    Hi! Can you assign to the akai pads a td-3 pattern? So when you press it it automatically plays a pattern so you don’t need to “touch” the pattern part from the td-3, you automatically control its patterns from the td-3. I am using fl studio for it too. I ask because I’m looking 4 a pad control and I was looking for the akai mpc live ii but it’s quite expensive. I know you can do that with that akai but have no idea if you can with this akai mpd218… Thanks!!

      Hey, I would route the buttons to toggle certain patterns with melody's triggering the TD-3 in FL if you want to use it for that!

    As a designer being a a copycat and following popular trends and aesthetics can only get you so far before it becomes boring and stagnant and uninteresting, and you realise that everyone is the same and everyone wants to be like everyone else, like an algorythmic echochamber. its the sign of a the times, and It is becoming harder and harder to be original and authentic these days. culture is being regurgitated over and over, in a washing machine, reducing the authenticity of everything more and more and its to the point where its washed out, boring and it feels like nothing new is coming. and now we move into a kind of purgatory where culture, art, design, music, even consciousness itself are all becoming digitised via artificial intellegince, reducing creation to nothing but a few words typed into machines, its kinda sad really. It feels like we will be nothing but consumers of empty, bland and meaningless content and product in the near future.

I don't think the content you've been posting is meaningless, even if you already know the techniques or effects you are teaching. It still has value for your community, for the newbie getting involved and for the pro that wants to recap. You've grown as a person and a professional and it's noticeable. It is really good that you leave social media for your own health. But don't diminish the journey you had until today. :)
