USE THE VOICE LETS GOOOOOO

You know it, Ricky

[@thebndu]

Collab video would go crazy

[@raysubject]

@@thebnduholy shit, two of most talented dudes on synth/music YT !!! That would be absolutely epic

[@stevespacek8893]

I second Ricky’s sentiment. Definitely use the voice tons more Jon.. Loving the channel bruv!! Keep up the good worx!!! Bless 💥🔈🎶🔈🎶🔈🎶🔈

[@schnoodlevideo]

I was wrong too. Modern PCs are good. Done editing these episodes with scissors and scotch tape... thanks for watching everyone!

[@XanderEwald]

Your videos inspired me to get rid of 80% of my gear and make beats with a straightforward, focused setup again.

[@jonmakesbeats]

I love this

[@TampaRedd]

What all did you have and what did you step down to? Do you feel like there's more music and less fiddle faddle?

[@XanderEwald]

@@TampaReddI had more than 60 synths and drum machines at one point. I ended up spending all my time maintaining the setup instead of making music. I put everything except Push 3 and a handful of synths in storage and started selling things off. Now I am free to make music again., and I made 16 new beats in 2 weeks. Less is indeed more.

[@0N3DR3AD]

Quick Q​@@XanderEwald: How do you, or maybe don't, structure your beats?. Intro, Chorus, Verse, etc. Chorus, Verse, Build Up, etc?. 💁 I struggle phrasing anything past 16 bars. 😅

[@briangbv1]

Yep!!! That trill was EPIC!!! You make it look so easy....I have lost my way the past 5 years. Over complicate things so much that I have lost my creativity. I need to get that part of me back...using my studio and my instruments to make creating music fun again rather than it feeling like work. Spending hours trying to learn something instead of actually just making music!!! This was the perfect reminder I needed....so thank you for that and keep on inspiring all us music creators!!! 🔥

[@jonmakesbeats]

Have fun. That's the mantra that has carried me through the years and still does to this day. thanks for watching

[@pronoun_dilemma]

"You make it look so easy" - The miracle of editing.

[@jonmakesbeats]

@@pronoun_dilemma Just last week I streamed live while I created two tracks. If you want to see what I do without editing, you should check that out. That being said, the editing on this channel is essential, amazing and it's been great working with Schnoodle. He's undoubtedly made the process much more digestible for an audience.

[@skiptracerbob]

That little bass trill when you first brought it in was SO good. Loved it.The whole thing has a really hazy, soft soporific vibe to it. Big fan.

Bro, even though I’m a huge fan of your Octatrack workflow, I gotta say I’m LOVING that you picked up the MPC🔥 Amazing video 🤘🏻

OT isn't going anywhere but it's nice to have variety on the channel, for sure. Thanks for watching brother and hope your recovery is going well.

[@andywalkswithme9550]

I think you just became the best MPC KZbinr. You deserve to have a MPC X SE.

@@andywalkswithme9550 I love Jon but- Marlow Digs MPC Head is the best on YT. Bro is goated

[@StatetrooperBillyBill]

@@TheRealVRA nope, his drums sound mediocre, hence he is a youtube creator and not a professional producer who made classics

the use of the stylus is genius man, great video!

[@jonmakesbeats]

Not the first to do it! Dibiase was the one to tip me off to that

[@chrislaue2391]

This might be an addition for myself - fat fingers are fat. Love stand alone, my only issue since the 3 beta is the screen space is getting cramped and I'm just not agile enough.

[@punchandpiebeats]

Mate the moment you put that bass in....ooooooweeeeee! Would love to see you do a little verse over these beats sometimes as well, i've had TED talk and Afraid of Us playing on the regular these last few weeks.

[@_boof]

Killing it. Told ya. Akai has been listening to its customers the last several years. I haven’t even been using my MPC recently. Once 3 drops, I’ll come back to it. Sometimes just a daw and plugins brings you back to basics.

[@jonmakesbeats]

3.0 is really a gamechanger for workflow

[@kaitsu9608]

Is the arrange view out now with 3?

[@PRODUCEDBYAD]

@@kaitsu9608yes but only in beta. Gotta grab files from akai to update

[@kenc4907]

Whether you're on the octatrak or the MPC you're dropping mad knowledge on us in every video, I learn something new every time. Thanks for how much you giving to the beat making community.

[@jonmakesbeats]

I appreciate you recognizing that. Thanks so much for watching

[@m1mk2901]

Thanks for the follow up video, the MPC ONE is propably the best MPC ever made for a normal bedroom producer that does not need 8 outs for a not existing mixing table :D

[@jonmakesbeats]

It’s definitely a good one

[@SteveSpiffler]

not gonna lie, when the ice sound effect hits every time you say cool is very..... cool

[@jonmakesbeats]

Desired effect!

The "Save" icon is actually one of my favorites on the Home Screen, it's definitely a Go To feature that keeps me calm as I cook lol!! You killing those keys bro, very VERY Dope!!🙏🏾✊🏾💚

[@prospectnyc]

that bassline brought it together so hard. ooooft.

[@jonmakesbeats]

That’s when I knew

[@abelnocera3500]

That's why I never add my thoughts on a beat until I've added the bass cuz theres times where I think the beat is ass until I add the bass and everything just works and I end up creating some of my favourite beats

[@tr1co0]

This is the best beat I’ve heard on KZbin in a very long time. Seriously beautiful work.

[@jonmakesbeats]

Just a quick Story. I was at a friends house smoking weed 15 years ago or something. when we all were lying paralyzed on the couch he put on a record ( cassette on vinyl) and i was like who the hell is that guy. fell in love instantly and i've been listening to you ever since. Now i am 36 and happy you're still doing your thing. Never thought i would ever see you having a youtube channel like this lol. crazy times. You are a Gem to the scene. Hope you feel like rapping again one day :). Greetings and much love from Germany

[@MrJohnHughesHimself]

Great content as always. You recording it on tape then speeding up or slowing down has been a staple and one of my favorite parts, please bring it back

[@jonmakesbeats]

slowed down part is at the end! But I see what you're saying. We're always playing around with formatting to make the best experience for the audience.

[@siimocreates]

[@carsondmusic]

I feel like the journey with the mpc is a very unique one. Its a very special instrument mos def

[@jonmakesbeats]

3.0 helped a lot. My criticisms of 2.x still stand…too horizontal. 3.0 make the workflow more vertical

[@YFGP1]

you can actually layer the other kick directly over the kick chop from the break and trigger them both at once. just learned that and it's super dope. any sound basically...layer over layer

[@aikighost]

Yep it was 4 layers in mpc 2.0, and in mpc 3.0 and up its 8 layers per pad. Crazy shizz.

[@jonmakesbeats]

Yeah but in this case not ever kick slice on the break was the same. So I’d have to do the layering for each instance. Easier this time to make it separate

[@YFGP1]

🔥🔥🔥🔥 Yea Indiana! Go crazy. (MPC ONE is the best of them all) I get flack about it. It feels the most like the OG's and has the right amount of buttons. Ergonomics of it is nice. As fast of you think of it, you can do it. Glad you used the voice. You can make whole songs on it - In 3.0 You gotta take your audio and send it to a drum track and trigger it from a pad. Then you have endless space with disk streaming. Good video bro!

Thanks for the shoutout as an Indiana native myself 😃 I have a question for you, I seem to keep finding myself stuck in four bar loops with only adding an additional layer or two after every 8 to 16 bars, how do I get out of that and how do I make a song feel more like a song to me?

Eyyyy! I kinda hated my mpc because arranging was a nightmare. Now having an arranger is really a game changer. It’s such a powerful stand alone unit and it has the best pads on the market. I miss my Mpc one with all the buttons. The live 2 is sick, but the one was just more fun with all the button per function. I see some people making little battery kits for the mpc one which I think I would be a game changer.
