MPC ONE Exporting Stems for DAW

[@MakingMadBeats]

If you want to loop the exported tracks perfectly in your DAW, you need to set the audio tail to 0 in the export Dialog.

[@malobeats]

Hey brother, thank you so much for this information I highly appreciate you taking the time to drop by. I’ll definitely be on the lookout for that. Blessings to you brother

[@MakingMadBeats]

@@malobeats You' re welcome! Thx for the work and effort you put in your channel. I' m having a hard time as a long term Maschine MK3 user that went standalone with a fully murdered out MPC 1000 about 9 months ago whether I should stick with the 1000 or get one of the newer MPCs. I tried the MPC One twice, didn' t like it at that time. Do you got any suggestions?

[@malobeats]

@@MakingMadBeats I know it’s different for everybody depending in their workflow but for me coming from the 2000 XL once I hopped on the MPC one it was a no-brainer everything just made sense for me and made my life so much easier and I was able to do my beats 10 times faster versus my 2000 XL, like I said it’s a personal choice but the MPC one is nearly a perfect machine at least for my workflow and what I needed to do,

[@MakingMadBeats]

@@malobeats Aight, I get your point, man! Do you mix your stuff or in the One in standalone, too or is it kust some basic sound design that you are doing, e.g. filtering, levels of the single tracks? What about arranging? Do you do all of that stuff in a regular DAW? I found a good deal on a MPC X. 18 months old from a music gear seller with a 12 month warranty for 1050€. Here in Germany a new X costs 1800€ atm but with 3 years of warranty.

[@kedonb2184]

Appreciate both the video and this comment. 🙏🏾

[@J-Hz]

In song mode, if you press record, you can insert sequences by hitting the pads

[@malobeats]

Man, thank you so so much for this insight. I didn’t know that till I read some of these comments. Thank you for taking the time brother. Blessings 🙏🏽

[@gax-produccionmusical4244]

Hey! Cool video! Maybe you already figure out but in preferences>record warp launch>Warp/fades you look for Auto-Warp long samples and select . So you skip the manual unwarping process! Cheers!

[@malobeats]

Man, you have no idea how much helpful the shortcut is. Seriously saves a ton of time. I highly appreciate you taking the time to share this input. Nothing but love and blessings to you brother.

[@maajkamaajka1]

I need help, i dont have that folder icon at top pf main window at all, instead is some midi icon. When i go directly to export in menu it doesnt let me option for explode or nothing that let me tale all stems out? How i can fix this

[@cruz7372]

me too dude this sucks

[@BLACKSounds762]

i have the same setup as you, and i had to figure it out the hard way, but you just press the menu button then click save at the bottom of the screen, then you can save your project however you want from there

[@Darthimpakk]

MALO!...MALO!...MALO! I've been trying to do this for almost 2 YEARS! Thank you bro. Great video.

[@malobeats]

Man I’m so glad this is helpful in someway thank you for taking the time in checking out the video brother.

[@Carbonvidz1111]

Great video! This helped me out a lot because I like your workflow. I'm going to use it when I'm ready to import. FYI - In Ableton, under Options_Preferences_Record .Warp.Launch, turn off "Auto-Warp Long Samples" - that way you won't have to go back and turn off warp for each.

[@realsontv1]

Im in the process of purchasing a MPC ONE, Just watching a lot of tutorials right now, im definitley gonna be hitting you up and keeping up with your videos. Thanks Bro. Keep Being a Blessing to others

[@malobeats]

He Rafael, you have no idea how much this means to me and thank you so much for taking the time and checking out some of my videos I highly appreciate you

[@skennymane]

If you hold command while dragging and dropping into Ableton it will make individual tracks for each file so you don't have to drag each of them down.!

[@shapeshiftersmediagroup]

Great video! There is no "folder" icon above my settings, am I missing something?

[@PHeMoX]

It was removed since 2.11, now under MENU -> Project . Don't ask me why Akai thought this was a good change though. And forgot, but might be necessary to hold the menu button and go to Save instead.

[@copewitdamzkpro4671]

@malobeats go to the settings in ableton and turn off auto warp. Also when you drag a stack of files into the timeline hold command on Mac so they drop vertically

[@daguruification]

I don't have that folder icon on my mpc one

[@Paddydacook]

me neither...

[@unclemick-synths]

Good video. One thing to beware of is when using multiple sequences in the song, don't re-use tracks e.g. just because seq2 doesn't have bass on it don't use that track for a different part - leave it empty. If you reuse that track the result in the stem will be the bass program playing that other part. So, be consistent in the tracks; there's plenty of them! 😀

[@malobeats]

Hey brother, thank you so much for this valuable information I was not aware of this so this is extremely helpful for me and anybody else reading. Again thank you for sharing this with us blessings to you

[@J-Hz]

@@malobeats Yeah its in the manual too. So in other words, if you're using song mode, all the sequences after the first sequence should use the same programs for each track. E.g, track 1 in seq 2 and onwards should use the same program as track 1 in sequence 1.

[@buscandolaverdad8686]

True

[@kingkatalogas]

and u can deactivate long sample warping in the ableton settings...

[@Paddydacook]

3:40 you could also press overdub and put in the sequences with your pads

[@ivyriley2916]

[@definite0415]

If you use cinnand comma/setting and turn off auto warp before dragging your stem into ableton. This should fix that issue. I just got an MPC live. I can't wait to add this to my process.

[@Jwumonkofficial]

Highlight all samples and hold CMD key to separate the tracks to cleanly drop them

[@2beablessing2012]

You can hold shift and tap a pad that has sequence in it so you don’t have to insert every time Hope that help

One more tip.If you press the control key or command key when you drag samples in ableton will load the samples vertically

[@JustGruuvin]

Keep it up with your videos, nice stuff 👍 Just some tip for ableton hold CMD while Dragging in the audio stems, let ableton create individual tracks for each file.

[@malobeats]

Hey Rick, thank you so much for this valuable tip I definitely need to try that next time I drag over my audio files. Hey by any chance do you know if there is a setting I can turn off (warp audio) Ableton ? Again, thank you so much for this information it highly means a lot. Blessings to you brother

[@JustGruuvin]

@@malobeats no problem :) You can turn it off in the preferences categorie "Warp/Fades" for "Loop / Warp short Samples" select unwarped one shots and for the longer ones just turn off the "Auto Warp Long Samples" Function.

[@guttahitz]

Hold command and drag the files from Mpc it automatically makes each track without dragging them all back to the one and turn off auto warp in settings or u can highlight all the waves at once and turn off warp for them all at once

@@malobeats Just tried this technique with a track, pretty complex with many different parts weaved throughout and several different programs. It’s honestly pretty messy. When I converted to a new sequence it had some issues. Seems like some of the samples weren’t in the same places. Some timing issues etc. I had to export each section of the track separately and assemble in Pro Tools. Have you ever come across that?

[@matthewutley5370]

Good tutorial. I personally prefer to record an 8- or 16-bar section into my DAW (I use Pro Tools when producing with the MPC Live II) via my audio interface, then sequence it and mix in PT. Recording from the MPC outs into Pro Tools I think gives it a warmer sound. I haven't looked, but have you done a video on that? If not, that may be another good/helpful tutorial.

[@malobeats]

Hey Matthew, dude it’s so funny you mention this because I was just thinking of doing the same thing the other day. I have the Apollo interface and wanted to use some tape plug-ins to record directly from my outputs through the plug-ins right into my DAW to get more of a warmer sound. I will work on smithing like this in a future video

[@matthewutley5370]

@@malobeats good stuff! Certainly no harm in exporting stems from the MPC. It ultimately depends on what sound the producer needs and wants. But I do recommend giving it a try! I used to produce solely in FL Studio, but now I prefer the MPC and Roland FA-06, and recording into PT through my interface breathed new life into my beats.

[@erfzjepacapej7648]

Yeah I think recording thru your outs into interface preamps is just faster - seperate them into stems that way by running a few recording passes. Both arent perfect ways and arent at the same level as elektron overbridge yet unfortunately.

thanks man great video !

[@P.G.901]

I don't know if you found the answer to exporting your tracks. So I how learned from a KZbinr is you just explode your tracks in the main screen, skip song mode, hit the folder icon, select export then als export . Once you put the tracks in Ableton put your tracks in the session view and how you do that is you go to the folder were your stems are located. instead of how your stems looks in the your folder they should have a Ableton Live icon you can drag and drop your icon in the first midi clip and the other tracks will spread out individually.In arrangement view click on your count in button press record and let it play until you see your midi notes you can stop and arrange them how you want.
