You showing the pad tap/hold feature is a game changer for my workflow. My past process on sampling multiple portions of the song was a lot more manual and cumbersome and this will save me a lot of time.
Oh man, I’m glad this clicked with your workflow since it has saved me so much time prior to this workflow. Blessings to you and thank you for dropping my brother.
Nice video man and great tips/features. Not sure if you just like going into grid editor to mark all the events/markers to delete. But a quick way to do this, is once you copy your sequence, hit the erase button and you can say to clear all events (for the sample program) and you’re ready to start filling in a new sample pattern. Basically saves you from going into the grid editor and snagging all the events to delete.
My goodness, my goodness 🤦♂️ i’m extremely thankful you took the time out of your day to drop by as I’ve been so frustrated having to select all of the MIDI notes to delete them, I always wish there was a select all to delete and you’re absolutely right, this flu right passed me. Again thank you so so much for taking the time and dropping by I’m definitely gonna be doing this from now on. Much love and blessings to you 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I never used pad tap when sampling. I would always just sample the whole song and then chop the whole thing up. This is a much better way and it saves memory. Thanks!
Definitely, I’m not a big fan of pulling in the entire song sins depending on how long the song is the session couldn’t start like in a bit but using this function allows me to go back-and-forth and only pick up the parts that I really want to work with. I’m glad it was helpful 🙏🏽
Wow, this really hits deep and you have no idea how much I appreciate you taking the time out of your day to share this with me. Nothing but love and blessings to you my brother. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Absolutely brother, I’ve been enjoying this update so much is honestly one of my favorites but I noticed there’s a few bugs that people have been encountering which is a big bummer but these minor features and updates are amazing.
Thank-you for the tips! I forget little things about mpc use all the time and need content like this ⚡️⚡️⚡️ I recently learned to try and look into using multiple samples from different bands/tracks/even genres, on the Sam's song, even if it's ovder just one bar, you can melt so many sounds together to make entirely new sound , listen to "face to face" by daft punk, that intro /chorus is like 6 samples, and they're taken from very surprising spots on tracks from all different artists, find a breakdown of it if you can , genius sampling , really that entire album "discovery" is a great example of sampling creatively, it's easy to fall into a habbit of sample chopping one song and kind if just using big chunks of a song like old-school hip-hop there's nothing wrong at all with that , there's so many amazing tracks that let their samples do a lot of the heavy lifting , but seeing a group sow together a wild combination helps widen the creative ideas when working on new stuff , or when looking for stuff to sample, there's no limit to how much you can stir up and re write with samples from anything
Yooooooo! This is something you can also kinda do with the Octatrack, but in a slightly different way using parts. Totally digging the words my man! Keep it up!
I’ve gotten to the point where I can make whatever melody I want. So I only sample myself or use samples for Collabs now. 🙏🏾🔥 Come so far in just 2 years with my machine. 🙏🏾
If your chops not in order ! Press Shift .. on the Sample edit page .. make sure One shot tab is on .. Highlighted .. White ! Erase the chops .. and Retry Tapping the pads .. 1-16 .. etc . One shot has to be on! In order to Lazy / Quick chop!
Man, I gotta be honest..2.11 is buggy as hell for me. Pops and clicks on my one shot programs/sample chops (when sequenced), that first slice bug and other issues killing my vibe 😩 But your enthusiasm has brought me back up lol. Some neat tricks to try out here. Just wish Akai would hurry up and patch this update so I can enjoy it a lot more 🤞
Man brother, I know the frustration and it’s such a bummer that there’s been so many minor bugs reported with this two. 11 since it’s been one of my favorite updates so far but I can definitely tell where the frustration comes from and I hope they’re able to update this sooner than later.
Hey Malo, is there a way to set the velocity to control a sample offset? for example I have a long bass cut that I want to use as a key group, I'd like to use the velocity to scrub through the sample instead so I can still manipulate the pitch or cycle through a selection super fast. It can be done in Ableton and bitwig but I know that might be a less popular feature on here
Good morning! After you do Manual chop.. You press Shift ..Select Convert . Save to New Program.. Non Destructive vs Pad Parameter Does Pad Parameter.. protect all my Start / End points .. from your manual chops ?
Can somebody answer these questions? 1) if I sample a bunch of different eight bar loops of songs can I put them all on one key group in the same tempo? And how to do that?
The question I have is if there's a way to sample in time with an existing sequence? People suggest the looper but the problem with that is it loops whereas the sampler keeps going up to the chosen time limit. Ideally Akai will update the sequencer to enable the start of a sequence as the trigger.
It’s a bummer that there’s been lots of bugs reported as the 2.11 is very promising but I understand these minor bugs could be a bit frustrating at the moment, hopefully the updated very soon
Knock on wood I still haven’t got a strike, what I’ve been doing is not letting the Original track play any longer than three seconds so every three seconds I do a cut to another section of the song and so far it’s been working for me.
I actually just updated my machine yesterday and started messing with some of its features today. It’s definitely a sweet upgrade. Will do that video this week. Blessing to you
Great question, this happens to me and I know what you mean when there’s so much going on it’s a bit hard to make it pop in the mix. So far I have used some third-party apps that help with isolating certain instruments but they are not perfect one that I can recommend is called (Moises) I use iPhone and it’s with the color blue so you should be able to download it for free and try to throw some songs in there and it will allow you to isolate certain elements which it does a pretty decent job
hi Malo, thank you for all your mpc lesson, just curious how all of your sliced samples is "click" free, im struggling with the annoying "click" sound in my samples.. sending love from indonesia
Hey brother, thank you for taking the time and dropping by watching this video. And just like Jon Smith mentioned, When you’re chopping up your sample hole downshift and you will see that zero snap option that will do its best to be more precise on getting rid of those clicks and pops. It’s an awesome feature to try out if you haven’t done so already. Hope this was helpful
I'm new to this sampling, so how do I make my sample sound muffled (like a have a pillow over my speaker). Similar to how H.E.R sampled Herb Alpert. Let me know or show me the link if you did it already, (also, what is the term for that type of editing?).
Hey brother thank you for reaching out and no worries I know the terminology could be a bit confusing at first but what you are looking for it would be a Low pass filter also known as (LPF) Thank you for mentioning this in I’ll be putting out a video on this topic very soon.
Depends what you value most. Battery for portability? Speaker? Lots of slots to input devices? Live. If those features don't catch your eye go for the one. Same software and features making it the same device minus the few benefits that make or break your decision
It been so many buzz reported on this update and it’s unfortunate since it’s one of my favorite ones so far but I really do hope they’re able to patch this up sooner than later.
You mustve read my scathing amazon review on this that I wrote a few days ago. The workflow is rediculous. It's not intuitive or efficient....for anyone. Look at all of those hoops you have to jump through in the first couple of mins alone just to get to slicing. Come on man. That ain't right. I have to pull up a video go through it and by that time is over my motivation is dead. If that happens to you go to channel fx. They often get me going again. Lol. I found the other day that you just record an audio sample and split it across pads. It'll lay it all out and you just go in and do manual edits to start and stop points.

Greetings from Sweden in case I forget to say thanks , thanks. Perfect perfect wake n bake morning, just what I needed.
Thank you very much. I am starting with mpc one and your videos are very useful. Your English is very understable too.

That probability + swing is really cool. Got some unexpected sick vibes using it, specially on shakers, etc. Great vid.

I'm with iceman21542, I didn't even know that PAD TAP/HOLD existed. This changes a lot for me too. Thank you!!

Great video. Looking forward to the next one !
Thank you brother I really appreciate you taking the time in sharing your feedback. Blessings to you
Another masterful lesson. We appreciate you Malo Sensei 🙏 🦗
This means a lot, thank you so much for taking the time and staying feedback. I’m glad this was helpful.

great stuff! i really appreciate being reminded of features iv been neglecting
Now, I got how to use "Probability" This is a really fun feature!! Next time, I gonna try to use this!
Honestly, it’s been so fun using the probability and it’s allowed me to come up with grooves that I would’ve never done on my own.
Wow Thanks for the tip. I didn't know I could do all that.
Perfect timing ⏱ 👌🏾
Glad this was helpful. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
This beat is dope.
Sick Ben Davis hat!
Yo!! Hey hank you brotha I’m glad you mentioned this 🙏🏽🙏🏽 hahah blessings
Had a similar work flow with the mv8800.. part of the high of making beats for me is putting an idea/beat in song format
Great vid Malo!
Thank you so much for the feedback brother. Much love to you
great information!

OK I thought I was the only one that had the issue with the sample start point
this sample was used by black milk in the song shut it down, good one
I got a check this one out, thank you for taking the time and dropping by brother. Blessings
Bro What turntable do you use with your MPC One? I thought u need a ground like the Live 2? I have both but I want one jest for my MPC One.
Hey Dennis, thank you for dropping by and yes the turntable i use is TurnTable AT-LP60: www.zzounds.com/a--3979349/it...
Wherever you press stop is where the cue will stay
He just released a new update this morning which fix this issue so is good to go now. I appreciate you dropping by with his information
Works great on the MPC Key 61 as well!
Thank you so much for this update I’m assuming you’ve had your hands on that MPC key 61, it looks awesome brother. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Hey Malo, is there a way to set the velocity to control a sample offset?

Good morning! After you do Manual chop.. You press Shift ..Select Convert .
Save to New Program..
Non Destructive vs Pad Parameter
Does Pad Parameter.. protect all my Start / End points .. from your manual chops ?
Pad tap and and hold are forever being used now
Ty
Definitely a feature that is not talked about as much as it should.
Can somebody answer these questions? 1) if I sample a bunch of different eight bar loops of songs
can I put them all on one key group in the same tempo? And how to do that?

Going back to 2.10 Downloaded 2.11 tried to save and it froze. I couldn’t even power off. I’m going back until they work out the kinks.
It’s a bummer that there’s been lots of bugs reported as the 2.11 is very promising but I understand these minor bugs could be a bit frustrating at the moment, hopefully the updated very soon
how do you use samples in your videos without it getting copyrighted?
Knock on wood I still haven’t got a strike, what I’ve been doing is not letting the Original track play any longer than three seconds so every three seconds I do a cut to another section of the song and so far it’s been working for me.
@@malobeats thanks bro lovin the quality of your video and content
Any chance of a vid on the new sp404 mkII 2.0 Update brother?
I actually just updated my machine yesterday and started messing with some of its features today. It’s definitely a sweet upgrade. Will do that video this week. Blessing to you
@@malobeatsYeah it's everything I was waiting for. Thak you i appreciate it brother 🙏🏾.
What’s your advice when sampling a song that have the drums playing all thru it it’s some stuff I wanna sample but it got the drums in the way
Great question, this happens to me and I know what you mean when there’s so much going on it’s a bit hard to make it pop in the mix. So far I have used some third-party apps that help with isolating certain instruments but they are not perfect one that I can recommend is called (Moises) I use iPhone and it’s with the color blue so you should be able to download it for free and try to throw some songs in there and it will allow you to isolate certain elements which it does a pretty decent job
@@malobeats ok thank you
hi Malo, thank you for all your mpc lesson, just curious how all of your sliced samples is "click" free, im struggling with the annoying "click" sound in my samples.. sending love from indonesia
When sample editing hit SHIFT and you'll see 0 Snap, make sure it's on and that should help plus slicing on the down slope(iirc) of the transient...
Hey brother, thank you for taking the time and dropping by watching this video. And just like Jon Smith mentioned, When you’re chopping up your sample hole downshift and you will see that zero snap option that will do its best to be more precise on getting rid of those clicks and pops. It’s an awesome feature to try out if you haven’t done so already. Hope this was helpful
Works like a charm, thank you!!
I’ve actually never used the auto-slice
I'm new to this sampling, so how do I make my sample sound muffled (like a have a pillow over my speaker). Similar to how H.E.R sampled Herb Alpert. Let me know or show me the link if you did it already, (also, what is the term for that type of editing?).
I believe they put a filter on that sample
Hey brother thank you for reaching out and no worries I know the terminology could be a bit confusing at first but what you are looking for it would be a Low pass filter also known as (LPF) Thank you for mentioning this in I’ll be putting out a video on this topic very soon.
@@malobeats appreciate that info man. Take your time on the video. No rush.

Mpc one or mpc live. Which one is best to you?
Depends what you value most. Battery for portability? Speaker? Lots of slots to input devices? Live.
If those features don't catch your eye go for the one. Same software and features making it the same device minus the few benefits that make or break your decision
If I had to choose one I would go with the live 2 do to it’s portability and the 6 outputs it gives.
Has that sample start time bug been reported?
I’m not sure if it has but thank you for bringing that up.
2.11 is bugged out
It been so many buzz reported on this update and it’s unfortunate since it’s one of my favorite ones so far but I really do hope they’re able to patch this up sooner than later.
I wonder if i should Unfollow all the MPC content creator since they won't Update my MPC renaissance...
Yes, it’s unfortunate but it doesn’t look like the Renaissance will be getting any updates. :/
@@malobeats And I hvae the 2.10 software Update. They should've, At Least Said it.
