This guy does an exceptional tutorial explain this task....The Best I've seen so far...Very thorough, simple and detailed..Thanks

[@LiftedNoise]

🙏

[@afroflavaradiotopten9835]

He’s been the best I’ve run across for sure. Thank you!

[@biggwillbeats4384]

Missed these early vids⁉️ After nearly a year of having my own MPC Live , this series is great as refresher course ; very thorough ‼️ thanks again @LiftedNoise

[@LiftedNoise]

🙏 happy there helpful to you. 👊 just checked out your channel a bit and subscribed. Keep it up bro!

[@78fenderPbass]

I just picked one of these up last week and you cover things that are really important to get up and running. Just the file management stuff is a little tricky but your explanation makes it an easy to grasp concept. Love this machine already! Thanks for taking the time!

[@LiftedNoise]

That's awesome! I'm happy to help 🙏 thank You for stopping by and leaving a comment. Let me know if you ever have a question answered.

[@CaidicusProductions]

Thanks for this video, it helped answer my question of how to save samples so I could use them in other projects.

[@LiftedNoise]

No doubt 🙏✌ glad I could help!

[@lindasson]

Bro..your videos are are amazing, especially for a rookie like myself! I subscribe to your channel not too long ago while I was going back and forth between buying a Maschine MK3 or the MPC Live, and I bought the MPC Live yesterday and I wanna tell you that your tutorials are extremely helpful homie and much appreciated. Please keep them coming bro lol. God Bless!

[@someguyina997]

Thx for this vid my guy. I've been using my MPC live for more than a year and I would always browse my sounds before each project. Crazy I know. Just watched this vid again and now cut my prep time in half. THANK YOU. -DmnDaniel

[@LiftedNoise]

Glad to hear it it. 🙏 Did you watch my template video, having a template will cut your time down again a whole lot more too.

[@someguyina997]

@@LiftedNoise I sure did!!! LOL right after this one...before this, everytime I made a beat it was like I was using my MPC for the first time LOLOLOLOLOLOL (and I have 100s of beats done on it)

[@LiftedNoise]

@@someguyina997 🤣 yea me too for the longest time, I didn't have a template until I made this video. 🤦‍♂️ a lot of time wastes, all that setup every time can really kill the vibe too.

[@johnnyrocco123]

I am not familiar with Akai products so this thing has been a huge learning curve. Right now I am just using it as a drum machine, so this video was a life saver. Thank you!!! Now to figure out how to sequence, and used some keys groups. I hope you have more vids!! lol

[@LiftedNoise]

Hey no doubt, you're welcome. I definitely do have more vids. Heres one on sequencing if you haven't found it already. kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6vbdGxqqLySoM0

[@steveperry7799]

Thank you for these MPC videos....New to this machine. Very helpful... as the manual is not!

[@LiftedNoise]

Yo my pleasure, glad it helps! If you have any questions throw em out there. I think I'll end up making videos out of some of these questions in the comments.

[@bernardgeorge8587]

i appreciate you lifted noise, your explanations are very concise you take the time to explain very clearly every step and the ramifications , i just got my mpc live and i am new to every aspect of it , so you can imagine my ignorance of it from the jump. i got a roland 909 sequencer which the process of sequencing and recording is much simpler but I've had it for a while it the function buttons have done their time and i also wanted to delve into something more up to date so thank you , i would very much like to pick your brain in the near future about some more topics for example i stumbled upon how to set the mpc live to do auto save but i am not happy with it because it keeps saving in the middle of every move i make every so often i wanna set it back to normal but i forgot where i got the info from and i can't seem to find my way back to putting back the way it was. if you have some tips for me i would surely appreciate that. thank you.

[@LiftedNoise]

🙏 thank You. Very encouraging. Go ahead pick away and also I looked into the auto save. When you press menu, at the top of the screen is cog/wheel icon. This is your preferences, once you press this to the left there is a PROJECT LOAD/SAVE option, press on it, from there you will see an AUTO SAVE ENABLED check box. Uncheck it. You should be back to just saving manually.

[@ODMASTA]

Thanks for the vid.. I might just keep my mpc live after all..

[@LiftedNoise]

I hope you do, it's great! Check out update 2.3 if you haven't already.

[@ODMASTA]

Im a first time mpc user and I find the learning curve very difficult. I appreciate vids like yours that explain things in a easily understandable way..i'm working on complete stand alone because my computor is 32 bit . I prefer a stand alone any ways, other wise I'd stick to fl studio..Thanks again..@@LiftedNoise

[@LiftedNoise]

@@ODMASTA well I prefer standalone as well, you've found the right channel 😎 I put out about a new video a week, next up I'll be going over the grid view. If you need help with anything specific just let me know.

[@amenrafootworkharmonix8595]

Great vid

[@12tribes61]

If working in one sequence and you want to use multiple drum programs you need to record it to a new track each time otherwise it will overwrite existing program and play pads hits from previous program

[@djcoolcliff]

Great tutorial sir!!! Curious, how do you remove samples out of the sample pool if you not using them after you purge?

[@LiftedNoise]

I don't think they'd still be there. All samples that aren't being used, I believe this means samples not within a program, will be removed when you press purge.

[@TitanWave1]

Salute and thank you🏆

[@LiftedNoise]

[@alstreetrapbeatprofessiona4659]

Thank you!

[@KarasamaBeats]

Guys I really need a big help from yall ! The Akai MPC LIVE II , is it a " Dual Voltage" or " Single Voltage" ? Couldnt find anything on the internet regarding this. I ordered the retro edition and shipping it to India where the power supply varies. So i need to accordingly purchase converters and adapters to safely use my MPC

[@LiftedNoise]

Damn bro 🤷‍♂️ I have no idea. I hope you figured it out...?

[@KarasamaBeats]

@@LiftedNoise Bro check the adapter the Mpc came with . Does it say 100-240V 50-60hz ? if so it’s a dual voltage device then . if not then it’s a single voltage device .

[@LiftedNoise]

@@KarasamaBeats definitely I will check for you. Give me a moment.

[@KarasamaBeats]

@@LiftedNoise Thnx so much G ! I really hope it’s a Dual voltage device . In that case we just need a universal adapter and the mpc can be safely used anywhere in the world without worrying about the voltage output , like 110v USA , 220v India , cuz the black adapter acts as a voltage step down/up converter .

[@LiftedNoise]

@@KarasamaBeatsI think you are in luck bro.. it says INPUT 100-240 Vac, 1.5A 50-60Hz DC OUTPUT 19.0V 3.42A 65.0W

[@spitsickbeats4721]

Besides "Purge" how can u exclude tons of sounds not used in program song, but were auto loaded with pre made kits chosen from? Thanks.

[@LiftedNoise]

I believe purge is the only way. You could unassign the samples you dont want from the program and then purge. Your only options with purge are UNUSED SAMPLES meaning samples within a program or ALL SAMPLES meaning everything within a program

[@MarcoCastilloWorld]

Great videos, I got a machine recently and still learning, I just miss not have a stop/play pedal, I know it can be done via sys midi I guess. Anyways, thumbs up!

[@LiftedNoise]

The maschine is a great, your using both that and the MPC LIVE? Thanks for the thumbs up!

[@MrTCass]

Awesome video , question ; How do i save projects to to external hard drive?

[@philnash222]

Great vid bro. Do you know if there’s a way to purge unused samples in standalone mode?

[@LiftedNoise]

Yes. The little folder icon at the top of the main screen gives you options to save and also purge any samples that aren't being used in a program.

[@philnash222]

Lifted Noise thanks brother. Gona try it out ASAP

[@philnash222]

Lifted Noise I found what you’re talking about. Everything is exactly as you said but when I press the (purge) unused samples button nothing happens after that 🤷🏾‍♂️ 🤔

[@LiftedNoise]

@@philnash222 are you sure your samples aren't being used in a program? If any the samples you want to purge are assigned to a pad or even in an audio track i think, they won't be purged. Make sure to remove them first and then do the purge.

[@philnash222]

Lifted Noise oh ok word. That’s the probably then. I got a clear the pads! Thanks bro. Never would’ve figured that out.

[@MrTCass]

I save the Program ,sequences & more as a project .

[@LiftedNoise]

Definitely, me too. There are some situations where I'll save samples or programs separately too if I know I'll want to use them within other projects.

[@xVinceCx]

Search! Dang I never noticed that....thanks!

[@LiftedNoise]

👊 no doubt

[@IAmDamiani]

Question, can you delete the default expansion programs?

[@LiftedNoise]

Try going in the Browser to Places>Internal and deleting the contents inside the Expansion folder

[@IAmDamiani]

@@LiftedNoise in sample edit, how can I save sample to wav without saving to program and is there a way to loop sample in sample edit screen?

[@LiftedNoise]

I don't think you can save from sample edit. That had been a thought of mine as feature that should be implemented.

[@LiftedNoise]

Yes you should be able to loop, try pressing another pad, don't remember which plays back in a loop

[@toomuchtobmac]

Just fyi you can double tap the button rather than holding shift. Just a tidbit. I LOVE the LIVE.

[@LiftedNoise]

It's been awhile since I did this video. Are you referring to a note repeat thing or something else? 🙏

[@toomuchtobmac]

@@LiftedNoise I was just talkin about how you can like double tap "main" and go directly to browse or whatever.

[@LiftedNoise]

@@toomuchtobmac oh gotcha! You're right. That makes it easy, thanks bro!

[@toomuchtobmac]

@@LiftedNoise I enjoyed the vid. Regardless of when it was made, somebody learns somethin from everywhere everyday. Keep droppin' knowledge!

Word. Haven't visited these vids in while. I had no idea. 🙏

[@mpclive5693]

Can individual pads be set to " Note on / One shot?

[@LiftedNoise]

Yes they definitely can be!

[@dblockvillin]

How do u upload a whole kit on all pads at once

[@LiftedNoise]

You have to load the .xpn drum program file. If it doesn't have one you would have to program it yourself. When you load a sample individually it gives you an option where to assign it, you can select where by pressing a pad. Hope this helps.

[@dblockvillin]

Lifted Noise ok thanks

[@jonlee88398]

How do you keep your program away from being flooded with sample sounds and just keep your saved projects?

[@LiftedNoise]

I don't understand the question could you rephrase it some other way. You can save projects which will contain programs or also save programs individually for use later in other projects. Am I close to answering your question?

[@jonlee88398]

Lifted Noise I’ll save a project into my program and whenever I go back to my program to find it it’ll Pop up the past sample instrument I had used. Makes it look like a clutter. Do you have an IG I could send a clip

[@LiftedNoise]

@@jonlee88398 for sure, hit me up on Instagram @ Lifted Noise.

[@CatLover-g7j]

When you purge does the MPC permanently delete those samples from its internal memory?

[@LiftedNoise]

It does not delete them permanently, they are still saved internally and can be loaded again. When you do a purge they are just removed from the current project and it frees up space in the sampling ram.

[@CatLover-g7j]

Word...Thank you! Keep the MPC videos coming. Its starting to sell very well. Amazon UK is completely Sold out!!

[@LiftedNoise]

@@CatLover-g7j nice thanks for the comment!

[@chadmuskaa2806]

When you load a " instrument" does it automatically create a new keygroup and program for each?

[@LiftedNoise]

@@chadmuskaa2806 no it doesn't, creating a keygroup requires a bit more editing although the MPC LIVE does come with some stock keygroups you can load up and instantly play.

[@SirBamBam404]

bro you skipped over how to play sounds you just turned knob
