AKAI Pro MPC-X Beat Producing (no talking)

[@2ndpeer]

Most people in the comments didn't get the point of this video. It's not a "look at me making a dope ass beat" video. It was made to showcase the workflow and stuff from the MPC X. And he did a great job with this video.

[@kumplexxbeatz4762]

Best video on the MPC X I've seen so far!!

[@marctronixx]

agree

[@Johnnyjawbone]

Finally, a video demo'ing this beat maker. Excellent, those 8 minutes flew by!

[@samuelsatanas2244]

beautiful sample and really nice chopping

[@jonblakk73ab]

Idk why ppl are bagging on this guy beat,it doesn't sound bad to me and I produce,I would've flip the sample a little different but hey that's me,good job sir 👍🏽

[@TheNathtube]

great beat and upload showing your process enjoy the X

[@Onelychild]

Wonderful playing and job!

[@Oi_martial_a8671]

Best vidéo on mpc x Duduk my fav instrument.

[@daronediamonds361]

So excited to get this, y’all!

[@vegetok]

Someone catched my wish : a MPC X video without talking ... )))))

[@alieustiansamateh6401]

Thanks for the demo, it helped alot to see how it flows and sounds. Gotta say i love the sound and feel of the 2000xl alot more. And i love that it isn't to many possibillities on the 2000xl, just str8 forward beats and writing with great sound 🥁🎵 Wish you the best with your music and keep on keepin on bro ✌❤

[@Driftuner]

Now thats one powerful device

[@yeahno624]

great intro just got mine and this straight up work through to get me started is a god send please up some more

I'm an Roland MV-8800 user all day, everyday and forever!!! 😊😊💯💯

[@nmsoundz7175]

Haha, I started on a Roland MC-505

[@digitaldiezel5870]

best MPCX demo

[@marctronixx]

have to agree. getting to know the workflow on this machine will make you more efficient at producing on it.

[@magnolia2]

This is a meditational a$$ beat! 👌🏽😌🔥✨

[@rocsire]

dope man , thank you !

[@ScharfeSalami]

Wow, that original duduk sample is so great, whats the Name? not even for sampling, just for listening to it... oh an nice beatmaking Video :) thx

[@aShtk85]

It's from the track GATS - Christian acid, a really great track

[@ollenhopkins5480]

I think the beat is cool bro. We all have different styles and tastes when it cones to production. It's called music appreciation and every real musician has it. I am glad to finally hear someone do something other than weak ass, basic ass trap beats. Lookat Bryan Cox, & Tim Kelly standalone challenge. Nuff said. #Droppingthemic

[@MIDAZSITH]

ollen hopkins` Shits dope bro probably young trap kids hate it

[@vitoyaro5791]

duduk sound +++ cosmos

[@thegreatplague9748]

I guess some people don't have good monitors to appreciate the sound quality regardless that it's a DEMO track. I'm listening on Adams A7x's and this demo sounds like it's in Surround Sound 5.0 but it's not and almost zero distortion, just a few snares hit tails are toasty. The sample is in my forehead, the kick is in my chest and the bass hits my waist. Sold.

[@Aphareoz]

Nice Beat

[@Javarrol]

Just got mines and I’m inspired by you.

[@crazycuzthe1]

Nice work

Armenian Duduk. ARMENIAN! Not Georgian, especially not Turkish or Azeri, nor any countries as new as this Akai. Armenian Duduk, made of apricot trees. Great Job for using this sample for your beat. I loved it. Thanks again

[@christoroppolo8742]

I am super tempted because of the new 4 to 5 thousand dollar price of an Intel or Apple machine . This seems like the solution. A computer is becoming a problem and a peace of very expensive hardware that isn’t working in the work flow anymore. (Except for my iPad pros which should be at least the equivalent of the most powerful computer in any form. But it’s not a very important thing to the folks that build computers anymore. It seems like we are just not worth their time as customers. They just want to be the pals of the big shots I guess. At least that’s what it feels like when the iMac is five thousand dollars now. A Huge middle finger in all our faces. Peace Christo 🎶🎶🎶🎶👏🏻👏🏻👽👽🛸🛸🐕🐕🕺🕺👹👹✌🏻✌🏻🙏🙏👍🏻🔦

[@mrwoo40]

Thanks for that video..

[@LohPro]

Very cool dude, sounds like Bushido/Chakuza type beat. I'd like to ask if it's possible to scroll for new samples to load while the sequence is still playing. Older MPCs couldn't do this.

[@brokemanmusic2587]

wow! mad crazy

[@ristovirtanen9128]

In this demo you produced only a loop of some bars, repeating itself over and over. Can you produce a full song without using the computer? If yes, how do you build the structure of the song + using a mixer only that little screen?

[@Cfeldersproduction007]

I might to buy this.

[@3ikyy]

I'm 15 and I love this music shit I'm bout to get me a job so I can buy this shit because I want it badly

[@Bonedo-Synthesizers]

Excellent! Reminds me of how I started, too. You might even value your equipment more if you have to work and save for it.

[@3ikyy]

@@Bonedo-Synthesizers exactly that's why I want to buy it with my own money because it will force me to learn it and become good at it

[@TheOneJPtv]

On Repeat!

[@kennyhypa]

The effect that was done at the end does it record it on audio or on the midi notes ?

[@KelsterVonShredster]

very cool!

[@KoolteethDeBlog]

Schön, gute Demo!

MORE MPC!!! =)

[@vladsafronov5952]

Bro i need your advice I've been writing music on my computer all my life using Ableton and MIdi Key. It turns out that I can make a full-fledged track without using my PC, just just this drum machine + recorder for vocals and the ability to connect a synthesizer to this machine, right? Will I be able to create and record on this machine from beginning to end my track and send it to mastering?

[@Bonedo-Synthesizers]

Yes, it should be possible although I find it way easier with Ableton and its arrangement view. It's a different approach. If you like the MPC's workflow - go for it. Also keep in mind that the MPCs still aren't capable of disk streaming. So your track can't contain samples and audio tracks of more than 800 MB in total. Although they say its internal storage is 2 GB, it's way less as they don't tell you that the OS itself already takes over a Gigabyte. Plus, the system gets slower the more storage is being used. You can work with it though if you adapt your workflow to the MPC - in the past, they've created whole albums with way less internal RAM on MPC 2000s etc. But coming from Ableton myself, I found it to be too unintuitive for producing whole tracks due to all the hidden submenus and limitations. It's a great unit for drums and MIDI sequencing. But for creating whole tracks I'd use another solution. Again, that's just my personal opinion. It could be great for your workflow.

[@vladsafronov5952]

@@Bonedo-Synthesizers I completely agree with you about Ableton, every time various restrictions stop me, that’s why I began to look closely at the hardware + it’s much more interesting to write music using only live tools, although I’m not sure that the effects can not be avoided. I heard that you can also install an SSD drive inside. Thank you very much for such a detailed answer. I will definitely return to you when I buy it, I think I may still have questions.

[@Bonedo-Synthesizers]

@@vladsafronov5952 you can install an SSD but unless Akai doesn't manage to implement Disk Streaming this wouldn't be a real advantage imo.

[@ristovirtanen9128]

Hi. Can the Native Instrument's expansion pack and NI's plugin instruments be loaded in and played on the AKAI MPC ?

[@Bonedo-Synthesizers]

Unfortunately not

[@GeistigeEvolution]

Nice!

[@Jeremy-su3xy]

is there recording time limit?

[@titsticklerthompson981]

😂😂 no the record time is infinite

[@alianshampoprisioners7056]

Lovely...

[@tradewhales9170]

nice tutorial

[@kalo-skills8680]

Does it needs a battery???? Or you can do ti the forest with It??

[@Bonedo-Synthesizers]

MPC Live is the battery powered version. Maybe you want to give it a try

[@kalo-skills8680]

@@Bonedo-Synthesizers so its only the live the one you can move, right??

[@KDAbiDK]

nice

[@krolkoolmarek7074]

Sample please?

[@alianshampoprisioners7056]

...one cuestion this mpc is better tha mpc live,thanx...

[@Bonedo-Synthesizers]

Hard to say as both units have different concepts. Live is more for the use on tour or for those who don't need CV / Gate Outs and the dials. I'd see the X more in a Studio environment, MPC Live is better for live performers and travelling due to its dimensions and weight. Also, the X's screen is slightly bigger and the Displays on the dials are really useful when using it without a Computer.

Hi, just bought one of these for my son two days ago. I didn't buy the extended warranty though. In your opinion, since you have had it for a while, would you recommend getting it? Thanks. Nice video. 👍

How many shift commands are there? Peace 🤨🤨🤨Christo
