MPC 3.0 A Look At What's New & Beat Making Basics - NervousCook$

[@nervouscooks]

There are few times in this video I fudge my words. I was quite tired. Towards the beginning I say plug-in when I meant program and I also say timing control when I mean timing correct. It’s only little details and I think you’ll get what I mean but I should have been more thorough when I previewed the video. Sorry for any confusion. My bad 🙂

[@jonathansamuels5630]

No worries, man. You give great tutorials.

[@artblack01]

This was the best overview I've seen, also, don't forget the qlinks for those precision control over sample editing instead of using the touch screen.

[@nervouscooks]

@@artblack01 yes indeed. It’s my preferred method.

[@totaled_camry]

Just picked up a used One+ yesterday and figured I would start out with 3.0. This is easily the best rundown I've seen man, very helpful. No BS, but also not assuming every viewer is a seasoned 2.0 user.

[@literaltrash2275]

Same situation

[@LORDS.And.Hammers]

As someone who got a Key 37 about 2 weeks ago, 3.0 is way more user friendly than the legacy workflow/UI. I think the learning curve is way less for new users like me, now that it’s far more visual. Awesome video mate. Big up. 🤘🏽🤘🏽

[@nervouscooks]

@@LORDS.And.Hammers thank you! 👍

[@lindasson]

I for one, am very VERY excited about 3.0, and I feel like I have a brand new piece of gear lol. Love how you broke everything down, from long pressing to change the title of the track, to removing the stock sound setup through the Preferences screen. Very well done my friend! Peace to the Union!!🙏🏾✊🏾💚

[@nervouscooks]

@@lindasson Thank you! Salute 👍

[@videosarchive8058]

Thank you for the overview. I’m with you, I like working with sequences and track mutes, but arranger seems cool if they build out. Subscribed for more MPC content. Cheers

[@yungesco2267]

appreciate these videos, very easy to follow along and understand 🙏

[@nervouscooks]

@@yungesco2267 you’re welcome 👍

[@H_i_T_Z]

Thanks!

[@accidentaltrigger]

Terrific introduction to the new software. Good to see some useful, honest and straight up conversation. Looking forward to any further content you upload, thanks, will keep watching

[@nervouscooks]

@@accidentaltrigger thank you, I appreciate that! 👍

[@IsshmanGarcia]

I think people are using the arranger wrong. While you can use to build a full song, you CAN still build each sequence individually in the arranger. It's basically the same as the old way, but more visual/easier. You need to go to the top and pull down hidden menu and tap on "Sequence" in order to switch to another sequence.

[@nervouscooks]

@@IsshmanGarcia interesting, I’ll look into that. Thanks for the heads up!

[@Craftmaster3]

Right, the arranger is just a linear view of a single sequence. It's not for actually arranging a song.

[@stemshade3108]

great pacing, looking forward to more

[@onemanwent4059]

Yo. Been using MPCs since the 2500, so used to the old workflo. Just updated my Live to 3.4 and was initially lost. Thanks to your clear explanation and great video walkthrough, I now have a better idea whats going on. Big up You! Liked & Subscribed

[@nervouscooks]

@@onemanwent4059 thank you! Appreciate that. 👍

[@thebl8nlyblatantnetwork]

We finally got it!!! Bro !!🔥🔥🔥I like it

[@nervouscooks]

Yeah me too, not as different as I thought it would be so it feels new but familiar! 🙂

[@engin3ar]

Great video, I've been trying to figure a lot of this out myself but you explain everything well and I learned a lot about 3.0.

[@nervouscooks]

@@engin3ar glad I could help! 🙂

[@tretenz9332]

Fantastic teacher

[@nervouscooks]

@@tretenz9332 thank you👍

[@illeagle8041]

You can create midi tracks and aim them at any track or pad you would like

[@Bricks_shakur]

A video on automation will be highly appreciated mate🫡

[@nervouscooks]

@@Bricks_shakur I’ll look into that! 🙂

[@slowneutron6163]

It's a DAWBOX and it isn't difficult at all to get used to. I've used if for a couple of days now. It's almost as second nature as 2.0. And in the end, it makes more sense than 2.0.

[@Cire-Beats]

My Key 37 will be here in a couple of days. I'm installing version 3 right away. I been using midi controllers and DAWS. Never had an MPC so I won't notice a difference.

[@nervouscooks]

@@Cire-Beats nice purchase! 👍

[@luisalexandrelobot9432]

tanks brouuuuu !!!!

[@dariuseviltwin]

Im excited but a little apprehensive. I do half my stuff in controller mode so I'll think I'll wait until they update the software too. Thanks for the overview!

[@nervouscooks]

@@dariuseviltwin yeah I’m curious about the software. There is certainly no need to rush and upgrade. 👍

[@Bilpokat]

We need a Talk about this sampler page Previews are so loud 😢

[@jjbing3]

I’m looking around at all the videos. I’ve updated but haven’t had time to use it. 🙏🏾

[@Crazy-Society]

Thank you so much!

[@nervouscooks]

You’re welcome 🙂

Salute

[@FazersOnStun]

Am I the only one who doesn’t understand why people keep saying having tracks and programs “separate” was confusing to “new” users??? I only bought my MPC 2 years ago and the main screen and its three sections were the easiest part to understand lol 😂

[@nervouscooks]

@@FazersOnStun you’re probably in the minority but once I got my head around it, I never looked back. Unfortunately these days I don’t think people want to take time to learn, they just want results fast and Akai are trying to cater for that. If 3.0 didn’t exist I’d be perfectly happy with the old workflow.

[@MyNameJeff..]

Mpc 2.0 is wayy more intuitive, I agree.

[@deebaker4671]

Truthfully speaking the traditional workflow on the MPC works for MANY, 3.0 is cool , but I wish Akai stop trying to slowly turn the MPC into a Force !

[@nervouscooks]

@@deebaker4671 yeah I agree. I don’t think they needed to do a 3.0 but clearly they are trying to attract different customers.

[@deebaker4671]

@@nervouscooks Yep, the DAW user's!

[@oracularmusic]

I’m missing some little things, like bounce to sample in the sequence edit screen for instance

[@user-qe2xi1tb8v]

This battle is over…..I don’t know what maschine could come with at this point

[@DelainoBarris]

Nice video. I updated to 3.0 and love it. Btw your thumbnail say MP3 instead of MPC 😅

[@nervouscooks]

@@DelainoBarris doh! Thanks for that I’ll get it changed 😂

[@ThinkerThunker]

WHAT!!!? They took out Clip programs? Why the hell did they do that? Looping samples of varying lengths continuously was made easy by Clip programs. Hopefully they'll reinstate them. Otherwise, this is a deal breaker for me.

[@user-qe2xi1tb8v]

Is there a way to make new sequences ?

[@siliconfuzz]

Can you change time signature in 3.0 easily, from sequence? This has always been a pain point for me. Basically, I have to change project default and create a new project to change the time signature in version 2. On legacy MPC's you can change the time signature easily for each sequence.

[@STEASE_]

Will I have useless buttons on my X? Like the track mute button?

[@nervouscooks]

@@STEASE_ I can’t speak for the X but according to Marlow Digs mutes are coming back so I’m assuming it will be fine! 👍

[@ve4ny]

Hi bro. I also have a roland and a red one. How long have you had the mpc?

[@SolidKampSounds]

Are you still able to explode your tracks & export your stems out separately?

[@nervouscooks]

@@SolidKampSounds I haven’t tested it yet but I know explode tracks is in the options I’ve seen. 👍

[@GaryCOLLOMAN.]

How did you make the drum beat play while you were laying your chop down.. Since you were on track 2(chops)

[@ndujamz]

Im an ableton user and I have been contemplating on switching to MPC....please advise.

[@nervouscooks]

@@ndujamz tricky question. The MPC is great if you want to be completely away from the computer but I have a Push 2 and honestly it does a lot that the MPC can do. You can export as an Ableton project from the MPC so handy for finishing tacks. I love my MPC but I don’t think it offers much over using Ableton. It’s always nice to have choice though.

[@Bilpokat]

Be sure to blur your serial numbers 😢

[@nervouscooks]

@@Bilpokat good tip! 👍

[@MyNameJeff..]

Mpc 3.0 is way more tedious and confusing than 2.0. Sure it looks better, and I’ll probably get used to it, but it’s slowing my workflow for sure. Arranger mode is not what I thought it was. It’s nothing like a daw.

[@jjbing3]

I have a feeling that downgrade button will be gone once the v3 final version is released. 😂

[@nervouscooks]

Yeah I think you’re right 👍

[@Loveforboxing200]

My main page does not look like that. It has all 16 peds set up to a trap kit. It’s always there I can never start fresh would you know the problem by any chance will really appreciate it

[@nervouscooks]

@@Loveforboxing200 not far into the video at the beginning I show you how. You have to go into preferences and near the bottom project load and save change from factory to empty project.
