MPC Feature Update 2.10 for MPC One, MPC Live, MPC Live 2, MPC X, and MPC 2 Desktop

[@KeysBeMe]

Gotta give credit where it's due...Akai is REALLY pushing the envelope on this series of MPC more than any in their history. Hats off and keep up the awesome work!

[@ryanpwm]

I used to not like them. Hate them actually. Bought one. Sold it. Bought it again. But akai just keeps at it. Constantly improving. It’s like being part of something rather than just buying a music computer.

I know, right? As soon as I heard about this update, my brain started darting in a hundred directions, just considering all the possibilities. In a way, it feels like a "golden ticket" type situation. We all lucked out and chose the best possible device at exactly the right time!

[@psojinx2]

After you install you need to add the synth content, for your stand alone - all you need to do, is login to your Akai account and download the Synths content (MPC 2.10 synth content) , just copy the SYNTHS directory to your SSD card and your new plugins will appear when you fire up the machine

[@uglymob591]

I did all this and it’s still not showing up

[@wahid_raheem]

Might have to put it on a sata drive

[@psojinx2]

I installed the firmware first via USB stick , got the message when 2.10 installed stating additional content is required . I then removed my SSD card and copied the Synth directory on the top level - powered on the MPC and the plug-in synths were all present

[@hotel_yugoslavia]

MPC X - it does not. I has an ssd installed, copied it to the top level - nothing. Then copied it to an SD card, inserted, restarted - nothing

[@hotel_yugoslavia]

in controller mode it does show up. frustrating to be honest

[@StudioMagnetique]

Man. Been an MPC user for 20+ years and have the MPC X and a 2500 now. So good to see AKAI carving a niche for the MPC. What an amazing update.

[@StudioMagnetique]

Worth giving major kudos to AKAI for simply supporting a product so heavily too. So many companies leaving their users high and dry these days. Makes the choice to stick with MPC so much easier.

[@dmares700]

And now we need a new update to help us sequencing/arranging recorded audio with are [midi]/drums/instrument recording In the track mute groups! Bc mine just play thru all sequences unless i mute the audio the whole time or unmute it the whole time, we need better arrangement options in standalone mode for recorded audio!

The Live 2 definitely has its advantages though, built in speaker, battery powered and you can install an extra internal hard drive. Both are great and do the exact same thing on the software side. I have the Live 2 and was contemplating upgrading to the X but now with being able to use an audio interface for more inputs and outputs I’m good, I’m looking at the Tascam Model 24 now lol.

Don't tell me mum I said this - but this is the best birthday present I've had this year. Thanks Akai! My album is going to be something else now.

[@burdenchild6221]

On another note - does anyone know if it's possible to record audio over multiple sequences, as in recording over the "song". Or am I stuck recording over individual looped sequences? I know the MPC isn't made for this so have no complaints if I can't. It's just my vocals flow over sequences. I'd prefer to record directly to my MPC now I can use my interface as it's so much quieter than laptop. Cheers.

[@moniak59000]

Idc really what it's supposed to sound like, cause I don't feel it sounds 100% like an arp, but this just made the mpc one a better synth buy than most standalone synths imo.
