Make a Unique Keygroup Instrument with your Voice - Akai Force/MPC

[@vertigev]

Just realized I never posted after watching this.. It's such a cool idea and I also learned a ton of little tricks in this tutorial, thank you!

[@MALAKAMARYNYAHU]

GREAT WORK

[@Curious_Skeptic]

Wave Step seq now. LOL. :) A kind person pointed me to your videos. I want to personally thank you for sharing these very creative ideas. I purchased a Key 61 a few days ago. If I hadn't, no doubt I would have liked the Force better. I had no idea it had the OLED Qlinks. :( You have me thinking that I might end up staying the MPC hardware world for a while. Having a MPC X SE, along with the Key 61, and now your insightful ideas? Endless, NONE DAW, monster synth! Impressive stuff.

[@WotanSkyFather]

This is killer. The Force is such a powerful tool.

[@Noise-Conductor]

Nice to see you're back Joe! This is the type of video we need more of. Dope way to flip 2 sounds you made from yourself. If you want it sound more nasty turn Wrap & mess wit the % & the BPM of the sample if you got BPM-Sync on.

[@joefilbrun]

Thanks @Poetic-Noise. You know, I think I've trained my fingers to stay clear of that Warp button. Never thought to use it to kind of mangle stuff on purpose. I'll check it out!

[@Noise-Conductor]

@joefilbrun Yeah, sometimes you gotta get you're Hip-Hop on & use stuff in cool ways it wasn't made to be used.

[@CharlesLouisRosario]

Nice!

[@tranqbee6543]

Big help thanks Joe …keep it up

[@trespelos]

I'm loving your tutorials ❤

[@joefilbrun]

Thanks @trespelos!

[@vertigev]

Oh hell yea, can't wait to watch this after work!

[@joefilbrun]

Hey @vertigev, hope it was worth the wait and you got something out of it!

[@georgesbahia]

Super sound design. Merci beaucoup

[@DJCJ999]

Very nice! I haven't tried this type of thing out and you have sparked my interest :D

[@joefilbrun]

You should give it a go. It's actually pretty fun to see what you can make of it. And as you probably noticed, the samples can be kind of dodgy and still give you a nice result. ;-)

[@tonybarber3535]

Nice work

[@joefilbrun]

Thanks, @tonybarber3535! And thanks for watching.

[@MALAKAMARYNYAHU]

ON MY AKAI FORCE I HAVE AD/DA CONVERTER BUS GOING IN CHANNEL,INPUT 1,2 AND ALL MY TRACKS GOING INPUT 1,2, GOING TO AUDIO TRACK ON INPUT 1,2, AND MY RETURN TRACK ON CHANNEL 3,4, BUT WHEN I EXPORT THE SONG ITS NOT BEING CONVERTED TO ANALOG LIKE WHEN I CONVERT IT IN ABLETON LIVE.

[@ahiemstra]

I really like your video’s. They show creative non-standard ways of using the device. I have a question: If you buy the device, which plugins are really offering a lot of functionality that could not be done without the plugin? I get the feeling that a lot of the synth instruments duplicate each other?

[@koraamis5568]

Got to see if still have the Sarah's ARR1 sample somewhere.

[@joefilbrun]

Hey @koraamis5568, definitely try it out. Good fun to be had here, and sometimes you'll surprise yourself with what you can make it into. Thanks for watching!

[@jeanlouiscoquin3743]

Hi, 😊 I’ve got a question about converting sf2 (soundFont) format from a computer to the Akai Force. Do you think I should sample each notes or 1/3 ?

[@Drozas91]

Thats pretty cool, I wanna try this with "found sounds". Do you ever make drones with the force?

[@joefilbrun]

Hey @Drozas91. Yeah, found sounds would be great with this kind of technique. I do make drones with the Force sometime. Maybe I'll do a video on that. My favorite plugin to do it with is OPx-4 since there are so many ways to change the timbre with the various modulation sources. Thanks for watching!

[@Drozas91]

@@joefilbrun Look forward to it or any other of your videos! Always insightful.

[@stevewoywitka3258]

Joe watch " Friday night funkin" the game this is the how the kids use this technique or did you see this already?

[@joefilbrun]

Hey @stevewoywitka3258, nope never heard of that. I'll check it out!

[@jaymack-p3n]

like an sk-1 or vss-30 on steroids

[@joefilbrun]

Hey @jaymack7062, haha yeah I guess so. Can't say I owned either of those machines, but I bet they'd still be fun.
