This is phenomenal. I've been skimming through people messing around with the mpc live ii. Hands down the smoothest thing I've been able to find.

[@seykobeats]

Thank you so much my friend 🙏🏻 I'm really happy to hear your opinion!

[@nicholasbrewer2394]

Covert the vinyl and I digital format then or fuck it

I’m on the fence whether to buy a MPC 61 or just another live ii😂

Beats are the heartbeats of music, pulsating with rhythm and energy, intertwining with the melodies to create an irresistible symphony that moves the soul.

[@CoreyCoka]

Can you do a video on how you reverb and delay the sample chops ?

[@bayleycourtland]

Probably a dumb question, but when you move the record backwards, does that damage the vinyl? I want to get into sampling vinyl, but I am worried to damage some of my favorite records.

[@isaacwright3590]

Yes but it’s worth it.

[@therealckonmixcloud1733]

Yes but to a lesser extent than if a Stanton stylus/needle/cartridge was used instead of a Concord needle. I found the latter could even scratch your record, if not careful, but produced better quality. If you were having fun scratching & beat juggling all day the Stanton was kinder to my vinyl records. God bless. Have a nice weekend.

[@DeeMacias]

Yes it gets damaged but records are stronger than people think, and the tiny space you spin back is so tiny that you don't here any noise when normally played. Besides it needs to be played back and forth many many times before the damage becomes audible.

[@marlondaniels7912]

[@DjStair]

This is fire. Is that a delay effect you’re using on some of the chops or which plugin is that ?

[@seykobeats]

Thank you! Yes.. it’s “delay sync” effect of the Mpc.

[@bodya3464]

What songs did you use to sample in this beat?

[@TimeHater420]

You already had some sounds preloaded

[@syneman1]

How does the MPC live II compare to an Ipad and Koala?

[@jaemez3247]

brilliant spacing of each sample. Are you adding delay and reverb?

[@therealckonmixcloud1733]

Sounded more like a simple echo on the samples. Might have a touch of reverb but hard to tell because the recording is capturing the room environment. I prefer a slight touch of reverb on my samples especially if I was sampling "My Love", otherwise it sounds too dry, but not as much as is used in modern hiphop where a Valhalla DSP plug in is often utilised. God bless. Have a nice weekend.

[@The_MAiTrix]

How do you layer the lyrics from the sample into the sample chops

[@leogolive]

I have that same turntable. I was just listening to some records looking for samples and I found the same album on Spotify that I have on vinyl. I can’t lie, it sounded better when I sampled it from Spotify than from the vinyl. I think I’m done sampling from vinyl unless it’s something that I can’t find on Spotify.

[@carteldelamus]

Whats the name of original song?

[@Cohen-c8b]

What is that sampler called??

[@gigaz4596]

fire !!!!!

[@THEBRAINNN]

Do you find theres any differents from vinyl rips to actually using a turrntable?

[@therealckonmixcloud1733]

This is The Real CK & professional DJ & producer for over 30 years. Yes there will be a difference depending on who has ripped the vinyl. The set up, back in the day, was to have 2 Technics 1210s , a mixer, amp, speakers, keyboard and an AKAI sampler. Mine was the MPC2000XL but I also used ENSONIQs. We all bought vinyl back then, called "diggin' in the crates"

[@Paddydacook]

i wanna start sampling vinyl aswell. do you need a special kind of turntable or needle to scratch the record back or can you do this with anyone?

[@therealckonmixcloud1733]

It is better to have a mixer and x2 technics 1210s if you want to properly emulate/reproduce what we used to do back in the 90s up to the mid 00s. Also use a Stanton needle as it delivers more bass from a vinyl record than the concord stylus. Concord produces a more CD quality rip but Stantons were used more for beat production because we also sampled ourselves scratching. God bless and have a nice weekend

[@Paddydacook]

@@therealckonmixcloud1733 thank you man! i guess i have to save the money. i wanna do this authentic

[@Nefarion90]

What kind of device do you need to record a track from vinyl to MPC? You can't just record it directly, can you?

[@seykobeats]

Yes you can.. you just have to connect the turntable output to the mpc input. 👍🏼

[@Nefarion90]

@@seykobeats Oh, ok, thanks! It's just that I've read somewhere that you need an external audio interface or a preamp to do that.

[@Laze-Mz]

Do you feel streaming killed sampling ?

[@therealckonmixcloud1733]

No. Streaming killed mix "tape" sales and closed down vinyl record stores. i.e Streaming had an effect on the distribution of the end product and not the creative process. Plenty of music today getting millions of views containing old skool EPMD (for example) samples for which Eric Sermon is most pleased with the royalty ($700,000)

[@kingech_B15]

That was too easy for you.

[@madai2550]

Does anyone know where i can found more beats like this one (just the beat, no lyrics)

[@therealckonmixcloud1733]

Try Pete Rock's Instrumentals "Petestrumentals". There are several albums with loads of beats like this. I used to play Pete Rock and/or 9th Wonder instrumentals on vinyl in nightclubs back in the 90s and early 00s. Good luck
