I am using 2 available input (31&32) 2.) on the Apollo console app settings i go to I/O MATRIX and set the inputs of 31&32 to Monitor L ch31 and Monitor R ch32 so now i am able to go on my mpc and when i sample i just choose input 31 and 32 so anything that my computer plays it will be receiving signal from those channels. Sorry this was a bit long but i hope it makes sense.
HELL YEAH! This is so awesome! I just got my MPC Studio, and I'm trying to learn the art of beat making. I've wanted to do this for like 15-20 years, so I finally decided to take the plunge.
Possibly the most underrated MPC out there, and at a wayyy better price than most others. I get why other MPCs are 5x the price, that’s because they are basically computers of their own, but nowadays every producer has a laptop/pc and a DAW so this is probably the best bang for your buck out there
I have to say this is extremely inspiring and how to use the studio 2 hardware. I just bought mine used and I'm already loving it! Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful tutorial!
People dont know (or aren't saying)that with this release..Our MPC Live 2, X and One's also got a software(computer)and firmware(hardware) update- v2.10.1....for 1 item though. We may not have the TouchStrip, but they gave us the Touch FX insert effect for touch screen. Its just fine on the Live 2 screen!
Yes honestly the touch affects plug in itself is one of my favorite effects as of right now on my MPC one there’s so much creativity within that plug-in itself I’m glad we were able to get it on our mpcone
Wow, you are something else on the MpC Studio I bought the MPC Studio didn’t understand it so I bought the MPCX studying that now you make me wanna jump back to the studio
@MALO BEATS I'm sure you most likely figured this out, but there is a more efficient way to put that "Tape Stop" effect on via hardware. Instead of using the Q Link method..Just press the Touch Strip button and either keep pressing it until the Touch FX comes up on OLED screen/or use jog wheel to get there. Once you are on the Touch FX screen, hold shift button and hit Config button(it is the Touch Strip button's secondary function). That will open up a menu of Touch FX you can choose from. Use jog wheel and go to "Turntable" effect- which IS the tape stop...tweak some settings (if you want), hit MAIN button to remove settings from screen (if you want) and use strip as usual. The visual on screen isn't as cool looking as actual plugin, but who cares. Hope this helps someone. Hardware for the win!
I already had you subbed, but I didn’t know you had a video about sampling on the MK2. I just got mine 2 weeks ago, and a “windows” 11 tablet. I have to learn both at the same time. Your video showed me what the other ones didn’t ,and it was so simple!!! I am going to see if I can get the user manual and highlight what you said, and watch your video again.
Yo!!! Dude congratulations on your new set up. Right now with the updates akai have been releasing. It has really made the software highly effective which I’ve been using more and more as of lately. With that being said, I feel like the studio mk2 is even more valuable now with all these new updates.
Good to see you again Fam and what a nice sett up you have there. Offcourse i have to show love and support and i wish you and the Fam also health and safety. Much love Always
Hey brother, congrats on your new MPC I’m sure you’re gonna really enjoy this new journey. I really been enjoying mine and my set up. I’ll be posting more videos with his machine since I’ve been using it a lot lately.
Thank you for this video,!!! 🙏 I will ask you though, do you know how to map the MPC STUDIO 2 to BEATMAKER 3? if you do, please let me know!! That is my DAW of choice, but I’m still gonna practice using this as well!! Thanks for giving me a video to reference!!! ✌🏾✌🏾✌🏾
New to Beat making & bought the Studio 2with a USB turntable. Is there a way to record directly into the software from the record, or do I save it on my desktop to access the sample?
Hey brother, congratulations on your new set up and it sounds like you got an awesome set up. I’ve not used the turntable. You’re speaking of, but there should be a way where you could go to your preferences on the MPC software and select the input of the turntable once it’s connected via USB to the computer once you have that selected it should pop up when you go to your sampler page.
@MALO BEATS After you make your chops in Sample edit page, you can hit the tune button(while still in sample edit)on the hardware to pitch the whole sample( your chops ) using the data wheel 0-24 semitones., then you can convert it to program pitched. Plus you can still pitch individual pads as normal.
That’s interesting I’ve actually seen that pitch knob on the sample editor but never gave it a shot I’m gonna try this out next time I’m slicing up my samples. Thank you so much for this
Great question and I’m not sure since I haven’t used a Windows computer so I would not be able to give you a solid answer but I would hope it does work fine. I will still look into it just to make sure though
Start of the next chop is impacting the end of previous chop. Is there any way to omit that problem? I wish I could load let's say full song to mpc and select several portions of that song and add them to pads
They’re both amazing machines but if you enjoy the hybrid of a computer and your hardware I would go for this one but if you like to work unplugged without having to Stare at a computer all day long I would definitely go for the MPC one. Overall, just go for the MPC one if you have the extra bucks to spare in my personal opinion
Nobody can tell you what you should do with zero information on how you intend to use it. Different needs and preferences dictate what is best for you. If you have a reasonably powerful computer with good speakers, audio inputs, and plenty of available storage space, the Studio Mk2 may be a good starter set. It and MPC 2 software can cover what the MPC One hardware covers, just somewhat differently. Which one to buy is largely dependent on what you want to do. I use my MPC One with external synths and keyboards. Something you can do with the Studio Mk2 but not as convenient for to me. The mixed hardware/computer GUI is not an an advantage of the Studio Mk2. I use both the MPC One and the Studio Mk2. The One for standalone and the Studio Mk2 for tethering. The more you need from the device, the more it makes sense to get the MPC One. If you just want it for casual use, go Studio Mk2.
Fam this video is UNDERRATED! I just got back into producing beats, new to the MPC Beats DAW, the MPC world in general (former Reason user). I've been using the letters in my keyboard for drum pads and I'm having a blast. I currently have the Studio2 in my cart, and now I'm geeked and cant wait to get my hands on this controller. Great video, fire beat, salute for the playlist. Subbed!
Hey Billy, absolutely you’re able to select your interface as your audio source and track or sample any instrument of your choice as long as it’s hooked up to your interface
@@malobeats Thank you Malo , I'm checking the compatibility of it with my macOS Monterey 12, it looks like they're still working on that , bummer . However , thank you for your quick reply.
Hey man great video, do you know how to record what you do on the touch slider on to the track permanently i only seem to be able to do it live while the track is playing?
bro...thank you...im from the 90s and miss that mpc feel...to know that the hardwear is the work..just takes me back to that era...where can i get the controller at...i have the software...need that exact piece
Yes I still have it but does not get much used in my studio since I’m usually working in standalone mode with my MPC live. By all means the MPC studio does not lack potential and it is as powerful if not even more powerful than my MPC live if you are someone that enjoys having the flexibility of your computer at your fingertips since it could do so much more than the MPC and standalone mode. I guess it which is boils down to how you want to make music, are you more of a standalone music creator or do you prefer to have the hybrid of a drum machine with your computer.
@@malobeats I have no issue with working in a hybrid situation. I guess my concern is whether or not the workflow itself is hindered. Like buttons, knobs, q-links etc.. thank you for your time and reply.
@@JCorrea813 Great questions, I feel like the MPC studio was built for a 50-50 percent workflow meaning 50% of the times you will be clicking around in the other 50% of the times you’ll be using the hardware, a good thing is that when you are using the hardware it’s going to be strictly while you’re performing and the only times you will be clicking around is when you’re doing the technical work like adding plug-ins, nudging over different midi notes etc. etc. The good news is that when it comes down to chopping up your samples you could do that strictly from the hardware which is very crucial for me at least.
It sucks that you have to use the mouse to choose chop or program in sample edit mode. On the 4K, you would just use the arrow keys to move the cursor around on a screen like that or you would use the f keys. On the MPC One or X, I'm assuming that this is where you would use the touch screen. All Akai would have to do is update the software so that the user could use a qwerty keyboard's f keys or the arrow keys and the problem would be fixed. Hopefully they'll do that in the future because it's the only thing I don't like about the Studio. Otherwise it's pefect for my needs.
Hello man, I know it's an old video but I've just bought the mpc studio and I cannot understand how to record what I am doing with the touchstrip, an automation or sth.
Can somebody help me? Even if I go to sample mode and set the slice, it won't pop up in the window where I can select the youtube option. None really.🙄

@@leirak8086 I got it working as a plugin in Ableton. Best of both worlds. I'll use it as a standalone from time to time. Traditional workflow. Thanks for your comment though.
Hi Adam, absolutely as long as you assign that slide bar to which ever parameter of your choice no matter what page you’re in it should follow that parameter even if you’re on track mute page. That’s an awesome observation though I haven’t tried that myself.
Hallo. Can you help me with one problem? When i turn on the mpc soft i have sound only in this soft. Other programs have no any sound. So when i turn on youtube it fails. If i turn of mpc beats, the sound in youtube appears. So i can, t sample straight from youtube
Hold on. That thing might work really well with a Convertable tough screen laptop because you can fold it backward and sit it right in front of the MPC for the time you would use the mouse. I would actually look like what the screen looks like on your stream. Yup I gotta have one. Thanks
I really appreciate you dropping by ensuring is valuable input and no doubt about it, this is awesome for anybody that wants to work with a hybrid set up.
Oh man, thank you so much for bringing this section up on the video. There’s been so many tracks that I’ve put out through these videos and some of them I skip them and ignore them but you just brought this one back up to memory for me. I’m working on an instrumental EP as we speak so I definitely want to dig some of these beats up and put them out.
Ok, I already have a sample in MPC and I wanted to know how I can live chop it. In this video, you're chopping while sampling. Do you have a video for the other scenario? Edit: You've answered at 7:42
I wonder why I cant see the audio coming into the mpc software as it comes from RUclips so I can see where I want to chop instead of guessing the timing. am I missing a setting somewhere? Like if I record into Fl Studio Edison it will show the wave form as it is recording sound.
Nice Video. I work with MPC X. I do my sample beats there. What I am thinking, if I buy MPC Software additionally. Is it possible to record rap audio tracks in MPC Software? Because I am writing my own lyrics and it would be great if this would be possible to have an interface between the MPC X and the Rap Parts...
can you please make a video showing us how to sample from youtube directly into the sampler? ive been trying for days! i am using a audio box 96 please!
if u dont have already get 3.5 to rca cables and rca to ts adapters plug 3.5 into headphone jack of phone or laptop and plug the rca cables with the tips into line input of interface and record audio that way or you can find add on in firefox that downloads audio from youtube or same with android phone hope that helps
Hey @AmazinMusicNYC This worked for me and I don’t know why @Malo Beats deleted my comments. This video is from UAD Channel not spamming! ruclips.net/video/Md1DjeXD-dY/видео.html
Thank you brother I appreciate your input and feedback really means a lot and yeah this is definitely not gonna be for everybody I have not use the studio black myself but this MKii has been pretty fun and I’ll definitely be using this a lot for my music just very convenient and my set up.
Thank you for taking the time and putting together this video, Malo. As usual, it was very informative. That device is a pretty cool entry level MPC for newbies to the MPC workflow and software integration. Quick question: For those who have the MPC One, X, or Live 2, couldn't you achieve the same result by using your device in controller mode? If so, I guess it's not any advantage for those that already own the newer MPC's to purchase the new MPC Studio Mk2. Is that correct? Thank you again for your dedication and work. Bendiciones!
Hey David, thank you for always taking the time and supporting the channel. As for the studio mkii it will not be replacing or doing anything different from what our MPC one does there’s no need to purchase the mkii if you already own an MPC in my personal opinion but it is a great machine for people who are just using a keyboard controller and want to upgrade to something a little more durable for beat creation with a laptop. It’s also great for people that like the hybrid of working now with the software and the hardware but that’s something that we can also do on her and Mpc one
Nice Job man, but...how did you record RUclips directly to the Sampler?

I am using 2 available input (31&32) 2.) on the Apollo console app settings i go to I/O MATRIX and set the inputs of 31&32 to Monitor L ch31 and Monitor R ch32 so now i am able to go on my mpc and when i sample i just choose input 31 and 32 so anything that my computer plays it will be receiving signal from those channels. Sorry this was a bit long but i hope it makes sense.
Can you touch on the latency aspect?
Can a MacBook Pro work with the mpc studio???
Absolutely, I have a MacBook Pro myself and that’s how I use it.
@@malobeats perfect. Yes I just invested in one I got to excited and didn’t see that info.
Thanks love the video content ✊🏽
Can the midi tracks be set to send midi out within your DAW to other VST instruments? This would be a good controller for superior drummer
Hey brotha, That’s a great question I haven’t tried them myself but I have used it with Ableton and it does read it pretty good.
@@malobeats thank you and great channel
Can I use my DAW (Ableton Live) with the MPC Studio? Or am I missing out on a lot of functionality if I don't use the MPC Beats software?
Im pretty sure you can use it as a stand alone midi controller
@@leirak8086 I got it working as a plugin in Ableton. Best of both worlds. I'll use it as a standalone from time to time. Traditional workflow. Thanks for your comment though.
Dope video bro! Is the 2.10.1 update exclusively for the computer?
Hey brother, it’s actually also for the mpc one on stand-alone we get the new touch Fx plugin which is really nice.
The touch slider fx look like fun. Can you use those in combination with track mutes to jam out a track in realtime (and have it recorded somehow)?
Hi Adam, absolutely as long as you assign that slide bar to which ever parameter of your choice no matter what page you’re in it should follow that parameter even if you’re on track mute page. That’s an awesome observation though I haven’t tried that myself.
how do you get to the program edit window so you can envelope?
Hallo. Can you help me with one problem? When i turn on the mpc soft i have sound only in this soft. Other programs have no any sound. So when i turn on youtube it fails.
If i turn of mpc beats, the sound in youtube appears.
So i can, t sample straight from youtube
Hold on. That thing might work really well with a Convertable tough screen laptop because you can fold it backward and sit it right in front of the MPC for the time you would use the mouse. I would actually look like what the screen looks like on your stream. Yup I gotta have one. Thanks
I really appreciate you dropping by ensuring is valuable input and no doubt about it, this is awesome for anybody that wants to work with a hybrid set up.
@14:04 is a HIT. Please tell me you gonna drop that bro...
Oh man, thank you so much for bringing this section up on the video. There’s been so many tracks that I’ve put out through these videos and some of them I skip them and ignore them but you just brought this one back up to memory for me. I’m working on an instrumental EP as we speak so I definitely want to dig some of these beats up and put them out.
@@malobeats hell yeah bro this that one in particular is too hot not to release. Cant wait to hear the finished product. Keep it up bro!
Do you have a link to the finished beat at the end?
Can you show how to slice with the studio 2?
Every time i start recording i'm receiving any audio?
Ok, I already have a sample in MPC and I wanted to know how I can live chop it. In this video, you're chopping while sampling. Do you have a video for the other scenario?
Edit: You've answered at 7:42
How did you mix these drums? 14:40
I wonder why I cant see the audio coming into the mpc software as it comes from RUclips so I can see where I want to chop instead of guessing the timing. am I missing a setting somewhere? Like if I record into Fl Studio Edison it will show the wave form as it is recording sound.
u have to record the audio first then treat it like a sample afterwards to chop
It would be awesome if we could toggle the shift button
Nice Video. I work with MPC X. I do my sample beats there. What I am thinking, if I buy MPC Software additionally. Is it possible to record rap audio tracks in MPC Software? Because I am writing my own lyrics and it would be great if this would be possible to have an interface between the MPC X and the Rap Parts...
can you please make a video showing us how to sample from youtube directly into the sampler? ive been trying for days! i am using a audio box 96 please!
if u dont have already get 3.5 to rca cables and rca to ts adapters plug 3.5 into headphone jack of phone or laptop and plug the rca cables with the tips into line input of interface and record audio that way or you can find add on in firefox that downloads audio from youtube or same with android phone hope that helps
mine only lets me sample for 20seconds how did u do it for like 50 seconds?
can i sample from youtube on this mpc ? do i need a cable yes or no ?
Yes you can, I am using my UAD interface and I have some of the preferences rerouted to be able to sample I internally from the interface,
@@malobeats how i got the Apollo 6x
@@luv.matters hey, send me a DM on ig I’ll send you a video clip on how you can rout your IO on your UA console app

Hey @AmazinMusicNYC This worked for me and I don’t know why @Malo Beats deleted my comments. This video is from UAD Channel not spamming!

why samples not working on my mpc studio ? i cant record that from youtube
This looks like a downgrade honestly. The studio black is a better pick up in my opinion. Dope video and cook up tho brudda
Thank you brother I appreciate your input and feedback really means a lot and yeah this is definitely not gonna be for everybody I have not use the studio black myself but this MKii has been pretty fun and I’ll definitely be using this a lot for my music just very convenient and my set up.
brudda.*
The touch is great, different colored pads, very nice knob wheel, etc. It's not supposed to be standalone. Lol.
Just what I needed! Subbed! How do you connect your RUclips for your samples?
Thanks for the sub! and thank you for taking the time to watch the video. 🙏🏼
Thank you for taking the time and putting together this video, Malo. As usual, it was very informative. That device is a pretty cool entry level MPC for newbies to the MPC workflow and software integration. Quick question: For those who have the MPC One, X, or Live 2, couldn't you achieve the same result by using your device in controller mode? If so, I guess it's not any advantage for those that already own the newer MPC's to purchase the new MPC Studio Mk2. Is that correct? Thank you again for your dedication and work. Bendiciones!
Hey David, thank you for always taking the time and supporting the channel. As for the studio mkii it will not be replacing or doing anything different from what our MPC one does there’s no need to purchase the mkii if you already own an MPC in my personal opinion but it is a great machine for people who are just using a keyboard controller and want to upgrade to something a little more durable for beat creation with a laptop. It’s also great for people that like the hybrid of working now with the software and the hardware but that’s something that we can also do on her and Mpc one
@@malobeats ❤
@@malobeats ❤
So you can sample from it?
Hey Anthony, yes you can use the controller to start your sampling and to slice up your samples
@@malobeats goodshit
$269.00 is a steal then
@@visionboard1783 this is only a midi controller dude like the others
