers remorse, got rid of it shortly after purchasing). So I was crazy amped when the X came along. Not only was it good it was better than I anticipated and Akai has done amazing with the updates (we wait like it’s Christmas….hint, hint Akai)I love it so much I have gone on the purchase the Live and replaced it with Live II.
Yeah the Live 2 is pretty dope.
Why u hated the ren? I still own it
👑👑👑👑👑
Lol Pretty much.
