Love it. Picked up my One a couple of days ago. Having worked with daws for so long I’ve found myself giggling like a child using the mpc. So much fun.
Sometimes I play in and record the guitar, drums, bass, keys, and spend maybe a couple weeks workin hard on a track, and sometimes on somewhere like Splice I wanna look for a vibe and kinda just sit back into it and got for a swim and see what I find, which for me most of the time is way more fun if I'm honest. Best tracks for me usually come from somewhere in between, working hard but not so much that it feels like work. Bottom line for me is I enjoy making music and I'm not about to put up walls for myself that get in the way of that, it's hard enough already as it is. Similar concept in game development, you gotta mix it up and keep it fresh as possible if you wanna see it through to the end
Nice! Thanks for your comment. I think I want to try combining some samples from splice to instruments I play into the MPC One. Seems like a good balance.
Matthew Stratton hi Matthieu first thx for sharing your knowledge. That’s help a lot. I made my first beat with mpc live. Mixing Splice samples playing the bass and guitare. It was like an exercice to learn the workflow of the beast. So I try to use most of the techniques. It was a € »&#&# process. The more difficult : mixing and mastering in standalone. Loosing the bass in the mix if I go stereo. But I did a beat. So first step done. SoundCloud, Edheon, Hemingway Moonlight. If you have mixing and mastering tricks to share it’s with pleasure.
I just finished my mpc one essentials from your website a couple of days ago, really improving on how I use my one, I still re-play some parts that I might forgot when I needed, thank you for the tutorials, it's awesome!
Been producing music for around 15 years and haven’t used splice so far. I really love making my own loops with sounds I enjoy and resampling those since I have Komplete. I’ve also amassed a massive drum stash and I probably won’t even use most of those samples in a lifetime 😅
Hey, I m a relatively new user. Could you do a tutorial about muting pads and tracks and automate them. I usually build a complete beat on one sequence and edit stuff out to create other sequences as an intro, bridge etc. I get confused with why mutes stick across sequences when I want to use them as arrangement tools. Thanks !
I will see what I can do. After you make the main sequence, make sure nothing is muted when you copy it over, and copy it several times naming them as you go, Intro, verse, chorus,outro etc. Then, start muting the tracks in each of your sequences. You're mutes are per sequence with MIDI tracks, and per project for Audio tracks. Hope that helps.
Matthew Stratton Thanks for your answer ! I m referring mostly to pad mutes within tracks. Like you would do for a performance. Let’s say I have kick snare hi hat copy the sequence and then mute snare, hi hat to just leave kick in that next sequence. The mute will carry on in both sequences whether I use pad mute or pad mixer. It kinda makes sense that it does since ideally they should be in different tracks but I m wondering if I m doing something wrong cause it also seems like something I should be able to do. Thanks again for your time and the work you put in your videos.
Man, thank you for all the great videos you do! I just bought a new MPC ONE and also use lots of materials from you! Good luck and great beat this one btw... you smashed the system :)
Great track! I don't use splice, I guess it it to experience for what it is. Back in the days I support my local vinyl store and it's fun to search for some pearls.
hey Matt great video I been looking for one that shows how to sample using splice loops. The beat was dope keep making these great videos because they are very helpful.
what happens if the samples from splice doesn't register any sound once uploaded is there any way I can reupload or resolve that problem. have you faced the same problem
i cant get my mpc. one to connect to splice unless its hooked directly to my modem or router. Not My Mac Laptop or desktop. through Ethernet cable... Why?
Hi Matthew, thanks u for your videos they really help🙌💫🌟 I have some questions, maybe u can help me with this too; which kind of microphone its the best for mpc one? I got a behringer condenser c1, did I need phantom power? Bcz my scarlett die and I was thinking to buy a Blue Snowball iCE USB Mic...what you think? Thanks 🙏
Why some splice sounds won't play? I've read about that some splice samples won't play cuz splice convert them into flac... Do you have any comment on this issue?
Very interesting to see how you work on the mpc! cool workflow! thanks a lot for your help with all your videos! very appreciated! (sorry for my poor english).
I'm going to use the MPC One! I really like working on the MPC One, the screen, pad and button layout makes a lot of sense. The MPC Live II cost the same as the MPC Live MK1 did for the longest, the MPC Live just dropped in price the last few months it was sold out most places. I don't know why Akai dropped the price on the Force. It used to cost $1,500.
@@MatthewStratton Thanks for your response. Perhaps AKAI lowered the price of FORCE because it was not selling as much as expected. I was about to buy FORCE but it still didn't have an arrange view and also didn't have integration with Ableton Live. Now that it have and how I use Ableton Live I am thinking of buying an AKAI machine like this. I use Roland Cloud and Korg Legacy Collection 2 on Ableton Live and I think an AKAI MPC LIVE II or FORCE would fit very well in my music productions. But now I'm in a very big doubt. I don't know if I will buy an MPC LIVE II or AKAI FORCE. I like your channel a lot, I have learned a lot from your machines even though I don't have any yet.

@@MatthewStratton By the way, this Beat that you are making and presenting with the samples from Splice is getting really good. I hope nobody steals it lolol
Been watching and getting educated on alot of your videos. Thank you for your efforts man.... You know shits about to get real when you hear " CHECK IT OUT!!!!!!'
Cool. Good to hear your opinion about Splice. Do you mean I pre-planned the beat? If that is what you mean I didn't. This is the first time I loaded any of those samples into a MPC project. Stay positive.
I don't like Splice. everybody getting sounds from the same place. with that and the 808 hi hat sound people wonder why so much music sounds the same. I will never use it. it would be a lot better if people searched for and created sounds themselves. and that goes for soundsdot.com too. a lot of people creating the same type of track. whatever.
I feel you on sounding the same. I use it because I know for sure they’re royalty free and only got to deal with the copyright of solo’d sounds if one of my tracks gets recognized. Anywhere else you’re pretty much guessing or hoping for the best
Love it. Picked up my One a couple of days ago. Having worked with daws for so long I’ve found myself giggling like a child using the mpc. So much fun.

I can definitely see a difference with your whole vibe when making music. I hope you do more vids like this. Looks like it is therapy.
Yeah man, I need to make more music. :)
Bro…. Juts grabbed the MPC and I’m loving these vids. I’m new to this and you are helping significantly. I will be liking all these vids

Sounds awesome 👌🏽 bruno mars type vibe
I luv it mane the track is hot splice is dam good idea because of u I. Going to purchase Mpc 1i wasn’t sure at 1st I am now keep it coming dude!!!!
Appreciate that, MPC One can do a lot. Have fun!
Using MPC 3 now on Akai MPC One and it will not load or play all my .FLAC files anymore from Splice - Akai please fix this soon! 😭
🔥🔥🔥
you need to mention about key matching
Why some splice sounds won't play? I've read about that some splice samples won't play cuz splice convert them into flac... Do you have any comment on this issue?
It happened to me. I just erased all the Splice sounds and redownloaded them and it seemed to work.

Thank you. Glad you like them!
When you download an entire song in Splice is this considered as one sample? Or do you pay for all samples composing that song?
Sick.
You look like a little bit to phil Collins when he was young .. thanks for your videos 😊
Thanks for watching!
My splice samples I downloaded won't play in my akai mpc live 2 can anyone help!?!?!
Dope dude!!!!!
😎
Been waiting on this thanks
No problem 👍
Dope beat! Making me consider Splice!
Appreciate that
Do splice have mpc expansions?
splice sample didn't give me any free beats and I brought mine brand new!!! what happen?
Can you browse and purchase new sounds from splice from the mpc?
Not that I have found.
I would like to know how to link spice up to MPC beats softwareI would like to know how to link spice up to MPC beats software

No idea. I can drag them into mpc beats from splice no problem. Are you sure you have them downloaded?
Yes I just resubscribed.. I only downloaded 4 samples to start.. It didn’t work for me..
Thanks for responding promptly. I’m sitting here stuck..

Hello. Splice is good. I believe you used some loops preplanned. Cool Carlos casarez california
Cool. Good to hear your opinion about Splice.
Do you mean I pre-planned the beat? If that is what you mean I didn't. This is the first time I loaded any of those samples into a MPC project. Stay positive.
Where do you get the samples from?
You have to select them from the sounds at splice.com. You can sync the sounds you select on your mpc.
@@MatthewStratton Is there avideo on how to do this? I have an MPC live.
More, MoRE, MORE!!!!

I made fun of splice all last summer. This summer I use and like splice. Haha!
All about them fun Vibes 🎶
💯Stay up.
Does anybody know if u need a computer to get splice samples with mpc live 2? I hope the answer is no. That's the only way I'll consider mk2
With the live mk1/2 you can just connect to WiFi and sync. Wish the mpc one was like that but sadly no wireless card was added to it.

Lol those brass samples
Yo man ... kool melody...like it!!! 69

And on one post a kid says to me-"but on Splice there's millions of sounds". I said yeah and there's millions of people with MPCs and samplers too.
You can use it as a base, but you should never just dry drop it in.
The sounds might be good 10 years from now. My sample library is getting deep. I like playing my own stuff and using splice sounds.
