Thanks Bro you just helped me learn how to use my MPC! Many blessings and keep the good content and productions coming. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Glad to hear, and appreciate ya
Great tutorial I have mpc1 and it been seating there waiting for me to use it. Now I can use it with fl studio the right way. The beats hit like zaytovan bro.. I’m amp fired up
Get to it..Thanks 👌🏾
That beat sounds good bro
The best video thus far!!!!! You have just motivated and inspired me so much. Thank you Fr!!!
Thank you for that feedback..that means a lot and is motivating..I’ll do some more of these soon.
@@BrandonBLysticLee I only had one issue.. It uploaded into FL Studio... The MPC 2 will not talk to the Soft ware... Should I redo everything all over... It located the keyboard but not the MPC, during Controller Mode... I downloaded MPC Beats... Do I have to pay for the Software...?
Dope Just Finished The Mpc Live Video Then I Find This, Appreciate It Bro! Subscribed!
🙏🏾
Finna try this out and see what i can create ☝🏽
Man, I'm late to the show here, but your stuff is legit and super helpful as I just bought an MPC live 2 to use with FL studio. I'm a fellow YTer (tech stuff) - and I really appreciate your production quality. You deserve way more than 4k subs. I should know - I have 4k too :)
Aw yeah thanks for tuning in, he got some good tips on here💯
Nice video very informative
Damn you helped me out a lot with that tutorial 💯
Great content 🚀🚀🚀
Very useful thanks brotha
Very handy brother, thanks. I’ve got the akai force and NI Maschine studio, and thank to this video, I’ll use FLStudio to join all my ideas to the same Daw.🎉❤😊
this helped me alot thanks just changed the game for me
No problem..thanks for watching and for the feedback
this was dope ....
Perfect
👑📈👍🏾 Good stuff yo.
I appreciate it!
Thank YOU BRO!!!!
good 411 I'm a old timer s 950 xl 2000 and mpc x I'm back to beats your video help me and you got straight 2 it ✌🎵
Great tutorial, I’m about to start making more music videos too. I’m a producer from nj.
Broooooo amazing content
Preciate it man
fire
🙏🏾
you can send each pad to the FL mixer using outputs, then play the mpc software as a vst. (trigger mpc within fl as a instrument in the piano roll.) then you can mix and add effects like a reg channel. or just like the FPC. But thank you i learned something here also. i did not know you could pull audio like that and or midi. like machine. thanx. subbed. peace.
Really ? How thanks for the info !
Good video. People in my Facebook group ask about this all the time
Appreciate it man..I’m in one or two of those groups with you lol
What’s ur Facebook group called
@@konhurt9873 Producer Vets
Great video!! You captured exactly what I was looking to learn and more. Do you know if the MPC software will let you export midi? I find I’m more creative with the MPC but FL is more flexible.
yes it right next to were the export of the wav is
Thanks bro, this inspired me to dig deeper and now I've got a perfect template.
I've been trying to figure out if its possible to run the MPC software vst in FL studio and create midi out tracks in the MPC to control VSTs in Fl studio from the MPC.
Glad to hear..appreciate you
word you helped me out, overdub setting was hidin lol
lol...glad to hear...that setting is annoying sometimes
Dope videos question can I use my sounds like vsts for my MPC and Export it to FL studio as well as the drums if so how will that. Work cause I will have to switch tracks on my MPC cuz you can't use the Mpc twice as a vsts on FL Studio correct ? So is it possible that I can use the drums and my vst sounds inside of the MPC. & run through it FL Studio? Plz get back with me 🙏🏿thanks
Subscriber #968 homie!
Much appreciated too! You know I’m keeping an eye on it lol
@@BrandonBLysticLee For real when you this close! 1000 is harder then 10,000. It get easier on the way up I promise.
Side note after watching your video I ordered the Akai MPC Live 2 on Amazon. Your content works.
love the video! Is there a way to sample into the Mpc while you using it in FL? Like I want to record from my phone or vinyl. But I can't figure it out so I have to download my samples. Hope to hear from you.
It should work the same as the standalone app while in controller mode
How do I make sure I have (the green circle light on) next to MPC. within fl studio so I know it's working properly
🙏how do i use mpclive2 to control my daw synths in fl? i’m trying to use mpc like we use jodi controllers, so i can HEAR serum as i’m playing it…not play an mpc sound, then drag that midi to another sound.
i’m plugged in usb 3.0. mpc track one is a synth, track 2 is midi channel out to daw. track 1 is midi sent to track 2.
all firmware is up to date.
trying to get it to work with usb. this is my mobile rig so don’t want to add midi cable + interface as already got a lot going on.
if had any advice would mean so much. akai support keeps saying their line isn’t educational. i’ve watched called & read everything possible for last week, pretty frustrated would be beyond grateful if anyone knows the answer.
thank you 4 your time and help!!
You can make 808s just like that on keygroup with the mpc
yes..
Do you know why the sound from fl studio isn't dragging into the mpc plugin? I followed all instructions via akai.
How you export the midis from the mpc to Flp??
Is there a way to get FL to respond to the STOP/PLAY/PLAY START buttons on the MPC?
youre my f*ckin dawg, DAWG
Lol 👌🏾
I have Mpc live and mpc2 but neither offer a vst plugin or 64 bit version. how do I get that installed?
Is there a way to separate the drums from the MPC software into individual tracks on FL so you can mix/master them individually? The software is cool but I can see it turning into a mixing/mastering nightmare.
I can’t drag the FL studio sounds in a he mpc pads but I can drag and drop the mpc sounds on the mpc pads ???
I get how to drag audio, but when I try to drag MIDI from MPC into FL, no action happens. Any suggestions?
How did you get sound I got mines hooked up but no sound
I have the MPC live Mk 2 and it says it can connect to Ableton live 10. is it the same process for Ableton? or do you know how to do the Ableton Connect
It’s the same in Ableton..just open MPC as a plug-in and it syncs the same way.
What’s Goodie.. nice tutorial.. how do you get your sound to come out so clear while talking .. are you recording through the microphone or software?
Hey, appreciate it...i have the mic running through my mixer, that is running through the audio interface
B’Lystic Productions thanks a lot I appreciate it
I just got the live for Christmas will it work the same for me
Dope..It should
I am an absolute beginner. Do I need a midi interface on my PC to connect the mpc x to the fl studio or is the USB port from the mpc x sufficient
The usb cable provided should be sufficient
On MPC TOUCH in GRID VIEW mode, shrink and stretch LINE on the touchscreen ? Will all notes always be aligned exactly on the grid ? And editing only on a PC turns out.
Not really understanding..can you rephrase the question?
@@BrandonBLysticLee I'm sorry. In the Piano Roll MPC, how to make a beat by touch ?
How you set everything up tho
Where you get your 808s
I did the same steps that you just show me and it doesn't work at all.
I even deleted my entire computer and reinstall FL Studio 20. Including the VST plugin mpc live 2 and I still can not found the MPC software on FL Studio 20
Bro where can I get those ATL drumkits?
So, I have a lot of my favorite drums and new ones in my ELIXR drum kit here: blysticproductions.com/index.php/product-category/drum-kits/
The ATLTrapBeats one was when I ran a beat store called ATLTrapBeats.com, but I've since dropped it and just use my B'Lystic one for everything.
@@BrandonBLysticLee Ok bet
How do you get the mpc to control record . My transports don’t seem to be linked , I have to press record from FL Studio. I changed the hardware in the mpc to plugin still not allowing me to use my transports
Mine isn’t linked completely...i have to press play in FL Studio and it plays the MPC too..then, i use the record/overdub buttons to arm or disarm the MPC Software recording..it doesn’t have any effect on FL Studio
I was wondering the same thing.
What audio settings do you need when using mpc with FL Studio? Every time I try the audio shuts off.
Same thing is happening to me did u ever find a solution?
@@apyougoingcrazy mine was working and now isnt, did you find a fix?
I got my MPC loaded as a plug-in but when I try to drag a sample from FL into the MCP pad it doesn’t load at all like where u dragged it with no problem . Anyone know how to fix this?
I’m having the same problem
Bro, I just wanted to know where did you download the software?
Can’t find this either lol
What software? The MPC?
Ya I ended up finding it lol, I had first downloaded some lite version , but I found the correct one
5:06 I'm having issues dragging it into the vst. It doesn't load into the pads, any ideas?
for anybody experiencing this there's 2 options,
(1) Used the "File Browser tab (F)" located at the bottom left hand side to import your sound banks from where ever your drum kits are located on your computer.
(2) Allow Akai's MPC's application to communicate through Windows Defender Firewall.
Control panel > System and security > Windows defender firewall > Allow apps, & add MPC to the list.
You're welcome.
I tried the 2nd option and it didn’t seem to work
I cant figure out what you’re talking about in the first option
You have an email bro? I'm having trouble getting FL studio to sync with my MPC live
There has to be a way to record directly from the Mpc into the playlist in FL.. I’ve used this method before, but would like to eliminate the drag and drop from Mpc to FL.. If anyone knows how I would appreciate the info..
Yeah, there probably is a way to set the outputs in the MPC pads to separate inputs on FL channels..maybe setting up a template would help speed that up....but I think i'd stick with the drag and drop due to not usually having over 8-12 tracks
@tslimm409 record it thru Edison just make sure you set your inputs.. you have to record it into Edison separately and you might have some hardware delay so let the the pattern play for two bars so it could catch up then use the best loop after that.. trust me this is the ONLY way to do this.. it’s crazy but everything slaps better... don’t drag and drop!! Thank me later
maybe im getting something wrong here but when i go inside the pianoroll of the MPC plugin inside of fl studio, i can normally record through fruity into the piano roll .. inside the pianoroll from the mpc plugin the sounds from the programm are on the lower notes... pads are also recognized but im not sure yet how to map the notes to the pads they are some kind of not in order...
my problem is when i recorded something inside of the mpc plugin it keeps playing the mpc plugin everytime i hit play inside of fruity... so basically export the mpc plugin as a wav and drag them in fl + deleting or muting the plugin afterwards is the only way i manage to work with it... in my opinion there should be a way to export a full mpc sequence OR track into a FL pattern OR pianoroll OR tracklist... lets hope they add a function for this in a update
You can use Midi outs in FL they will directly import midi from FL studio as patterns.... The patterns may still need a few minor adjustments and not accurate but this should help speed up the creation process and inspire creativity... Because the main problem with exporting them as audio is that you can't change the original snare sample or hhat sample or drum sample... You can't change the samples because its already in audio format.
Hey bro, I figured it out a few days ago. Lmk if you have questions. I did the work below and created a template to make things faster.
1. Setup your audio outs in your MPC VST in fl studio by clicking the gear and then the processing tab. Click auto map outputs (you can change this if you need to). This will send the different MPC outputs to different mixer channels. You can have up to 16
2. In your MPC Software assign the pad or keygroups to different outputs (Out 1,2 Out 3,4 etc).
3. Go to your playlist. On each playlist track click track mode, audio track, and match it up with the mixer channel (which is already matched to your MPC audio output).
4. When you are ready to track out, click the arm disk recording button on each corresponding mixer track you wish to track out. Click record in FL Studio (make sure it is set for audio). All of your tracks are tracked out at once. This also records the "dry" signal so you can mix in FL studio's mixer as you go, track out, and continue your mix.
5. Make sure you go to an empty sequence on your MPC after you've tracked out so everything is not playing via the MPC AND the audio stems.
I guess I'm the first one
WHY WONT THE SAMPLES FROM FL STUDIO GO TO MY PADS ON THE MPC ? ANYONE KNOW HOW TO FIX THIS?
I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM, DID U FIGURE IT OUT?
Noob here: Drag and drop isn’t working for me for some reason. I drag a sample over to a pad and it lights up, but it doesn’t load on the pad, it disappears.
are you allowed to add it midi instead of wav??
You are allowed to do what you want lol...it would kind of defeat the purpose in FL though...unless you started the beat in MPC/Stand-alone and want to move the midi to FL to change the sound of that melody, etc
It’s not letting me drag the samples from FL to the mpc software. 🤯🤯
Someone please help!!
I HAVE THE SAME ISSUE, DID U FIGURE IT OUT?
Thank u bro
This video is so quiet lmao
good vid, just turn up the gain on your mic a little. You are extremely low volume.
I’ll let my 3 year ago self know… appreciate it
