Akai Force Quick Guide: Workflow Tips

[@skarcreative]

This was so helpful. I've watched basically every force tutorial on youtube, and you're showing tips that nobody else has even touched upon. Thank you so much.

[@cannoli5658]

That 3 fingers time division tip is gold. Thanks!

[@RobertSaxy]

Hands down the most useful videos on the internet for this stuff is yours just like this one

[@danecustance2734]

Nice, your tips are top notch dude, and i hope that you're back on it in life n all that.

[@NewBlueFunk]

recently got my force. Been used to using Live but wanted something for more dynamic live performance. This has really helped :)

[@knobsbuttons2632]

I just wanted to say thanks for the guide and hope things are going better for you.

[@ziggdog116]

First video of yours I have seen here. I think you just might be a beast. Thinking hard about getting a Force, and your demo is definitely pushing me towards copping one. Thnxs for your time and knowledge. You did a real service with this video. Cheers.

[@jeffereyjefferey7152]

Brilliant, I wouldn't have thought about using button holds like this. Thank you!

[@mekhicoffer710]

Thank you man. Only good force tutorials

[@Mode-7]

Really interesting. I have to try this out. Thanks for the knowledge!

[@ricobenavides]

I did'nt know about that three finger time division trick. Thanks for sharing! 👊

[@4130jase]

Glad you're back great tips as always.

[@SticksAandstonesBozo]

The best way you can get out of a rut on a piece of gear is watch stuff like this. I basically forgot the step sequencer existed lol.

[@studioviper3016]

Good to see you back.. hope things are doing better for ya now

[@garret765]

[@laserbeak43]

[@Loopingstar]

Thanks so much for these Force videos. Really love the way you explain things .......sort of in a non technical way ....all makes sense to me anyway ! Just waiting for the DHL man to turn up with my Force later today 😁

[@Noise-Conductor]

Cool tips & I hope things are nice for u. Peace!

[@johndawad]

Good stuff mate.

[@JX3D]

Great tutorial. Thanks ;-)

[@ceverett5972]

I learned a lot from this one. Are you still available for private sessions?

[@nicethings]

Hiya, yeah I've started doing em, drop me an email

[@studioviper3016]

How about this for a series of videos... You set yourself a challenge to make a tune in say 30 minutes for the first video. Then for the 2nd video, you do the same thing, only the new tune uses the same project file as the 1st tune. And you have to use one element from the previous tune in your next tune? Repeat this a few times and then at the end, when you've made a bunch of tunes/patterns, you do a little live performance of all the tunes you've made?

[@yourwrightyourworld]

Good stuff!

[@jason3534]

My Force has been freezing up and crashing. Five times yesterday. I don’t know what’s going on with it. Had it for four months now. I am using a SD card 500 gigs I got off of wish so maybe that’s it. Maybe it’s the splice samples routed to the SD? Akai didn’t answer and zzounds where I got it from didn’t know neither. Has yours froze at all? Mine came with the latest firmware.

[@nicethings]

Could be that. If you’re streaming over WiFi to a removable drive while active, might lead to glitches. I these new Akai products prefer direct access from internal drives. Try making sure the files are completely downloaded while playing and creating.

[@ziggdog116]

Yo Nicethings, is there a way to create substeps in a sequence on the Force for intermittent rolls or studders like what's they show at 1:30 in this video for the Polyend Tracker? kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6K9hmmdabyrhrs Don't think I've seen this demonstrated with Force...

[@nicethings]

Yep, there’s quite a few way to create rolls. As I think you are meaning ‘snare to fill’ that can be done in clip edit: Grid > select the part/s > split events. Unfortunately, you still have to manually spread them. If you don’t like using ARP for rolls, you can also do them with STEP SEQ, and adjust in realtime.

[@ziggdog116]

Thnx, if you can adjust in real time, then that's what I'm interested in. Appreciate the insight. 👍
