MPC 60 II WHAT HAD HAPPENED WAS..

[@2free2snakes]

I don't think anyone else on youtube has a series about old hip hop gear. You get a video about a sampler here, a sequencer there, but no one else I've seen has tackled the entire history of the hardware progress like you have.

[@DyReckProductions]

Thanks bro ..I appreciate it!

[@jonathansoko1085]

Theres one other that covers old producers gear but he just uses a stock beat in the backround and monotonously talks for like a minute about it and every video is almost identical

[@JEFFMAN90]

[@jonathansoko1085]

@@JEFFMAN90 i wonder why? I used to give the guy constructive criticism because its a good topic for a channel but he didnt listen and just copy and pasted everything

The MPC 60 always looked like a cash register & beat machine all rolled into one. You can make beats, and give out change at the same time. 🤣

I love your videos brotha !!!! but the biggest upgrade on the mpc 60 mk2 was the chip on the main output board !! on the mpc 60 mk1 is was problem, making the machine freeze when trying to sample into it ! I did a video on that

[@DyReckProductions]

Oh ok..I think I did read somewhere where folks was complaining about freezing and how the mk II was faster..Ima check the vid out.

[@RicoN.glacius]

[@MrNote365]

Hey, you know this channel and this type of videos are really something. In an era where everything is DAW, Midi pack, loops, subscriptions and controllers, getting a throw back to the "good old days" is a must. Getting to know what machines people where using and how the general public was dealing with new gear is necessary to understand where we came from. Please don't stop (i know there's limited amount of gear that you could talk about, but make it last hahahahah)

[@DyReckProductions]

Lol. No doubt fam..Thanks!

I agree. The hard work of being creative it made you so much better. Man o man

[@Thomas_Swift]

Two Producers in the Mid Hudson Area who had this version of this MPC was DJ PAUL NICE ( Poughkeepsie NY ) and DJ DISCO SLIM ( Newburgh NY ), they made sample chops and real ill bests on this machine, I seen magic from start to finish on this machine I ended up getting one and a haircut or shaving was out of the question this machine possessed you.

I remember using the Alesis HR machines and the TS10 in the early 90s. Then my life changed in 93 when my uncle, who had distribution through Ichiban invited me and my crew up to Atlanta. The had the Ensoniq ES16 Plus and the first MPC sold to the general public. I barely made it back to FAMU for my 3rd junior semester. Memories......

[@amontri3246]

I still have the 60 and its gritty and warm sound add a texture to any sample especially drums , it's very inspiring to use this it's so limited that it forces you to put focus on your drums that's why it was very successful in any genre of music the drums and bass are foundation but this machine really solidified the track nicely something about sampling vinyl with this machine it almost kept that sonic stamp it preserved the sound and even made it better with its 16 bit but yea it's very inspiring to work on this because your using your ears instead of your eyes that's why we now have endless possibilities, power, sample time , software but it's all based on vision not hearing

[@DyReckProductions]

Your right about that.Alot of newer producers cant get with the mpc 60 because theres no auto chop. Little things like that kept some folks away from the machine..Not knowing if they learn to chop by ear it will make them a beast in manipulating samples and just understanding production period.

I love this channel, great videos on some iconic gear. Did you ever use the Roland VS1680 or VS1880? They were famously used by Kanye West and MF Doom. I got my first VS 1680 in 2002, but ditched it for a Mac/ Logic a year later. As this box sat gathering dust, I could never bring myself to sell it. I'm glad i kept it. I went DAWLess in 2011 and brought it out of retirement. I added an VS 1880 to my collection and use it with my MPC 2500, Roland SP-404a and SP-808 to make music in my studio. It's funny that considering how popular the Roland VS series was from the mid 90's and early 00's, there's not even a Wikipedia entry for them?!?! Anyway keep up the good work I love the entertaining way you cover the history of classic boxes.

[@DyReckProductions]

Thanks fam..I never used them. But I wanted one back then lol..I ended up getting a Korg d16..Dont get rid of the1680. Some of those effects are classic on it for mic recording and stuff..They got effects software cant duplicate..If you run your drums or even you beats through some of those effects your track will sound incredible..Im saying too much on here Lol.
