Thanks for making these videos! You really like the phrase -set up!

[@headsails]

Thanks for the vids. I too am hooking up a BSP with a DBI and this vid was invaluable.

[@BungHoleCamper]

Great video series full of useful information! Thank you so much!

[@rendermanpro]

I didn't use it yet, but software part looks awesome! Great job, Arturia.

[@MARVINSBACKYARDGARAGE]

Dude!! You're a flippn..genius!! Omfg...I've been watching your videos for a solidvweek on arturias beat c step pro(my brain hurts!) It sunk in today! Love your videos!! Full of good info for beginners, who don't have c a clue! Almost tossed it!! Lol...

[@mannuelf]

Love it, thank you.

[@rendermanpro]

I don't get complaints. I think part 1 and part 2 are amazing overview and demonstration. Make much more clear how to use it and software part. *Thanks a lot!* ....I think complait about that very few tutorials around about *basics* and how to start, how to connect with other hardware or "step 0" of workflow. But this specific two tutorials are awesome (if you already understand some basic usage)

[@FranieDeep]

Hi man is possible to have the BSP as Slave and still doing the editing in the controller the external hardwares? I would love to use my AnalogRytm as master and the BSP as Slave. Now if I push play from the AR the BSP doesn’t start to run, I need the BSP that runs when I start playing from the AR. Many thanks for sharing!!! Cheers

Anyone complaining about this video needs a new hobby. The software and hardware are IDENTICAL and this is simply a quick overview of the functions.

[@mcgrandroyal]

Why was there only one step green and the others were blue when you pressed shift in sequencer1 mode at 7:59 ?

[@RepublicAllegiance]

And there in lies the problem. I am lost. I cannot seem to find a resource that guides a Noob like myself on setting up the Beatstep Pro. #WhyAndWhenWouldiAdjustAnyOfThis

[@kevblack43]

youre not the only one;)

[@shxcxchcxshshxcxchcxsh9791]

what are you looking for exactly?

[@RepublicAllegiance]

@@shxcxchcxshshxcxchcxsh9791 most recently, how to get the BSP drum sequencer to sequence the Elektron Model Samples. Currently, it only plays/sequences 1 sound/track. Everything is set to the same Midi Channel. For a point of comparison, the same setup using a Korg Volca Sample sequences all the sounds via the single Midi Channel. Not so w/ the Model Samples.

[@n_mi5906]

@@RepublicAllegiance maybe it's like the volca drum where every "part" (instrument) has its own midi-channel. So for me channel 1 to 6 is reserved for the volca drum, channel 7 to 16 are my synth channels. And if I'm not mistaking, the BSP can only handle 3 channels at a time. 🤷‍♂️ I'm trying to find out if BSP is a solution for my setup with Deluge, Volca Drum, reface cs and cp and in future the Korg SV 2 🤔

[@RepublicAllegiance]

@@n_mi5906 I suspect you are correct. In the end I decided to NOT use the drum sequencer on the BSP for drums, but rather as a polyphonic sequencer for a synth.

[@enslavedelectrons5684]

so you have a door pose love cc

[@originalmixer182]

Does this only work with ableton or can you use other daws?

[@javierpiles5833]

Every Daw will work

[@furlong5439]

why does everyone in the comment section have zero chill. chill out guys farq.

[@no-relic]

Idk what’s going on there, I’m just happy that this is the black version of the BSP it looks so nice

[@guymorrison4800]

from what i can work out its 16 x sequence up to 64 steps - not sure . this should be like a programmable drum machine thus to 'song'. you need compositions! Otherwise what a big help!

[@priyodasmali]

Does it run with macmini M1?

[@BungHoleCamper]

Yes

[@AMPProf]

FWI- that guy above is Bluffmunkey! no Bluffmunkey is not a software

[@frankcavallo]

I still don 't understand why Arteria guys didn't made available a function to import ready made midi files to the machine this would be a serious feature for me cos I have tons of midi files already made...

[@sudabadri7051]

Great vid fuck the haters

[@ShouriSeifuku]

I call it, "fine tuning my melodic motor skills".

[@MARVINSBACKYARDGARAGE]

Could you please explain the knobs? Lol please

[@12bulkhead]

Yknow youre british when you say "meat and potatoes" instead of "bread and butter" xDDDD

[@jettsmiles1976]

Straight over my head…. Wish there was some audio to go with this than just pointing out things…

[@vroteg]

So if I connect it to daw not a crapelton it not going to work? Crapelton user at it best. Arrogant smack…

[@ayewhaddupdoe]

I bet you have drool stains on every one of your shirts.

[@fragswag6432]

Boring, would like to see more hands-on stuff

[@edwardprue]

Sorry, had to drop out at 00:00:20 - "a cut-down version of Ableton Live"? Can't say something nice, so...I'm out.

[@furlong5439]

chill out bro.

[@DJMikeron]

15 min of bla bla

[@scotttait2197]

Theres time I'm never getting back came looking for an introduction not blah blah waffle let's plug it into a pc ...yawn

[@gilberttrujillo9967]

I’m gonna be honest you should’ve just used it bc all this explaining does nothing , just use it any artist is better at visually learning not all this explaining bruh I got nothing from this
