    I really want to thank you for this video
    I have two of the Soundcraft 22 board
    I'm using two different computers with them
    One computer is running to Akai software
    The others running machine software
    You just cleared up a lot of things about that board
    Thanks again have a blessed day

    Thank you so much for the info. I just ordered me one off reverb and it’ll be here Friday. Gonna use it directly with my Maschine + and it’s 16 usb outs. And I can wait to remix things from Ableton sessions.

    Greetings mi brother, I appreciate the knowledge you have acquired, and thanks for sharing.
    I always whatch your videos, I’m new to the mpc and have a lot to learn.
    The thing is music is a creation that you create with that vibes and inspiration.
    I’m Errol from London, England.
    I’m thinking about to get the Tascam 12, it’s had some good reviews.
    I hope I can come to you for your knowledge, I am trying to learn who to play the drums and snares, I know it has a pattern to play a beat.
    The main thing is after watching your videos, you always say have fun when creating and learning.
    Give thanks mi Brother

    We have simular methods.. I run all my boards through my Tascam 2488mk2 which then drops into my MPC ONE which connects to the Tascam DP24sd. This solution solves audio input deficiencies. It also sped up my work flow.

    • @PoliPopo
      @PoliPopo  2 года назад +1

      It’s crazy and there’s a few different ways to use it but that sounds legit sometimes I just use the mixer with my MPC and feed the audio back into the MPC from the mixer it allows me to tweak everything and send it back in as a print tracker I definitely appreciate you watching
      Finding the perfect set up for your workflow can be challenging but once you got it dialed in it’s 💯

    Hi! Great vid! I bought this a few years ago, but now I have the issue with the master fader:
    only at -30db sound comes trough, only left monitor
    then it gets louder till you are at +0 / +5db. right monitor comes a bit through but is much quieter that left monitor.
    When the fader is all up (+10db), the sound comes through in left and right monitor on an equal level.
    You have any idea what is the issue with my master fader?

    What’s up good sir! I’ve been watching your videos this past week and just wanted to say that I appreciate all the work you’ve put in to make these for us. I found your channel while researching the MPC X as I’m looking to move away from the computer for music production. This video in particular has helped me understand further of how I want to build my setup. Also, I can tell that your spirit is truly in this and that’s major to me. You’ve got yourself a new subscriber bro, keep doing ya thing man.

    Is it possible to have live audio running into your DAW via usb, add plug-ins and then return it to the channel strip, all in real time? Essentialy having it function as a usb insert? (I know this would introduce some latency, but I am mainly recording synths and sequencers so its fine)
