AKAI MPC One - How to Make/Assign/Use/Save Custom Drum Kit Programs

[@kirkstate]

I recently just started doing this....making my own programs in the MPC X...makes things easier

[@charleslemon6723]

You're officially the best when it comes to breaking down the MPC ONE-Thank u!

[@africanmaan]

I highly appreciate how meticulous you were in covering the process. This one video is saving folks a ton of time headache. Thank you.

[@drcustomblades2984]

Very Helpful thank you so much for all the tutorials you put out!! You should be awarded a PHD by AKAI PRO!! Thanks again!!!

[@oO5Dynasty]

Nice you always help the community! Nice I don’t have the one but I’m a still watch to show support. Thank you again for the support you provide the community!

[@RhythmRepertoire]

I’ve been watching all your vids on the mpc one. It’s been slowly shining the light on the process but waaayy faster than it would’ve took me on my own! Much appreciated!

[@DocHalliday]

Thank you for these uploads. I'm supernoob right now, and these vids are helping me unbreak my brain when it comes to the workflow and controls. Respect.

[@rickbustamante]

Dude, you have seriously saved me SO much time, I'm only on my 4th day and keep referring back to find shit out, you are a LIFESAVER brother! I've just been able to load my original sounds and make a kit, save it, make a beat, save it, all on my SD card, thanks so much, your the best man, peace...

[@baltergeistsound8366]

Super helpful vid, new user of the MPC One and I've been trying to figure out how to get a Tom Waits junkyard kit into it. Now I know!

[@Dubbudha]

Even more useful if you always use the same pads for the same type of sounds. For example: 1 to 4 for your kicks, 5 to 8 for your snares and so on. This way you can exchange your drums on the fly, if you want to know how your drum pattern sounds with a different drum kit.

[@richardharmon9596]

Love all your videos . Trying to find one that shows me how to record a wave sound or two and also find a drum kit and build a sequence recording. For the MPC Live 2

[@bctheproducer707]

Thank you for the dope content. I've had the MPC One since September and now just starting to really get familiar with it. Your videos have been really helpful. Salute

[@BlackTalonBeats]

Professor McCree thank you sir. Learning how to get it right on the mpc beats from these vids. ✊🏾

[@raymondschmidt8944]

You're the man, this was a good video to add! Picking up the know-how of this machine one step at a time, thanks for the tip! Loving the enthusiasm about this thing! I'm in love with it too! Goodbye digitakt!

[@jrommereim]

This is just what I needed to know to get started using my own sounds. Many thanks!

[@troywoodruff3682]

My Brother this exactly what I was talking about Love you much peace !!!

[@christiangering8866]

This was helpful and a quick an easy example. Thanks!

[@craigdaubbeats-rapinstrume9185]

Got tired of waiting for the ONE to be delivered so I ordered the X to just to have an MPC sooner. Lol keeping both tho. I figure the ONE will be good for travel. I also ordered the Roland JDXI synth because I wanna get into sound design. And, I ordered the AT4050 mic. Super excited about that as all the mics I've ever used weren't even proper studio mics. Finally I got a half decent Yamaha mixer with compression, FX, and EQ. I'm super excited about that vocoder on the JDXI synth though. That thing can make some wicked sounds.

[@thelantern9075]

What would be cool is if you did a video auditioning the included sounds, like different drum kits, samples, etc. to give folks an idea what the machine ships like. Nice video btw.

[@producer21207]

Thanks.Just tuned in.Your video's are soooo helpful and very detailed.Akai needs to hire you.

[@joemcgovern2274]

Very helpful thank you so much! Happy holidays from NC!

[@udesbeats]

Im bout to buy one, and i am starting to learn already, because of your videos. Thank you mane. 🌊🌊🌊

[@ado.9364]

Very useful tutorial bro, thank you

[@johnsonkpaul4761]

Thanks for the video. How do I assign the kit to the Banks, is there any reference for that?

[@Schemez-16vhiphopbeatz]

Something iv not done yet is save custom kits I'm gonna start doing this

[@winman42]

Very informative, really appreciate all your help. New to the mpc family with the mpc one, and your videos are amazing!

[@BigChiefPrinceVision]

Nice . When I get the one this will be great for me to learn from. Thanks Ave

[@stefanaarts4212]

how to add a preview to a drum program as with the extencion paks while browsing you will hear a loop with the drum program sempels

[@raymondschmidt8944]

WOULD LOVE A VIDEO FOR WORK AROUNDS OF PLAYING/MIXING SONGS/A SETLIST TOGETHER!

Great illustration Ave!

Bo Hicks thanks

[@baaboo05]

Ave Mcree Did you get the F9 Instrument Expansion with your MPC One? I didn’t

[@Jamslerr]

Do you know how to turn off double tap for the screen? I hate having to double click everything

[@travisbeale1785]

When you sampling a sound, how do you suppose to hear it

[@lesking9972]

I don't have one yet but thanks for the vid. Makes my decision just that much easier.

[@Schemez-16vhiphopbeatz]

Do they need to be saved to internal or can tge be saved to the sd card or USB drive?

[@bosslife_bangin]

This was big helpful ave 💯

[@jowhar4794]

This was just what I needed. Just a quick question. Is it possible to change the save location for the program so it’s not on the internal drive? Or will it always default to that location no matter what?

[@TheScreamingFrog916]

i was wondering the same thing.

[@ToneyLoco]

What up !!!This... helped out .. say I wanted to create a tag could I save a single sound , instead of a whole program?

[@chavodel6486]

I need help. Just bought the mpc one. I'm a beginner. Problem I'm having is it's not showing my S.D. card Please help and thank you

[@blackadondemory]

I think I got it now. Thanks!!! 💪🏿

[@DeeSaint905]

Saved me so much time. 👊👊

[@mwachner]

Thank you for all your vids, truly helpful! Don't know if you still monitor comments here. I just recently bought MPC KEY 61 and I'm having an issue that I've literally spent hours on, including watching so many of your vids. I do this process exactly, but for example I am trying to assign a ride cymbal to my kit. When I audition it, it sounds exactly like I want it to, but as soon as I assign it to a pad (any pad) it completely changes. I've gone in a removed any possible effects on that pad, everything I can think of and I can't figure this out. Happens the same way if I pull up the sample in Sample Edit. Sounds great there, as soon as I assign it to a pad it changes (from sounding like a ride cymbal to almost a much lower octave cowbell or something - Wierd!). Any suggestions? I can't help but think this is user error - but I can't find my mistake. :-(

[@trevormalcolm4328]

Any chance of doing a “Clip Program” tutorial? 🙏🏽👍🏽🇬🇧

[@AveMcree]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/aautYZyIjbCnm8U been there and done it

[@jaybeetdown]

Yo Ave! Dope channel, learning a lot! My question is how do you get the expansions that you bought from akai imported into the Mpc One? I cant find the files in my c:drive to copy!

[@flowmaka]

Great tutorial!😊

[@drumsjh151]

That was great! Could you have saved it to the SD card instead of the internally?

[@AveMcree]

Yes and it would be better too

[@drumsjh151]

@@AveMcree awesome!! Just waiting on mine to come in!! Thank you!! Like you videos and they are very helpful!!

[@brokeboi9996]

you are a life saver g much love

[@emeraldmorrell]

Thank you very much. Very helpful ❤

[@Halfsour1]

You've got a great channel, Ave. Totally new to this game and I just got my one. I'm excited to get rolling into that learning curve. Thanks for all the great info you share.

[@blackadondemory]

What if I purchase a drum kit online, download it to my phone. Hook a SD card reader to my phone. Remove card from reader and install in MPC One. Will that work?

[@AveMcree]

blackadondemory you’d basically follow the same steps

[@blackadondemory]

@@AveMcree so it would work?

[@Fairlight2cx]

And this only saves the drum program, not the entire project with everything you sequenced? If so, thanks!!!

[@Mixbrokers]

Peace, question I want to start making my own kits in the MPC one about how many kits can I actually store on the MPC internal hard drive before it starts running out of space?

[@mrcanisters]

128gb sd

[@tolookatyou]

Awesome video. Thank you!

[@natanmandala]

Hey Ave, these videos are so important brother. Your really helping me understand the MPC One workflow. I appreciate it alot...SBN RESONATE

so do i have to format the ssd card or does the mpc one format it automatically. also could you show us how to add beats to this particular sample....using the mpc one in stand alone mode. appreciate it sincery. kzbin.info/www/bejne/kKbFi2h4ip6hqMk

Oh snap let the Mpc one video start. And Smile a little bro you look sad af.

[@AveMcree]

MrDifferentTV sad on the outside... happy on the inside

[@shortythepresident3913]

Thisn't right. If you have a folder with a bunch of one shot wav files in it you should automatically be able to load ALL of them in separate pads automatically. You're just picking and choosing what you want which is confusing and no help to people who want to move quicker. There are 64 pads in total. Do you think anyone in their right mind is gonna sit there and add that many sounds to pads manually just for one track? Your way doesn't smell right. The MPC 2000xl does it so I don't see any reason why this machine can't do it.

[@GaryCOLLOMAN.]

Do you have a tutorial

[@shortythepresident3913]

@Johnvierre Nickles No, I just just preview entire drum kits and load em. Then I use what I use and discard the kits I didn't use to save memory (in stand alone mode). If I'm using it in controller mode it's even easier because I can preview kits quicker because I have "drums overkill" and other vst's. Your way just seems time consuming. Producer's wanna make beats, not sit down all day and make pgm's. That was always the one flaw in the MPC. The designers should've had the mindset of being able to scroll through your sounds like a sound module. The expansion packs sorta give you that feature, but they're all trash. The expansions are a joke.

[@GaryCOLLOMAN.]

@shortythepresident3913 you seem well versed in the mpc, I have a few questions before I hit buy now on Amazon. I currently use fl studio, and while I love the daw, I've always wanted to test my "power" on the mpc..needless to say..here it goes.. 1. Does mpc have a EQ like fl does, like if I want to eq a sample, like take out the low end to add my own bassline? 2. I have hella drumkits, what would be the easiest way to preview my snares, kicks, hi hats, etc..and is it hard to assign said instruments to a pad? 3. Does the mpc have vst like fl studio Does, like fruity filter, piano vst(to add counter melodies) 4. How hard is it to find the root note of a sample using the mpc 1..if you're a novice? 5. I use serato sample now to find my samples/pitch them, and sometimes use random mode which allows the program to randomly pick out parts of a song that could be used...sometimes I use that feature, and end up making heat randomly? Does mpc have a feature like that?

[@warmrollsforthetable]

homie, grade your footage. the contrast is out of control.

[@TL-wu4id]

Unclear video quality 😢

[@allieboy181]

Bro get a new camera lol

[@AveMcree]

[@allieboy181]

Ave Mcree why hush camera always busted tho? Just wonderin lol

[@shadynasty6393]

Can you do this with out sd card.. like just straight samples make my own drum program from sampling into the mpc

[@thebrunoserge]

Hey man great content!! I keep wondering.. do you go to Planet Fitness? I feel like I’ve seen you around lol
