Most excellent Ben!!!

You are the best bro👍🏽

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

That Thin E Pees sounds great. The work seems meticulously done. Do any patches have loop points set for drones?

🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢🟢 Best Addition to my MPC This Bundle Rocks Period.. Thanks Ben🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

Good idea I'll give that ago in software, I don't have a MPC.

Ben, great video Am looking for strings (harp, violin, upright bass..), brass (trumpets, trombones, sax, flutes),woodwinds, tuba Trying to build my sound library now I have all of the drums I need (ea Ski drum) however I know it's not possible to get all of these in one bundle Can you recommend a place to shop

Great video and walkthrough, brother! I've been so busy over the summer and haven't even spent much time in my studio or with my MPCX. Just hearing these sounds again reminds me that I want them all and will eventually get them after all the gigging subsides from the busy season. Hoping all is well my friend 🙏🏼🎹

Some of the most amazing sounds available on any workstation. bar none. Thank you for the excellent work Ben

Ben, your sampling skills are excellent.

Good work. Sounds good brother.

🔥👊🧡👍🔥

I'm a drummer, that's good 👍

🔥👊🧡👍🔥

Straight funky!

What's insane is that I have an actual guitar (Godin xtsa) with a midi out. I want to control a guitar simulator with a real guitar.

So you dont need a separate power cable for midi keyboards?

I had the Fantom X8 for about 12 years, sold it about 4 years ago. My biggest gripe about it was the volume output on it was way too low. That, and the sounds just seemed to sound cheesier and more dated with each passing year. Mine was expanded with cards and it had the max sampler memory. The sampler is a joke, way too cumbersome and limiting, way easier to do that in software on a laptop. The acoustic pianos were weak next to my Yamaha CP300. On the positive side, it is a well-made keyboard, hand-built in Japan, maybe the last of the flagships that Roland still made in Japan. The keyboard action is outstanding on it, with aftertouch. I miss the keyboard feel of that board, but nothing else. Regarding the Fantom G8, I played one once at Guitar Center, and I could hear the higher fidelity of the sounds compared to the X8, and the keyboard action was also excellent.

Nice

I mostly agree with what you are saying, one has to assume that the NI coders will eventually get up to speed with the hardware. I will stay that they've been promising a template editor but have yet to deliver this basic functionality. I've come really close to picking up a used MK2 but decided against it when I realized that various models can't co-exist (I have an S88MK3 and an M32).

The Talking in the background is disturbing

Great vid Ben.. Like you I'm an EP Junkie.. Can you do a video and reveal the source of those plugins? How are you getting 3rd party apps in Maschine?

Wow, your tracks sound great regardless of keyboards or Groveboxes you are using!❤ 👀

Hi, been long time watcher. How do you get Toontrack and Roland cloud in there? I have the MK2. Thanks

Trust the mk2 is still the sheeeesssss.

Nice vid ben

Freaking sick song 🎉

Hi Ben Great video I was wondering whether you could use two MPC X at the same is there any benefits of using two? I see that you originally had the MPC X and now you have the MPC X SE Used to have you got rid of one thanks for your time

OK thats dope! Where did you get this from???

Sold my super 6 because i was very unhappy with it. Interface was shit, firmware was shit, super one dimensional, i could go on. This seems so much better. The patch at 2:21 was unreal. Your chords are amazing. Both the patch and chords remind me of Lone or Sam Gellaitry.

Outstanding

What do you like about the Force

2:10 Bit.....

Bro, how do I get those drum sounds? I need those. Talk to me let’s work something out.

I just got a mint condition one...Love it...Enjoyed your Video

I have the Xv-5080 lifetime license but find it unusable for live performance. If I don’t hook my laptop to the internet frequently, it starts cutting out and making random noises presumably because it needs to validate the license periodically. This has led to some embarrassing live performances. If it gave a warning that license needs to be validated, then maybe I could live with it.

Thank you for your time, and showing us how to do this.

Great explanation. Thanks!

How are you using the force? To date you have been a Mpc user. It was funny to see you with one as they are workflow wise very different.

Personally I hope it’s not the last update , I just got the fantom for £3k including the ex brand new as it seems this update made it more what I was looking for, sold my Kronos as the feel was not as good, and the piano would cut notes off while I was playing,never had that on my Oasys or anything else I’ve owned for a long time. Anyway after getting an rd2000 and loving the feel and some sounds, the v piano allows unlimited polyphony, fantastic, so now I can have all the sounds I loved on my jd800, an1x, jp8000, xv stuff, Jupiter on the list goes on. Genius. Just trying to get my head around the tr rec mode. For certain things and I’ll probably do the same as you stick to the Mpc x for sequencing. Will also try pushing it all to logic to finish a track off.

Hey man great video and music on this machine well done! Do you ever used the footswitches on it to perform while playing guitar or have your hands busy playing an instrument to trigger with your feet some parameters on it as change pads/clis and scenes pre recorded to arrange a full structure of a song live or even for record/stop/play for example ? I’m considering to change my workflow from a looper artist perspective to something like that to be able to build more complex projects and but still a bit scary to face this “all in one” type of machine but this one seems absolutely a dream of a gear for me if I manage to learn it properly 😅 any advice, tips, encouragements will be very much appreciated sir, cheers and thanks for the great video🙏🏽

controller mode is where its at. period. not sure why so many hype on stand alone anyway.

I tried to download back from Akai, but then in my computer it doesn’t let me open it it says I don’t have the right application to open it up. I kind of hit a wall.

hey, what preset u used for the motif there?

I made a long detailed video about the Roland XV-5080, on how to do things like import/export patches + format & load samples + best ways to store patches & samples, etc. I also go in depth on how to use the ZuluSCSI V6.4 and Chicken Systems Translator 7. If anyone is interested: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJ_QgHSVp9p8kJYsi=vKzpkq3YHJ2WW7oU

Why are the MPC’s so underpowered? It’s kinda funny.

This seems legit, but can you please be just a little less white so that I can I understand what you’re saying?

Do you have any sounds for native instruments maschine

Super cool! I have a Fantom connected to the MPC Live 2 as my sequencer… I’m relatively new to this but would you be able to maybe show in a tutorial how to use the keyboard sounds on a MPC where you’d have a keyboard in my case Fantom that operates as midi controller?
