Well done. I spend 75 % of my beatmaking time messing with effects on mpc live. Filter gate is one of my most used fs
You can also map an external midi controller with a lot more knobs like the Faderfox PC 12 (72 assignable knobs) and go buck wild 👍
Sweet! This opens up a lot of fun for actually playing (not just producing) on an MPC. I knew this could be done, but wasn't quite sure how until your video. I was seriously thinking about getting a 404 before this video. Cheers!
Very Good explanations, learned something new. Thanks so much ....keep them coming !
Good video man! I like the way approach videos. Subbed❤. Keep doing your thing homie!
Thanks for all your efforts most appreciated. Probably just saved me buying a Sp!
brilliant. great lesson!
These MPC Live 2 videos have really shown me things i knew nothing about. look forward to trying this out.
Awesome presentation bredren 🔥👍🏾🔥
Thanks for sharing
Thanks! Works well on the X with assigning the different parameters
I love the SP404 but got an old MPC LIVE, so this is very appreciated. I have never done it like that, I usually add FX to my RETURNS, which does the same thing. But I guess your approach I can add 4 FX on 4 SUBMIX'es = 16?! Super cool video, will try this out, hope you have time to clarify my confusion and conclusion. I subbed your Channel!
I heard that one reason for having an actual SP-404 in the master is that it might save you when your MPC or Force crashes. ;)
Appreciate the tutelage. Dope vid. I’m applying as i watch.
Ok this tutorial literally makes lice shows more smooth since I record all my vocals inside the mpc was already using the subs but now with the q links takes the sound to the next level super super fresh
Man this is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 can help with DJ style set playing
Thank you so much!! This. was awesomeeeee
Nice groove Lil Bro! Thanks for the vid help! 💯🫡🔥🔥🔥
This is much helpful thank you
This is dope. Will definitely try it. Subscribed.
Subscribed. Great lesson!
this is a game changer!!!! thank you
This videos gold thank you
Thank you, very helpful tutorial :)
Quality Tutorial...nice one
This is an excellent tutorial! Can you please make more? I’d like to know how to save this configuration to apply to other projects or maybe how to make a template with this involved. Cheers man!
Yes I can. Stay tuned! I know you can definitely do this with a template
Thanks I’m going to try to figure out how to save this as a template for easy loading , a lot of setup but sounds great
Have you figured out how to apply to past projects ? When I save this setup it saves as an xpj, so when I load up an old beat up then this xpj it wipes out the best I’m tryin to add it to … any suggestions????
@@akaixl83that would be . looking for a way to export/import submix mapping. Do you know a way to map fx across all 16 knobs on the X?
@@LeoColtrane I’ve just tried it on the live ii not my x , I’d assume it’d be the same setup , so now if I want these effects I preload them before making a beat
Good video, thanks for this
Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for sharing the knowledge. Is there a way of chaining multiple FX pm a single Q-Link?
Wooooww never knew we could do this
Off topic, but people sleep on the insert effects in the MPC in general. If they say the reverbs and delays suck- then they haven't stepped foot in any major studios...because the one's inside the MPC (AIR) are the EXACT same one's inside of Pro Tools...which 99% of all major records are mixed with since forever! No cap.
Great Tip! :D
thats a huge gamechanger holy shit
Dope tutorial video
thx a lot
Thanks this was very informative and not I’ll be using my Q links more
Awesome tutorial bro … may I know how to record within the mpc ? Or do I need to hook up zoom h8 to record it ?
This is cool, thank you! But how do you record these effects being used in a sequence to add to the song?
Great video....I dislike that xy screen with the xy effect I like the xy grid window. But u just explained the xy window u were using well enough that I'ma give it another shot. I'm very clear now to stage the effect.. Thanks! Dope knobs too!
Dope video bro
I like it 👍🏿👍🏿
Excellent video definitely I learned something new thanks a lot. Questions how can I record the effects?
Curious about that too, as far as i know it's not possible to record automation to submix
DOPE
Game. Thank you so much.
This is so 🔥🔥🔥
Can you record this on the actual beat with out it transferring to other sequences?
Süper👍
You a good teacher
Thanks bro! I appreciate that. I just wanna help people out you know? Give back to the community
Awesome video!! I can’t wait to try it out! Please kindly follow this useful feature with a video on how to record a beat while using these effects! I’ll be looking forward to it 😊👍. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
This video was super helpful thank you so much 🙏🏿
I would love a tutorial on how to record the effects into the track.
It should work if you turn on 'write automation' and record the changes. I'm quite new to this so it may be more involved than that though
@@corranjames5063 thx man I’ll try that. I think what AB did was resample the beat back into the mpc and play out effects live over it
Cool! Where did you get the red volume knob and the white knobs?
Same question, the white looks amazing. Tried MPC Stuff’s replacement knobs, and wasn’t feeling those at all.
👍👍
can you show as how to use mpc live 2 as live DJ machine?
Where you get the knobs from?
Cool video, the next video should be how to record automation of your programmed sub mix 1 q links. then how to edit the automation the recorded automation.
👏👏⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
So if I record this in a sequence but I only want it on just one sequence do I first make a copy of the sequence and with that copy do I also duplicate the program too?
Quick question why didn’t you just use programs instead of sub mix so you would be able to record automation?
Where'd you buy those knobs?
Using mpc beats software. How do I record while using this feature
dude.. it looks like i have a mini mpc live 2 on my iphone if i switch to full screen...whoa this is trippy 😵💫
is it qlink actione recordible on flow?
Hurry up with more videos
I need the Amazon links to those white knobs PLEASE!!
Can you record these automations live?
This is really cool! I saved this FX rack, so I don't have to do all that setup every time I want to use it. Just one question: why is everything on a submix, instead of just putting the FX on the main output?
@@Hoodie_Tello202 If you look at the top of the screen for the rack (where you can select insert FX 1-4), just to the left of the All On/Off button, there's a Save icon. Going from right to left, there's All On/Off, Save, Load, and I don't know what the last one (furthest left) is.
@@Hoodie_Tello202 Glad to help! It really saves a lot of time if you have basic racks that you use a lot, like a Master rack!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🧨🧨🧨🧨🧨🧨
Bro u just showed me stuff I ain’t never know
I like your content man
also I know we can save filter/xf's but can we save qlink programs? if so it would be possible to share fx programs
@@blaykjord6171 i can definitely do a part 2! What would you be interested in seeing?
@@ABSTRACT_MUSIC one thing id really be interested in finding a way to do would be inputting live voice then pitch shifting it while you play or record. I know the recording process can be a little multilayered with the mpc. Im still getting the ropes down.
Hello could you do a video on how you connect the sp 404 mk2 to your mpc live 2 ?
I usually create everything on one track and add this all in different sections of the track with automation that way it affects both the drums and the melody.
Your way is much faster however I don’t see how you would record the effects in precisely where you’d want them to be.
how do I then record those effects?
want an mpc so bad 😩
🙏 🙏🙏
Clip Programs next maybe ?
Make a video about flex beat, how to work with them. 👍👍👍👍👍
I just bought MPC live II and I don't know how to start work with...last time I jamming is 1994 on the cheap pc
Do you have any Idea how to record automation with this method? I tried to record automation using this method and it doesn't work. Any help/suggestions?
There's a little icon in the upper right corner, with the letter R on it. If you tap it, the R will turn into a W. R stands for "read" and W stands for "write". If you want to record automation, set it to W, then back to R when you're done.
@@SynthApprentice When I tried it didn't record automation on these effects and q-links while doing this method from the video. Meanwhile I updated my MPC and I will try again, thanks.
I tried again and I doesnt let me write those automations unfortunately. :(
How do I save as a template? Actually you can make a template and charge us $1 for the load file
How you record record the submix?
Unfortunately you can't record the submix. But I know of a way to record these effects on your entire beat, if you convert your beat into a sequence and then automate these effects on the program. I can make a video on this if you're interested
Can this be automated?
Can't automate on submixes unfortunately....u can automate xy on program inserts
Dope💯🚒🔥🧨🧯
Huh 😂 a 2 track beat ? 😢
MPC reverb and delay effects just aren’t as good the SP’s. You can do it all on the MPC but it won’t sound as good. I am a MPC owner and don’t have a SP but know it is better in effects.
I agree. This is just a way to have fun on your MPC if you don't own an SP. I also own an SP and love it. Thanks for watching!
the extensive menu diving would just make me want to use a computer
If you had to do it every time yeah. But just like in a DAW, it would be best to save this as a template for future use
You're really complaining about menu diving? You must be so young.
Too much diving
Appreciate the share trying to get the live 🔥🤌
What is the difference between this model and the Mpc one?
This model has an internal battery and speaker. Also More INS and OUTS. This model is more expensive as well.
@@ABSTRACT_MUSIC very interesting, i think I will go with this one looks very nice! Thanks for the info I appreciate you.
