You're a legend! Just what I was looking for

Yes sir

Thank you

Very thorough. Super helpful!

My issue with my Live2 is my Audio tracks just cutting off on playback after 9-10 bars. The screen shows the recording took but no sound.

Suuuuper helpful

You can turn off all the other bothering raw sounds one by one under edit.

Love your channel. Quick question. My sequences /all tacks in a song have gone mono one speaker. I must have pressed something wrong. Quick fix? Keep up the good work...

Whole video is informative. For the short version, skip to 9:07. Good looking, I learned something new.

One thing about the design that is bad is the display / Enter button. Would have been much better with a larger display and just a normal "Enter" button. Not a personal fan of the "wiggly" display idea. The general idear of the instrument is definetly great. of cause some won't like it, some will love it, and some of us would wish they had taken it a bit further with a more serious powerfull processing board to actually reach out to match the posibilities like the Korg Kronos. and provide a larger ammount of cuncurrent sound combis and poliphony. Arturia already have possible one of the best plugin collection available in the V-collection and other plugins. Wether they sound exactly the same as the originals or not is not a real issue to me. Just to have that many classic instrument recreations in a "box" or software collection in a stage keyboard is kinda awsome. Just wish Arturia will take it further with an "Astrolab Titanic" where you just have to connect eg. a Keylab 88 or what you prefere in keybeds to have a full gig setup for all your sounds 😋

I just got the astro lab, I punched in a couple of instruments to favorites but I cannot find where they went, would you know.

I wonder if the MPC was designed as a Performance device and not as a Production device. There's always a step that I miss when using the MPC, but have no issue when using Ableton and a Launchpad.

keep going !

Interesting that it has SPDIF I/O .. One of my audio interfaces has that -- It's just a way of sending digital audio over an RCA cable -- so you can get audio into it to process with its FX without going through extra analog/digital conversion steps, or having to rely on computer connectivity for the same.. I'm thinking about getting this Ti Polar as my first Virus synth..So very tempting; Iridium Core is the same price though, so I'm on the fence. Definitely going for TI1 over 2 , as all that extra power would be wasted on me and most people. It's already 80 voices of Polyphony , 16 voice multi-timbral, which would be hard to have that many simultaneous patches at once in your song, using 80 voices at once ... (Bass, a couple Leads, pads, sound FX , flourishes -- probably wouldn't even use 50 voices for me)

I read some coments that effects don't come trough the headphones, is this true? Because I would use for in ear monitor on live gig and I need to hear the effects applied to vocals. Another thing is I want to use an external Behringer FX2000 effects on AUX and I will return on a stereo Channel. It is possible to also the internal effects be sumed with this external effects? Or when I connect a P10 cable on AUX it will desengage internal effects?

Also, consider buying a MIDI Thru box so you don’t have chaining headaches

@caidicus you should do another version and improve the video production. Content is brilliant!

what's that little magnifying glass with the 16 pads icon for on the automation edit page in the grid view for? It seems to zoom into random spots but I trying to figure out how its really supposed to be used.

I’ve watched a lot of Review Videos on this instrument and this is one of the best ones I’ve seen. I like your honest approach and it’s very informative. If possible would you possibly do a video that shows how you can record into a DAW with it and utilise the Audio Inputs and USB-C connectivity? I don’t know whether it’s possible to just record the Audio of everything you are doing and effecting coming in via the Audio inputs via USB for instance

What did you get instead? I have the same problem but also: the screen tears and glitches out 😂

Thanks .

Thanks for the tips. I'm new to the MPC platform and trying to figure out a workflow that will work for me and help me cut the umbilical to the DAW. Recording longer audio tracks or several passes of the same section is definitely a part of that for me, but I'm starting to see that it's not going to be so easy in the MPC environment. Your video gave me a useful idea, though. I can expand the length of a sequence, jam over that, and then cut it back to the original length at the section that I like best. This definitely helps. One thing, though. You used song mode to make a longer section. Maybe this function didn't exist earlier in the MPC, but there is a function in the sequence menu (accessed via the pencil sign to the right of the sequence name on the main menu) that allows you to simply double the sequence at the press of a button. This doubles any existing audio tracks, too, but you can just record a new longer one after that. It's probably a lot quicker and easier than using the song mode.

Really appreciate your perspective. I am trying to avoid long learning curves and tech for the sake of tech. I have been using an Arturia controller with my MacBook and Ableton. While this combo is super powerful, I am spending way too much time trying to get a solid baseline understanding of all that stuff. This keyboard with my Roland drum machine and Boss looper is a simpler solution for my use case (live performance).

The best Mpc Live Auto Sampler Tutorial I've seen yet! Thanks!!

Nice to see this review! That keyboard certainly scores in the looks department - I'd totally put that into my living room for people to marvel at. Such a futuristic yet classic design.

You are more Pro and unbiased than some "pro "YTubers

Hello hardware synth guy, do you know any standalone synth that can be battery operated? Thanks

Regarding the software from Arturia, you should register this is your Arturia account and wait for a sale or deals. Usually you get an extra discount if you own other Arturia gear or software. For example, I have a Minifuse 2 audio interface and some time after I added it to my Arturia account I got an offer to upgrade to analog lab pro for only 29 bucks. And it costs normally 200 or 100 on a sale.

Why is the beginning of your video mirrored?

It sounds great, but it could of been better. Polyphony is strange, and mine locked up last night it's a toss up, it's cool but then it's goofy at the same time, keybed is fun to play., should give you v collection, wtf.

I am not offput at all by this instrument. A synth on the go.

Love to see reviews from you! Nice one man...hope you're doing well!

At least one neutral video not sponsored, congratulations!

Hey man im a beginner and my dream is to make a song now i bought the moc live 2 but its very complicated i learned how to record my guitar and vocals but they sound horrible and plus i still dont know how to make a song which is my wish

Why does no one demo this with a guitar?!

Very helpful! Thank you!

Awesome...Milana sent me 1

7:57 11/12 is just 11/12 A stereo inpujt with level and even panning. Sure, you can route your FX return there. It's perfectly suited for that, but you can also return it on 1/2 if you need to. Again, not a problem. You can route any stereo signal into 11/12. (A return channel just is an input).

6:57 Jack to RCA adapteres don't cost much and make RCA inputs jack inputs. I don't see the problem. In fact, at the moment I use four of them to connect two pairs of RCA to jack. Or well, one RCA to jack, the other jack to RCA signalwise, but the point is: This is not a problem! They are very useful!

I had a Jupiter 50 for a little while, bought it used out of curiosity, and I thought it was really cool. But, it was pretty big and heavy, and didn't really fit my needs. Still give it a thumbs-up though.

youvee cracked the code

Do you know of any good gear that pairs well with the EMX-1? Appreciate your in depth review of the EMX-1. Just trying to set up a reasonable simple DAWless setup after using Reason 3 years ago

superb!

I know I'm 5 years late, but you have to click on the "Audio" tab, then enter "Audio Edit Mode" and mute the audio from within there. You can't mute it from the main audio window (like I was attempting to do in the past), or it won't work in "Song Mode". If you follow the steps I mentioned above, it'll work like any other track mute in "Song Mode."

Is there a way where I can only load effects on a certain amount of samples instead of the whole program?

Tnk you. I was searching for 2 days😅

Drum program? The program can have any sound/synth/vst!

I have the dark star and this synth I also really like it’s got a nice style mk1 polar is a beast

Great review, thank you 🙏

👌🔥❤🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
