I'm not sure if I've commented this video before. But I've watched it many times and it's the DEFINITIVE Pad Parameters video ever made. Congratulations and thank you.
I think This video is single handily one of the most overlooked aspects to the live !! There’s nothing more uninspiring then finding a dope sample and trying to chop it up and assign it to pads and then mid work flow, all your samples have changed and are affected! I didn’t understand at first and couldn’t figure it out! Coming from the mpc1000 & the maschine mk1 it was def more user friendly. Seeing this def gave me more insight. Thanks for this
So this basically means that in “non destructive” the slice information is stored with your sample and with “pad parameters” the slice information is stored in the program.
It's even more annoying than that, because with non-destructive there's a lot of bs going on where one change to the sample, with affect all instances of that sample in use. It is _NOT_ non-destructive. It is more so... just linked and using a single sample. And yeah, it isn't cut in a destructive way, but it's annoying you can't have a non-destructive sample on several pads that you have edited differently. To make matters worse, if you do use Pad Parameters, you still can have linked pads that change at the same time. There's weird stuff going on, requiring you to actually copy the sample 'to a new pad'.
@@PHeMoX turning off "link slices" in the chop window should fix that particular issue, if you want to use non-destructive slices.
This cleared up a huge amount of confusion for me. I salute you.
Thanks MD!
Thanks this was the first time I actually understood the difference. To summarise non destructive makes universal changes to every version of the same slice.
Pad parameters makes local unique changes to each version of the slice.
So well-explained and simplified. I haven’t understood this since i got my MPC but now I do.
Huge props! Man this is a key focus area. Thank you so much. The fact you thought to make a video on it shows you are a master.
Just found your channel on a fluke. Glad this came up. Thanks for sharing
Just subscribed over the weekend and been going through all your videos. I love them! I'm getting my MPC LIve tomorrow and can't wait! Keep up the great vids!
Hey thanks for watching my videos, hope they come handy for your new mpc.
That intro is 🔥🔥🔥🔥beat and visuals
Your videos have sold me more on getting a Live 2 than Akais own demo/lesson videos on their own channel have!
It's worth it. I'm about to take mine into the woods and make beats
Thank you so much for explaining it this way. It was super easy to follow after watching your other videos ! Just one question. Could you give me an example when you would actually use non destructive slices ? Why do we get the option.
Have a good day
That's a great question, one that I ask myself a lot of times. I think it might be just an old standard
way of cutting that they want to keep for
compatibility from old mpc's. It's also useful if you are working with the same sound in different pads using simultaneous play for example, in case you want to trim the sound, all the pads get trimmed also.
Thanks for this video. I've hit a wall a few times trying to figure out the difference between the 2 options. I'll try this tonight!@@mpchead
It's really helpful when using a looong sample (i.e. whole song) that you want to use parts from in different programs. this way you don't have to make copies for parts of the sample. Or if you want to use same slices, but slightly change the chops in different programs. or if you want to adjust slice parameters without affecting all other programs with the same sample. I've stumbled upon this many times :)
love this bro. ive never really gotten the gist of this, even from reading the mpc bible. this was the ONLY part of the newest crop of MPCs (live/x/one) that i just didn't master. so thank you it was more helpful than i could state here.
by the by, you sound like a younger Michael Rapaport before he started yelling all the time. :)
have watched this a few times and it's always helpful.
Brand new to the mpc world just ordered my mpc live comes Friday watching all your videos to get prepared .
Thanks for posting this. Been trying to get my head around this just today and found this, which helped IMMENSELY!
thanks for tuning in J Brown
thanks .please more
This just made so much click for me. thank you for the crystal clear explanation!!
Really good. Thanx and propz from germany
Dude, so glad I found your video. Just got an MPC and was super confused with those. Thanks!
Great video! Thanks mate 👍
Thank you!!
Thanks for clearing that right up for me.
thanks marlow!
Thank you!
The more I try to learn the live, the more I miss my 2500 with jjos xl. Im learning the MPC Live and I think they left out a lot of simple and efficient features from the older models, but somehow managed to keep a lot of complicated annoying ideas from the older ones. Imma keep goin,g but it's been a few weeks and it definitely feels more like a daw to me than an mpc. Hopefully this changes!
Thanks for your help though! Appreciated bro.
This was so helpful. Thank you.
Oh yeah man, this is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks man.
Thank you. Interesting!😊
Good joint
You just made my life so much simpler... Thanks

Bro I love your beats I’m not nice with the chops like you.
Excellent explanation. Thx!
I found a Touch in a pawn shop (after getting rid of my NI Maschine)I've been trying to learn it since 2019 watching other videos. I could not understand how to assign sliced samples to each pad. Yours was the only video that broke it down. One point though...when you go into Chop then Threshold the Chopped section would appeared then when I looked closely at the video I saw your Threshold was set to 50. That where I was having the issues. My Threshold was set to 1. The video helped, thanks.
This was helpful!!! I'm starting to learn better about this particular feature more and more which also helps for drums sounds.
Thank you for clearing that one up!
Gold, thanks! Any ideas on good sidechaining workaround without external gear?
not really sorry, I use volume automation for similar effect but not the best way to do it.
" Lean on me"......
Great tutorial
Perfect. Thank you.
👍👍
In deed, very helpful..Dankeschön 🤖
Nice explanation, thanks alot
Very good to know, thx!
This saved me a great deal of aggravation.
I need some help, I've chopped my sample up into 8 slices in sample edit I've pressed shift non destructive slices etc, then I've gone to my main screen found the sample but only one pad plays, and when I chopped 16 slices and went to main only 7 played, am I missing something?
excellent man!!!!
Very good video keep going.
Awesome video homie!!
Cool. Can you tell where from is that preset you sampled
I created those samples
What about converting and saving the parameters as slices and bouncing to new individual samples?
Thank you for making this video.. I noticed when you were doing the Free Sounds portion you went to pad perimeters to chop them up. When you did this did you add them to a new track?
I’m having a problem, everythme I cut a sample and work with the sample program I do my chopps and I want to add more different chopps on the top in a different track and I can’t record because one sample kind of cancel each other, even with poly on global. Does anybody know how to fix it?
If samples cancel each other out you're either in a global mono for the program or the pad or a mute group.
great vid my dude .would you know how to do this in a daw ,fl studio ? i think what your explaining is my problem
This was an awesome vid. Thanks. Is it possible to export my slices as individual WAV files?
Thanks. Yes you can export individual samples, on the main screen pencil next to the program you'll find a menu with that option.
@@mpchead ok, that's great. Only if there was a way to bulk export all samples at once. Would've been good
Thanks
The MPC software really should support for individual pad parameters that are not linked by default. If it's non-destructive stuff, why not have unique pad parameters for example for tuning, whilst just keeping the same sample? The fact it changes the tuning on all instances of even a pad parameter sliced pad is very annoying. You have to actually 'copy and create a new sample' to get that done, apparently.
Is it the same if I open an existing program (saved as non destructive) in a new program/song? Or does it save a new version in te new project folder??
Basically is it best practice to use Pad Parameters??
what does the create events option do when creating a new program?
It's basically asking you if you want to right midi notes on the grid. According to the length of the sample and the amount of bars. Try it out and you'll see.
mpc head don’t you write midi notes on the grid without it checked ?
Yes I do. But imagine I have a 2 bar drum loop that I chop into several chops. I can create events and directly create midi events without having to record them. Saves some time sometimes.
liqidu I’m still lost bruh make a video about the difference 😕
Very helpful thanks mate👍🏼 Question please. How do I save a chopped and pad assigned set of samples in my files to call upon later? I.e i chop and assign a kit of samples to 16 pads that I call “Richards favorite kit”, but I wish to call upon that kit at a later time? I’m a fresh as they come and only about 5 hours in to my first Akai MPC. I’ve got the sampling/chopping process down thanks to your vids, but just can’t seem to comprehend how to save the “kit” for another time. Cheers and thanks in advance ✌🏼
Save as a program, in the main window go to the pencil icon on the right of the program and you'll find Save Program.
Marlow Digs - mpc head oh my god that’s so easy! Thankyou for the super fast response. I was looking within the sampler for this function. Champion, thanks again 🙏
Hello! One question! When I sample I try to have really good chops but I hear some clicking sounds when recording my own stuff with the chopped up samples. The original sample/loop is good but when I sample it and I record my own stuff after I hear some clicks on the melody. Any idea on how to solve that? :)) It is really annoying because it doesn't happen all the time. Some beats are cool but on some of them I hear some clicking. I make all my beats on the MPC Live (stand-alone).
Is it in the middle of the sample or at the end or start of the sample?
@@mpchead during the melody, yes, it is in the middle. But it doesn't happen to all the beats. :))
Are you hearing the clicks after recording (importing) the samples in your MPC, or are you hearing them after chopping and recording a new pattern with the chops?
If it’s the second one, you probably need to try to fine tune the start/end points of your slices, and if that doesn’t work, go into your envelope parameters to add some attack and adjust the release of the slices, until the clicks/pops disappear.
@@akkyo3595 when recording new pattern with the chops :))
Thanks! ✌🔥
How do you get it to warp with the same tempo if you do it in pad parameters
you on the IG AKA GRAM ?? Whats Your Handle ??
yeah, @mpchead 👍🏻
All my samples are popping and clipping...
Try fine adjusting start/end points, and if it doesn’t help, you can use the envelope parameters and adjust the attack and release of your slices.
@@akkyo3595 it’s strange bro...they pop in the edit window, then when u convert them...they don’t! Ha
@@LoDaKid strange indeed... oh well, I guess as long as you don’t hear them after recording a new pattern, you’re all good! 👌😅
how do you automatically assign slices to the pads after sampler
right after you sample you get a pop up window asking you if you want to assign the smple to a program.
But people have to find the sample tempo first and then set it to the newly discovered tempo
Hey i put my chops in fours (lol)
Thanks!
Thanks...
