I like this its the same thing I do in Fl studio cause I use mpc one too also and fl studio. it's just in fl studio you can do it much faster. But I like this video cause I bought the mpc one a month ago and learned how to use it within a month. Im loving the MpC one and Fl studio . I got the best of both worlds.
I'm completely new doing Dub Reggae music using a MPK mini MK3 Akai controller with the MPC beats this is SOOOOOO helpful thanks 🙏🏽 this software seems challenging but I'm stay focused on learning it's ALOT for a beginner and I don't play any instruments 🥴🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Looks like you helped me again... I was looking for a way to get the MPC Beats to work more like FL Studio's Song mode and This looks like the way to do it... It's a lot of steps to remember so I'm gonna have to Bookmark this video and watch it over a few times.... Thanks again,...
My Guy, thanks so much you broke it down so great, I get it now, please keep em coming and other steps like pre mastering settings etc, once again, watched alot, but yours is the best
I'm bouncing stems down into Cubase Pro & mixing there. I never thought to do it this way! Props! Im excited to try this, although im curious about effect segments which to me is easier in Cubase!
The easiest way to arrange on the Mpc live or x is to do everything in one sequence and put your bar count up to whatever length your song is. Song mode is annoying and audio tracks works better in the daw not the hardware
I like to learn as much as I can about the MPC beats software that comes with the MPK mini MK3 Akai controller any advice or tutorials for new beginners?? I've had no production experience nor do I play any instruments 🥴🙏🏽 this is alot to take in thanks @doswell great content 💚💛❤️ 🙏🏽
I have been asking everyone if MPC had a daw style audio track situation. I guess this is the closest it will get! Thank you for answering my question. Is this "multitrack" audio view also available on the hardware screen ?
Thanks for the video, really helpful. Do you tend to mix before arranging like this? Is it harder to mix the tracks properly once they've been converted to audio?
Thanks for sharing your worklfow. MPC is clearly missing better multirack arrangement options. That's why you go to audio. Unfrotunatelly this is a problem with synths and automation as once you bouced to audio all this flexibility is lost. If they add one thing, multi track midi arangement then problem will be solved.
It’s a nice video but when tried moc beats only limits to only bouncing 2 Audio tracks only so how come you able to bounce all tracks into audio .. do you have a different version ?? Of mpc beats
I'm a very beginner (just got my mpc studio 2) and here's my question(s) ... If I create a sequence with a kick and a hi--hat, for example. How would I know when I need a new sequence? Should every different sound (instruments, etc) be on their own track in the sequence they are playing? Somebody told me to think of a sequence as the pattern that is playing, if you change patterns that's a new sequence. Does that sound right?
Welcome to the channel. I have a lot of videos for beginners on my channel. Stay locked in I have more on the way. You can always ask a question on my videos I will try to answer you if I know the answer and if I don’t I will let you know that I don’t have the answers 👍🏾🙏🏾
The pencil icon is on the mpc Hardware screen . If you don’t have the MPC Hardware. You can find it in the menu at the top left under tracks. Thanks for watching and commenting I appreciate it 🙏🏾👍🏾
can you show us on the actual Software interface how to explode the tracks before you go on to bounced them, i don't have the mpc hardware with the Pencil Icon you speak of
@@doswellbeats thanks as always, i get it now but then i'm on that version of Mpc beats software where u have limited audio tracks to record , i can only bounce 1 track but i now understand what your doing , i just need to upgrade my software
You are bouncing the midi to audio. What the MPC do is turn your midi track to a audio track and still keep the midi track but mute it . Just in case if you still want to use the midi to make changes. If not just delete the midi Track
Welcome to the channel. You are using the free version of the software you need the paid version to get all the tracks thanks for watching and commenting I appreciate it 🙏🏾👍🏾🙌🏾
@@doswellbeats this was sooo helpful man, I just finishing up with my music production course and I was given Cubase but then lots of plugins to show in that DAW and I like MPC beat interface but then I didn't fully understand how to arrange so I will transfer stuff to Cubase but it was wack to work without a lot of plugins
I feel you bro welcome to the channel man stick around and watch some more of my videos. I dropped a little tips and tricks throughout my videos. And if you see something that you don’t understand drop a comment I will try to explain it if I can 🙏🏾👍🏾🙌🏾
@@doswellbeats by the "pencil icon" u mean the one on the actual software interface or is on a hardware , sorry i have actually tried this whole thing yet
When you bounce the audio it starts from 002 it never starts at 001 . I don’t know why Akai do it like that but that’s how it is. All I do is delete it and it moves everything up . Thanks for watching and commenting on the video bro I appreciate it 🙏🏾👍🏾
It’s not as bad as you think it is . They just need a couple tweaking with the midi and the playlist. I do it this way because I really don’t care for the song mode. So I try to work around that. Thanks for watching and commenting on the video I Appreciate it 👍🏾🙏🏾
@@doswellbeats Thank you and I did look through the comments and seen I wasn't the only one having that problem lol. So Until I buy the upgraded software is there another way I'll have to arrange it? Is it the way that you said you didn't like in the video?
@@doswellbeats So if I'm using MPC beats that comes with my new MPK mini MK3 Akai controller will I have the same issue, do I need to upgrade to another version of MPC software??? @doswell beats
@@reddubby yeah you will but if you don't wanna upgrade just while you're creating make multiple sequences and once you learn how to put the sequences together it won't be hard to do. Watch videos on the tube to show you and then you can use the mute automation feature to help be creative with your sequences.
The reason why is because you are using the free version of the software. The MPC Beat is the free version. You only get 8 midi tracks and 2 audio tracks. You need the MPC software 2. To get all the track
I dont understand why people would work this way in MPC? Because it is fast to move stuff around on screen with a mouse? You lose so much ability to shape and sculpt the sounds once you bounce it to audio. Its frozen forever whereas MIDI preserves its ability to sound like...anything. This video isnt bad technique necessarily but it would be the absolute last thing id do before mixing if i used it to arrange. I find MPC Software works best with the controller and the keyboard and you touch the mouse as little as possible. My two cents as somebody who makes garbage.
Thanks for the comment I appreciate 👍🏾 everyone work in different ways I never said this was the best way but this is my way how I do it I like to work with audio especially inside the mpc software because the midi doesn’t have a wrapper around it but the audio does and I don’t like the song mode inside the mpc software or hardware so I use the audio. Everything is not for everyone. That’s just my work flow. Thanks again for watching and commenting I appreciate it 🙏🏾👍🏾🙌🏾
@@doswellbeats I agree that song mode isn't great and I primarily use sequences as "work spaces" for my main sequence. However, I would point out that when you're in Track View for the midi tracks you can use your mouse to highlight bars (across multiple tracks) in a wrapper, and cut, copy, paste and drag those events around the time line and across the tracks. It's not the best UI but it can do it. I appreciate you. I learned a lot from this video.
Don’t give up bro it sounds like a lot but it really isn’t. Just stick with it and in no time you will get it. Just start slow. Don’t try to do advanced things. Just start by get the basics down. Like understanding the difference between sequence, tracks, and programs. Start there
awesome video. i am a beginner, started using mpc essentials and could never get it. the new mpc beats is amazing, i am great with making the loops but i struggle with making a 64 bar song that doesnt sound like a giant loop haha thanks for the video i will be trying this tomorrow! got my like and sub
On the mpc beats software, u can do the same thing and work with midi when arranging songs into parts like intro, chorus, verse, etc. I think u can do it in the software too if u click the arrow on the far right of the home (the second one after the loop button) u can set it to song mode and arrange the midi tracks. Doubling doesn’t separate the audio, it just duplicates the sequence and adds it to the next sequence. I disagree on working with audio tracks being better than working with midi because u can’t edit audio tracks unless u have protools and u can edit the key of a vocal track. If it was possible to change audio files than any wave/mp3 file can be editable but it isn’t. With midi, u can change the key, note, etc. and that can change everything and give u more control…..
+Goby G-Major thanks for watching and commenting on the video I appreciate it. You can change the key of a audio by changing the simi tone. Sometimes the vst can get messed up and if you did any tweaks to the sound you can’t get it back to the exact same thing. But if you bounce it to audio it preserves the original sounds. I appreciate your comment bro 👍🏾🙏🏾
I mean this is what I been wanting to do my entire beat making career , I like the other video where you just bounced anything to audio to have markers and work with midi just like you work with audio it seems a little quicker it cuts out the bounces but I like how audio can be moved are should I say pushed back and it stays in line , was It something special you did because sometime it moves the entire wrap but then sometime it just pushed the notes you didn't want out of the way around 11:25 is where you started moving the audio back as opposed to moving the entire bar around, but these videos open people who don't know the basics of software up to the possibilities , because like you said song mode isn't as flexible and like this you can listen and edit as the entire song plays without having to assign a sequence to a location and do it over and over.
Just select the time signature you want 1/4, 1/16, 1/32 or a bar. Then move the mouse to the left end of the audio clip near the bottom and click and drag to right or left. Thanks for watching and commenting on the video bro 👍🏾🙏🏾
+charles ogbonna thanks for watching and commenting on the video bro I appreciate it are you using a MPC hardware like the (mpc one or live or x) or are you just using the software by itself. If you let me know I can help you out better 🙏🏾👍🏾
+uglysf hey bro thanks for watching and commenting on the video I appreciate it . I have a video explaining the mpc. What you are asking is in the video around the 10 minute mark. But watch the whole video because its a lot of good info. (Be aware)If you are using the MPC Beats software, that’s the free version and you are only allowed 8 midi tracks and 2 audio tracks. The Mpc 2.0 software is the full version. click the link to watch- Mpc Software for beginners | tutorial czcams.com/video/35Vkzm21Iqk/video.html thanks for watching 🙏🏾👍🏾
+Thokozani 45TK to explode go up to your menu hit edit/ tracks/ explore. You can do this with drum tracks or any other track that have more than one sound. Thanks for watching bro I appreciate it 🙏🏾👍🏾
Hi man I'm having a problem bouncing to audio,When I try to bounce tracks,It keep saying "The maximum number of audio tracks has been reached" Although I haven't bounced anything out
+45 TK what’s up bro. If you are having problem with bouncing to audio the main reason is that you might be using the free software. The free software only gives you 8 midi track and 2 audio tracks. The Mpc beats software is the free version. And the MPC 2.0 software is the paid version. Thanks for watching and commenting on the video bro I appreciate it. Let me know if you are using the free version or the paid version 👍🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
@@doswellbeats Thanks brah,I've got all the info on their website and thanks to your inspirational videos,im a fan👌Been using fl but I kinda like MPC,We connect,Can i ask a question,out of 10 how do you rate the Mpc beats
+45 TK I like it bro but they have a lot of updates that need to happen so it can be more intuitive. Like arranging you whole beat they make it difficult. Like FL studio it’s easy and other DAW. That’s my main beef with the mpc other than that I love it . I will give it an 7.5 because they are slow with updates
Hi man! I have a big problem, once I bounce to new audio track, nothing happens it does not bounce and I have nothing in the audio ... it remains empty ... by chance do you know what I could do? thank you very much indeed
+damiano spagnolo I don’t know why that happened it should go to the next available audio audio track. Look down where all your sounds go if it is there and then drag it to you audio track. (Question) are you using the mpc beats software (the free version) or are you using the paid version of the software? Thanks for watching and commenting on the video bro I appreciate it 👍🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
@@doswellbeats thanks for the answer...i have mpc live and the paid version...i try to reinstall the software but Nothing happened..if i find a solution i will let you know 😃
+Jai Wav thanks for watching and commenting on the video bro I appreciate it. If you are using a mpc. Then the pencil on the MPC where the track is. You hit that pencil and then select bounce to audio. If you are not using an mpc then go to edit in the top left and select track and then bounce to audio. On another not I am doing a Giveaway on my channel check out my last video . All you have to do is purchase my kit and you will be entered for the giveaway 👍🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
+Jai Wav if you have the full version of the software you have over 100 audio tracks. If you are using the MPC beats software the (free version) then you only have 8 middle tracks and 2 audio tracks
No problem bro. Check out my last video I am doing a giveaway. Make sure you subscribe and hit the notification button to get notify when I drop the loop kit
At the top where the play head is moving it is a blue strip that have the bars put your mouse in there and left click and drag down or up . And another way is at the bottom left of the screen it’s two sliders one is going up and down. And the other is going left and right 👍🏾let me know if I explain ok
+Sebastrian W. I am not sure what window you are talking about watch the video again and give me a time stamp so I can go check it out. Let me know what part of the video you are talking about. example (0:54 to 1:27) So I can see what you are talking about
I just purchased a Akai MPK mini MK3 and need to know how to go to another track to add different sounds and keep the other sounds that are already made on other tracks
Thank you for the great video. I’m new to this program. I’m used to using BeatMaker 3. This was very helpful. Those people with the 2 thumbs down are straight haters and those thumb downs need to be directed to themselves. Keep them coming. Thank you for your hard excellent work
+David Hendrickson thanks bro I appreciate the kind words man check out my video title ( akai mpc for beginners) let me know if that helped you out it’s more info in that video
doswell beats I definitely will. Ok my having problems with my minigrand piano vst. When I first downloaded it I uninstalled it and now when I try to open it, it says it's missing from its directory to put it back into my vst folder
Ok so make sure after you uninstall it you go back into the software and run a scan for your vst. That way it is out of your directory. Now install it again and scan the folder you put the vst in . Let me know if that worked for you
How do you copy just one section on one individual track?? For instance you started arranging and want to put a part where it’s been deleted from already.
To copy from track to another track just hit CTRL+A to select everything on track one Then CRTL+C to copy everything Now go to track two Then hit CRTL+V To copy by bars on the same track for instance if you want to copy the midi from bar one to bar two Select bar one and hit CRTL+D. I will be making a video about shortcuts soon hit the bell 🔔 notification so you can know when I post that video 👍🏾🙏🏾
Interesting to see how you do it....tried it a few times but for me the song mode works wonders. overall though, I think this is one area Akai needs work to work on. Doin it like this is not really practical --say you need to correct something within the beat itself now you have to start all over again for that specific track....Good video showing your style tho!
+IAmRunTheTrack no you don’t have to start all over the midi notes is still there they are on mute if any change need to be done go to midi and make your changes then bounce just that part to audio

Here is another dope video for beginners czcams.com/video/35Vkzm21Iqk/video.html
Hope u make another one about sampling a full loop and how to use it in making a song, instead of chopping onto a pad
I have some videos on that. I don’t do a lot of sampling. I try to create my own samples
That's nice the way you do it ! I was doing it the other way with the Song Mode! I'm going to practice this
I like this its the same thing I do in Fl studio cause I use mpc one too also and fl studio. it's just in fl studio you can do it much faster. But I like this video cause I bought the mpc one a month ago and learned how to use it within a month. Im loving the MpC one and Fl studio . I got the best of both worlds.
In my opinion it’s the best way to do it because I don’t care for the song mode

awesome video. i am a beginner, started using mpc essentials and could never get it. the new mpc beats is amazing, i am great with making the loops but i struggle with making a 64 bar song that doesnt sound like a giant loop haha thanks for the video i will be trying this tomorrow! got my like and sub
+Brandon Watts I am glad you find the video helpful. Thanks for watching and commenting on the video I appreciate it 🙏🏾👍🏾
On the mpc beats software, u can do the same thing and work with midi when arranging songs into parts like intro, chorus, verse, etc. I think u can do it in the software too if u click the arrow on the far right of the home (the second one after the loop button) u can set it to song mode and arrange the midi tracks. Doubling doesn’t separate the audio, it just duplicates the sequence and adds it to the next sequence. I disagree on working with audio tracks being better than working with midi because u can’t edit audio tracks unless u have protools and u can edit the key of a vocal track. If it was possible to change audio files than any wave/mp3 file can be editable but it isn’t. With midi, u can change the key, note, etc. and that can change everything and give u more control…..
+Goby G-Major thanks for watching and commenting on the video I appreciate it. You can change the key of a audio by changing the simi tone. Sometimes the vst can get messed up and if you did any tweaks to the sound you can’t get it back to the exact same thing. But if you bounce it to audio it preserves the original sounds. I appreciate your comment bro 👍🏾🙏🏾
@@doswellbeats np dude, loved the way u broke it down into steps…really learned a lot…keep up the good work…..
I mean this is what I been wanting to do my entire beat making career , I like the other video where you just bounced anything to audio to have markers and work with midi just like you work with audio it seems a little quicker it cuts out the bounces but I like how audio can be moved are should I say pushed back and it stays in line , was It something special you did because sometime it moves the entire wrap but then sometime it just pushed the notes you didn't want out of the way around 11:25 is where you started moving the audio back as opposed to moving the entire bar around, but these videos open people who don't know the basics of software up to the possibilities , because like you said song mode isn't as flexible and like this you can listen and edit as the entire song plays without having to assign a sequence to a location and do it over and over.
Just select the time signature you want 1/4, 1/16, 1/32 or a bar. Then move the mouse to the left end of the audio clip near the bottom and click and drag to right or left. Thanks for watching and commenting on the video bro 👍🏾🙏🏾
Pencil icon? I dont get it you not explaining what you mean when you say pencil icon
How did you move track 6 to 5(unused) all you say is pencil. I dont get what you mean
I didnt understand how you exploded the drum track please explain
+charles ogbonna thanks for watching and commenting on the video bro I appreciate it are you using a MPC hardware like the (mpc one or live or x) or are you just using the software by itself. If you let me know I can help you out better 🙏🏾👍🏾
Bro , how to divide the drums into separe tracks? I could not understand how it works?
+uglysf hey bro thanks for watching and commenting on the video I appreciate it . I have a video explaining the mpc. What you are asking is in the video around the 10 minute mark. But watch the whole video because its a lot of good info. (Be aware)If you are using the MPC Beats software, that’s the free version and you are only allowed 8 midi tracks and 2 audio tracks. The Mpc 2.0 software is the full version. click the link to watch- Mpc Software for beginners | tutorial czcams.com/video/35Vkzm21Iqk/video.html thanks for watching 🙏🏾👍🏾
Thanks ,man ✌️
Whatup doss,I would like to ask how do you explode manualy to separate tracks on mpc software
+Thokozani 45TK to explode go up to your menu hit edit/ tracks/ explore. You can do this with drum tracks or any other track that have more than one sound. Thanks for watching bro I appreciate it 🙏🏾👍🏾
@@doswellbeats Thanks dos
Hi man
I'm having a problem bouncing to audio,When I try to bounce tracks,It keep saying "The maximum number of audio tracks has been reached" Although I haven't bounced anything out
+45 TK what’s up bro. If you are having problem with bouncing to audio the main reason is that you might be using the free software. The free software only gives you 8 midi track and 2 audio tracks. The Mpc beats software is the free version. And the MPC 2.0 software is the paid version. Thanks for watching and commenting on the video bro I appreciate it. Let me know if you are using the free version or the paid version 👍🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
@@doswellbeats I'm using the free software version,How do I upgrade to a paid version,which site I go to purchase
+45 TK you have to go to the Akaipro.com
@@doswellbeats Thanks brah,I've got all the info on their website and thanks to your inspirational videos,im a fan👌Been using fl but I kinda like MPC,We connect,Can i ask a question,out of 10 how do you rate the Mpc beats
+45 TK I like it bro but they have a lot of updates that need to happen so it can be more intuitive. Like arranging you whole beat they make it difficult. Like FL studio it’s easy and other DAW. That’s my main beef with the mpc other than that I love it . I will give it an 7.5 because they are slow with updates
Hi man!
I have a big problem, once I bounce to new audio track, nothing happens it does not bounce and I have nothing in the audio ... it remains empty ... by chance do you know what I could do? thank you very much indeed
+damiano spagnolo I don’t know why that happened it should go to the next available audio audio track. Look down where all your sounds go if it is there and then drag it to you audio track. (Question) are you using the mpc beats software (the free version) or are you using the paid version of the software? Thanks for watching and commenting on the video bro I appreciate it 👍🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
@@doswellbeats thanks for the answer...i have mpc live and the paid version...i try to reinstall the software but Nothing happened..if i find a solution i will let you know 😃
Hey did you figure what do I export the audio arrangement as wen done.?
+Jai Wav you can export it as .wav .mp3 or you can export the stems
Hey so after your finished arranging this way, wat do I export it as..?
At 6:47 what did you say..? Pencil?... plus how did you bounce to audio track..? I didn’t see u click anything and a window just started loading
+Jai Wav thanks for watching and commenting on the video bro I appreciate it. If you are using a mpc. Then the pencil on the MPC where the track is. You hit that pencil and then select bounce to audio. If you are not using an mpc then go to edit in the top left and select track and then bounce to audio.
On another not I am doing a Giveaway on my channel check out my last video . All you have to do is purchase my kit and you will be entered for the giveaway 👍🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
@@doswellbeats tnks, I also noticed bouncing to audio tracks is limited wen doing it in mpc.... do I hv more availability in the software version..?
+Jai Wav if you have the full version of the software you have over 100 audio tracks. If you are using the MPC beats software the (free version) then you only have 8 middle tracks and 2 audio tracks
Cool tips. Thanks.
Reminds me of the Playlist on FLSTUDIO.
No problem bro. Check out my last video I am doing a giveaway. Make sure you subscribe and hit the notification button to get notify when I drop the loop kit
🔥🔥🔥
Thanks bro 🙏🏾👍🏾
Nice bro thank you for this helpful video
I am glad that the video was helpful to you. Thanks for watching bro 👍🏾🙏🏾
Also how do I zoom in where the sounds and everything is like you have it?
At the top where the play head is moving it is a blue strip that have the bars put your mouse in there and left click and drag down or up . And another way is at the bottom left of the screen it’s two sliders one is going up and down. And the other is going left and right 👍🏾let me know if I explain ok
@@doswellbeats thanks
@@doswellbeats I need to make the window bigger
+Sebastrian W. I am not sure what window you are talking about watch the video again and give me a time stamp so I can go check it out. Let me know what part of the video you are talking about. example (0:54 to 1:27) So I can see what you are talking about
I just purchased a Akai MPK mini MK3 and need to know how to go to another track to add different sounds and keep the other sounds that are already made on other tracks
+Sebastrian W. Thanks for watching bro I appreciate it. Check out my video title (akai mpc for beginners) it have a lot more info
@@doswellbeats awesome! I will do that. Thanks bro
Thank you for the great video. I’m new to this program. I’m used to using BeatMaker 3. This was very helpful. Those people with the 2 thumbs down are straight haters and those thumb downs need to be directed to themselves. Keep them coming. Thank you for your hard excellent work
+David Hendrickson thanks bro I appreciate the kind words man check out my video title ( akai mpc for beginners) let me know if that helped you out it’s more info in that video
doswell beats I definitely will. Ok my having problems with my minigrand piano vst. When I first downloaded it I uninstalled it and now when I try to open it, it says it's missing from its directory to put it back into my vst folder
Ok so make sure after you uninstall it you go back into the software and run a scan for your vst. That way it is out of your directory. Now install it again and scan the folder you put the vst in . Let me know if that worked for you
doswell beats ok so I will uninstall it and then go into mpc beats and scan
+David Hendrickson yap👍🏾
How do you copy just one section on one individual track?? For instance you started arranging and want to put a part where it’s been deleted from already.
To copy from track to another track just hit CTRL+A to select everything on track one
Then CRTL+C to copy everything
Now go to track two
Then hit CRTL+V
To copy by bars on the same track for instance if you want to copy the midi from bar one to bar two
Select bar one and hit CRTL+D. I will be making a video about shortcuts soon hit the bell 🔔 notification so you can know when I post that video 👍🏾🙏🏾
@@doswellbeats did you make the video on shortcuts yet?
Really nice method, and very helpful content...I like the thumbnail also... Thanks for sharing Doswell, I always learn a bunch 🙏🏾💯☝🏾
+No Lid Creations 🙏🏾thank you
Up top still waiting on that reggae one drop
+Jahguida Bailey I got you bro it’s coming
Interesting to see how you do it....tried it a few times but for me the song mode works wonders. overall though, I think this is one area Akai needs work to work on. Doin it like this is not really practical --say you need to correct something within the beat itself now you have to start all over again for that specific track....Good video showing your style tho!
+IAmRunTheTrack no you don’t have to start all over the midi notes is still there they are on mute if any change need to be done go to midi and make your changes then bounce just that part to audio
Dope workflow fam!!! Keep em comin!!!💯👊🏾💯👊🏾
+DJ FATZ - Hip-Hop Beats thanks bro 🙏🏾
Great Job
Thanks bro I appreciate it 🙏🏾👍🏾
Me I like to use the song mode

Thanks bro for supporting 🙏🏾
@@doswellbeats No prob. I wanted to nsee how much different you do it than me.
How do you do it bro do you use the audio track?
Or do you use the song mode
@@doswellbeats I arrange within the sequences and use song mode.
