How did I not know about Drum Explode until watching this now

[@paulhorsley8922]

Dam! That’s a lot of blue ! Thank you .

[@BladeTheMotovlogger]

10:38 Tip #10, I don't know if anyone has already mentioned this, but I think you meant to say how to delete a project instead of a track. Also the P is for Projects not Programs. When you deleted that .xpj file, you deleted the project file only and left all of the project data files on your drive. The project file is just the file that tells the system to load everything in the project data folder it's linked to. You have to hit the gear icon all the way over to your right then uncheck the hide project data folders box. Next click the All icon next to the Gear icon and delete the project data folder. Don't worry, it's not deleting the original programs that you loaded it from. When you save a project, it creates copies of program in the project data folder.

[@iwillnevergetone5]

agree 100% Drum Explode is one of the most dope features. it allows for so much flexibility including dropping your projects into your computer's DAW with each pad as it's own track to be EQ'd. plus i just learned it also explodes audio tracks from within the MP. insane

[@Mrgoodnessproduction]

This was very useful thank you God bless

[@user-jn1yb6ct3d]

Thanks man , I’ve had this for over 2 years , been working with other gear and I’ve finally started to use this device ! Great tips !

[@DJL609]

Great Vid Marcus, I wish I had this when I first started out

[@herb39hs]

Yeah youe info is very helpful for ppl like me thanks for the tutorials 🙏😱

[@pdiggz2003]

I really wish Akai puts the drum explode on the Force too.

[@MrPETEHAMMER]

Great beginners advice👏🏾especially the last one,deleting or removing is good housekeeping👍🏾Akai MPC is a amazing instrument BUT the lack of internal memory means beginners MUST learn to “invest in additional reliable harddrives & save,back up & clean up”all projects during the entire creative process!

[@marcuselbow]

Thanks for the feedback Hammer! The MPC live does come with a decent amount of memory to get you started and if that’s not enough SD cards are inexpensive and easy to pop in and out. SSD are now cheap as well. So in my opinion memory isn’t an issue at all. 🙏🏾👊🏾🙏🏾👊🏾

[@aaronwoodus789]

Thanks, Mark

[@nero2cross]

MAN THAT JUST PUT SO MUCH MEAT ON MY HEAD....I ACTUALLY UNDERSTAND AND FEEL WAY MORE CONFIDENT IN MAKING THIS MY PRIMARY. IVE HAD MPC IN THE PAST AND NEVER REALLY DIVED INTO IT BECAUSE IT FELT FOREIGN TO ME. NOW I HAVE THE LIVE WITHOUT SPEAKER AND ITS BEEN SITTING AND I JUST BOUGHT THE 61KEY WHICH IM IN LOVE WITH BECAUSE I PLAY KEYS. I LEARNED PRODUCING ON A KORG X3 AND MOVED UP TO THE TRITON BEFORE GOING CPU DAW RELATED. THANKS BRO FOR GIVING THIS GEM OF KNOWLEDGE. DEFINITE SUBSCRIBING

[@davidscott2095]

Man thanks for the tips! I have owned my MPC2000XL since they came out about 20 years ago, it’s still working rock solid but it’s time I move to a modern piece of gear 😂 I know these do so much I was wondering how complex they would be to transition over to. Thanks for the helpful videos 👍 Definitely ordering up the Live 2 retro. Ps just Subscribed 😊

[@djdoncruse1952]

Fam I have the MPC Live 2 ! I’m trying figure out how to reload some audio I had saved as a project !

[@Okayplaya]

Since you're kinda taking requests, please hit us with more on the Tascam Model 12 and using it with the MPC. A little more in depth please.

[@Jvaldes609]

Just ordered my first MPC went with the live 2 hopefully it’s worth the money. 😅

[@marcuselbow]

If you used our link then yes sir!! Lol…congrats bruh!!

[@Jvaldes609]

@@marcuselbow 🤪 I got it from Sweetwater so I bought it and then went to KZbin to learn and ran into your channel but I’ll sub and like your stuff and see how I can support you later.

@@Jvaldes609 no worries bro bro! You need something let me know! 👊🏾✌🏾

How many of these tips can be used in the MPC software for MPC Studio 2

[@p__o__l__s__k__y]

[@designsinorbit]

EXPLODE?!?! HOLY SH#$

[@tyjohnson1550]

Did you do a full beat making one on the Akai MPK mini 3?

[@marcuselbow]

No not a full video, just a review. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpfEmHtpjqhpiKs

[@davidscott2095]

Thank you for the video. Quick question: Is navigating just as quick on the Live II as it is with the MPC One, or is it just a matter of workflow and building muscle memory using the Live II? Thank you, brother. Merry Christmas and Blessings!

[@marcuselbow]

It feels very similar to all newer MPCs as far as navigation goes. Funny thing is it feels more like an upgrade 🤔 Merry Christmas brother. 👊🏾

[@davidscott2095]

@@marcuselbow 👊

[@joshualane1716]

You can skip one tiny step - to rename your drum program (or track or sequence), hit the A-Insertion Point Symbol just above the pencil. It’ll take you straight to the name page.

[@marcuselbow]

Thanks bro bro! 🙏🏾👊🏾

[@MikeFelkerVideos]

Great video! Thank you for the excellent tips. I was saving a project and noticed a TON of kits being saved, but I am only using one. I was playing around with the expansions and loading kits to see how they sounded. I did not realize they were being loaded into my project. Now my project file takes minutes to save. I tried to delete samples and it deleted everything. How do I delete those kits that I was auditioning but not using from my project? I know it's a real noob question, but I am new to the MPC Live 2. I also have a Akai Force and the MPC Beats software, but I really don't use them as much as I would like (too much to do outside of music). Thank you in advanced for helping me with this question.

[@marcuselbow]

What’s good Mike?! Before you save hit the “purge all unused samples” and you will be good bro bro. 🙏🏾👊🏾

Do you know if XY effects can be recorded in your beat?

[@djnoriega]

Hey brotha have a problem on the mpclive2 hopefully u can help me out with? For some reason I can’t get my pads to playback my chops from my drum program when I hit the pads when the track is muted but can only hear them when it’s not muted I should be able to hear my sounds on my program when I hit the pads even when it’s muted not sure if I set something up differently in my setup? I never had this problem before can u help me out? Thank u
