AKAI MPC LIVE II Exporting Stems For DAWS[Ableton Live & FL Studio]

[@lashtal]

Akai should give you their next MPC for free, as well as some other products...how much good work you've been doing for them, and for us. You're basically a product ambassador at this point, as far as I can tell; you're so helpful, and make everything so easy! :) Thank you.

[@Hawkwave721]

Like I said before, you always seem to come through when I needed it the most. You the best, Ave.

[@AveMcree]

my pleasure

[@JEFFMAN90]

ALS export is a time saver lol. It made me realize that Ableton should be my main DAW instead of Studio One

[@Nocsucal-BeatGod]

Ableton is the only DAW I’ll use. It’s super solid

[@kchapman1145]

Appreciate the content on here and 6teen levels. Always helpful cheers Ave 👊

The days of tracking out long songs & sequences are over! 🙌🏾💎

Thanks so much, I'm new to the MPC world having been on Maschine for a while now . This is very very helpful .

Glad it was helpful!

Man this was very helpful. This made me not get LOGIC but upgrade my Ableton Software 💪🏾💪🏾

JB! Yeah, I've been sleep on Dr. Ave. You didn't tell me about this channel! Lol

Had been trying to figure pot the looping issue. 3:10 helped with Audio Tail !! Now Loop is perfect in Ableton.

[@directive-4]

Great vid as always man! I am in love with my MPC One but I really wish Akai will include Master FX option when exporting stems in a future update.

[@DevilLos]

Whoo!!!!! Brother you have a brain!!! I love it the way you break it down my boy!!! Thank you!!!

[@jimshannononsounds]

I like this workflow. Hopefully, I can get the MPC Live 2 at tax time. Fingers crossed.

[@torwynd3131]

Thanks for the vid. I am loving my Live 2 retro. Your vids have helped me a lot with the work flow basics.

[@mont-doggBeats]

Song mode in the mpc and work flow is literally why it took me so long to find a software equivalent that gave me a similar experience of my old mpc . thank goodness akai is back with the standalone heat

[@AveMcree]

I agree and the only software on that level is Akai MPC software

[@mont-doggBeats]

Exactly that’s why even with me using fl studio on the regular I still chop my samples in mpc software and do most of my none trap drums . Can’t wait to grap the mpc one tho

[@Beatsbooksandbits]

Appreciate the breakdown! This was exactly what I was looking for…shoutout to Ableton being Ableton!

[@knen808]

Dope vid! Got my MPC live 2 coming in a few days!

Yes. Great video. Now we need the opposite. We need to load your vst to the MPC

[@rayoatis]

Thanks for this bro. Very helpful

[@ti9ri478]

Awesome ! Thanks man. Something I didn't get. Is this tuto for the whole project of just a sequence ? My project has several sequences, does that mean I need to repeat this process for each sequence ? Also does it export inserts with the track ?

[@spectivez4624]

Hey I had the same question did you ever get an answer or response back to this question?

[@ti9ri478]

@@spectivez4624 I didn't. I figure it out, you need to do it for each sequence. So creating folders with your sequences names, prior to the export would be a good idea.

[@ampersanders0n]

Dude, thank you. Great stuff.

[@BealBeats]

Im a Ableton user myself so this is good to know when it’s time for me to buy the Live 2

[@AGBAK]

Great video Ave. I'm new to the MPC X and the MPC software. If I am using the MPC software, why would I need to bounce out to Ableton Live or any other DAW?

I just want the arranger on the MPC that’s it. This video is great thanks Ave👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿🦾

[@rhythmic1420]

Thanks so much for the tutorial! Quick question...let's say I have multiple sequences (I always do, lol) do I need to explode the drum track on EACH sequence before I export?

[@spectivez4624]

Yo I had the same question did you ever get an answer or figure it out?

[@rhythmic1420]

@@spectivez4624 yeah I did... 1. Build your sequences 2. Build your song 3. Export to empty sequence in the song dialog 4. Go back to Main, find THAT sequence, and Explode ONLY on THAT sequence 5. Explode tracks when u export ⭐Make sure your tracks and instruments are the same on EVERY! SINGLE! SEQUENCE!⭐ If u change the song, rinse and repeat. ✊🏾🤎✊🏾

[@eddiehaze3165]

Is there a way to see and edit the waveforms after you open the saved Ableton Live Set? I'm still very new to Ableton but used to Pro Tools style wave editing

[@lotdproduction]

Thanks Ave.

[@unclemick-synths]

Good video. So, if I understand correctly, to export tracks (not programs) of a multi-sequence song, I get around the fact that song mode can only export separate programs by converting the song to a sequence and then I export as you describe here but with Explode Tracks selected. Is that right?

[@willjay6943]

excellent presentation ty

[@AveMcree]

You’re welcome

[@spectivez4624]

Would this process still work the same even if I have multiple sequences already made on the mpc I was looking to put into ableton? ( I have a intro verse chorus ) already made in the MPC I was looking to put into ableton

[@alanpfeiffer26]

Hi, would you have a recommendation for the reverse process? I want to work with stems on the mpc, sound crazy, but i love the process and sounds effects etc. The issue i found is that i could not playback stems from the bar i am working, i has to play from the begining and for a 50 bar song thats impossible to work. I thought about chopping the stems each 4 bars, though is so time consuming. Am i missing some simple step to load stems on the mpc and work from there with the programs effects and sounds there?

Great Video ☝

Dope Boss!

[@MazeGilliam]

Is it possible to choose a sequence to export to ableton? I currently have 6 sequences, I put everything in song mode and saved it to sequence 7. I'm trying to export just 7 to ableton but for some reason, it only exports sequence 1.

@@AveMcreew/ a cook up video too? 👀 lol I’m new to the MPC universe and I also do not use Live but would consider switching if the integration was better than “explode tracks, export session, switch to standalone, etc”. Let’s say I already have an idea, progression in Ableton synced with Drums from the mpc in Standalone… could I still use the XYFX and if so could I take a DAW pattern into the MPC for processing and then back into Live etc etc? Thanks so much btw, your content has helped a lot !

[@BundoBundoBundo]

How do I export my tracks with effects enabled on them? For instance, say I wanna export a pad that's sidechained to a kick via Mother Ducker. What setting in the export menu would I enable? I've tried the export returns option but it doesn't seem to print the stems with the effect enabled. I can't find any help online for this either, which is strange. PLEASE HALP AVE

[@gengee21]

I don’t think it will export a sidechain ducking effect. You would have to resample that patch in your mpc and have baked into the sample. Or record that specific track strait into your daw.

you exported it to Ableton but how do you arrange it????

Hey I just had a quick question regarding MPC beats software. Whenever I save a project and try to reopen it, It will start to load it and then crash the app. So essentially, I can’t open any of the projects I’ve been working on without them crashing. I’d appreciate any advice, thanks.

[@EverettVinzant]

I see that you posted this 5 months ago. I’m going to provide you some things to consider. First, is anything else starting up and running that may be conflicting? RAM is a limited resource. Second, Have you tried opening the MIDI portions of the file you are talking about in another software? If it crashes everything…. Maybe it’s the file? Next, do you have a stand alone MPC? Maybe you could open it there? What about opening the file on a friends PC/MPC/Mac? Of course I’m going to ask the usual: Did you restart your computer and then try to open the file before doing anything else (turn it off and on again)? How much RAM do you have to work with? What else is running? What CPU do you have?
