[@djmsquared]

🙏 Thank you for you watching!

[@edittheworld3539]

Thank you for taking the time to break down your process like this. There's quite a few things you touched on that I was curious about. I have one of these, just waiting for a new pad sensor, but in the meantime I've been watching tutorials. Thanks again brother. Beat was dope.

[@djmsquared]

Cool, that new pad sensor is awesome. Thank you or watching!

[@jaymac6831]

Pure gems on this video. Thanks for sharing bro ..i liked the beat you cooked up as well.

[@djmsquared]

Much appreciated! Thanks for watching!

[@forsale313]

This the first time I have seen someone run thru the process this way. I'm more inclined to grab one these Boxes now. Thanks for taking the time to show the process int this manner.

[@carlosm8303]

Do you have a video on how to sync Logoc with the MPC?

[@djmsquared]

I don’t but check out this video I did with using my MPC 2000XL with Logic as a midi controller maybe that could be helpful. kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3PFe6icftd0b80si=rYEHesKyKCd7VaVS

I still rock the mpc2000xl with the external SCSI zip drive. I have a graveyard of old broken ones I must have gone through about 40 of those things since then. And around 500 or 600 disks So I have a question how often do the internal zips break ? And where do you get one?

[@djmsquared]

Hey thanks for your comment...My internal zip drive broke only once in the 20+ years that I've had it. You can get a replacement internal zip drive at mpcstuff website.

[@AP_JUJU_BANK]

@@djmsquared oh damn I will have to look into buying one. Thanks

[@djmsquared]

For sure! @@AP_JUJU_BANK

[@ONEHENDRIX]

How do you have the technics connected to the 2000xl?

[@djmsquared]

I have the Technic Turntable RCA cables going into a channel on my DJ Mixer. Then I’m coming out of the DJ Mixer main outputs and going into the RECORD IN (Left, Right) of the MPC2000XL

[@ONEHENDRIX]

@@djmsquared Figured. I thought there was a possibility that you modded the rca port to accept phono-line inputs.

[@ONEHENDRIX]

@@djmsquared Thanks.

[@djmsquared]

@@ONEHENDRIX Cool

[@johnnyrivera3940]

IM SORRY BUT THE SAMPLE IS OFF ONE SOUND NEEDS TO BE DELETED..THEY DO NOT BOUNCE OFF OF EACH OTHER LIKE THE Y SHOULD

[@djmsquared]

That is your opinion. Thanks for watching the video.

[@jeffreywilliams5871]

I thought I heard something off in the beat, but that didn't take away from the really good and enjoyable way he's teaching how to use the machine. I still found the video very helpful in navigating the MPC. but I think you're right about one of the sounds not matching up correctly.

[@jeffreywilliams5871]

I think its because the percussive drum loop loops back over itself off beat

[@djmsquared]

@@jeffreywilliams5871 thanks for watching

[@johnnyrivera3940]

@@jeffreywilliams5871 IF U MOVE THE SAMPLE BACK A FRACTION IT WILL WORK..OTHER THAN THAT IT SOUNDS GOOD
