MPC ONE GRID Edit in Standalone | mpc one tutorial

[@lindasson]

Okay.. I'm man enough to admit that I've been confused about the grid, so I stayed away from it, but this is great information! I might attempt to try it out after watching this, God bless 🙏🏾✊🏾💚

[@malobeats]

Yo brother, thank you so much for taking your time and sharing this input. This grid editor by far has to be one of my favorite features

[@ericqualley6764]

Same

[@cogicmj]

This is by far is the best tutorial on how to use this MPC ONE especially for beginners. Keep coming out with these tutorials Bro. This is like making beats 🎧 school.

[@dloak1]

Malo, thank you homie i just copped a one plus and never used a piece of hardware before and homie you helped me tremendously!

[@sinewaymusic]

That q-link tip is a good reminder that it's there. I find their choice of shortcuts in the Grid editor to be weird in that sense: why are the loop point knobs hidden on page four? It's easily the most useful knobs in this mode. I wish these could be customized so you could decide to have them on the first page, along with e.g. Nudge and maybe Transpose. That would make it so much more useful. One tip I use the most that you didn't include is the physical copy button. It's incredibly simple and useful: select a bunch of notes and hit the Copy button and it will immediately duplicate those notes and place them to the right of your selection. Very useful for quickly copying a phrase without having to go into the tedious Copy Bars menu. The knob mode conveniently changes to Nudge too so you can quickly adjust the placement of the copy.

Thanks for the excellent lesson/tutorial! I would buy those drum pack, when Ive had time to receive my new MPC One+!!!

[@marvin469]

4:50 man I saw u select 2 bars (of a 4 bar loop) and loop them in the piano in an old video and I couldn't remember which vid I watched; damnit I'm glad u showed me again. I done watched about 30 of ya vids today LMFAO 👍

[@electronicfeelings5832]

Tip number 3 is something I wasn't aware of and I'll sure use the heck out of it! Thanks 👍

[@wiggesobk]

Dope beat man! Yes i love the grid view too. The humanise function is great too! ✌

[@sampoetry]

Great video bro! Being that I’m fully standalone, I definitely have to start utilizing the grid view editor a lot more.

[@toddtrillo7445]

That was really informative, thank you sir

[@darthknowl9222]

Peace!!! I think I asked you about this. You’re the only person I follow who actually talks about working on a specific bar. Thanks for that. I have to add that to the arsenal

[@malobeats]

Absolutely, I do my best to reply to some of your guises questions, but this one really sit out to me, and these are some tools. I’ve been very useful for myself, and I hope you’re able to implement these in your workflow. I appreciate you taking the time brother.

[@darthknowl9222]

Will do!!!!! thanks a lot, yo

[@davidscott2095]

Another great video, Malo. Thank you, brother. Blessings.

[@-SC-]

Thanks A lot Malo👌 I needed this one 💎 the Grid is the way to go when recording (Usually stayed in the MAIN 🤯 and later played with it🤣 U R always upgrading my skills!! Going PRO in the grid is my mission😉 Cheers🍻

[@jf7506]

Thank you ! Very useful tips, once again 👍

[@malobeats]

🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@Mboriginal80]

Ive been using the X, but now i needed something to travel working with 1 is slightly different but you techniques are awesome keep them coming

[@realoutlaw58]

I appreciate these videos, I'm 95% sure imma end up gettin the MPC. i want to hit the ground running when it's time to buy.

[@malobeats]

Hahah I know that feeling, I’m sure you gonna fall in love with it. The possibility’s are endless with an mPC

[@yohonthewolf]

I just got a mpc one a few days ago. That thing is crazy! I'm currently trying to learn it. Its can be confusing. I appreciate your helpful videos!

[@discowolf25]

Stay at it. I come from the floppy disc era. The 2000 specifically. The mpc one in standalone is all you need. My best tip is- you gt understand sequence’s cuz that’s the mpc workflow. You can do everything in one sequence, mute every track but… say your drums. Send it too your computer or whatever you use. You can also just record it and save it to your sd card and 💥! You got yourself a banga!! Good luck fam!!!

[@PHeMoX]

@@discowolf25 I would recommend building up sequences with lots of sequences for your intro, break, refrain, solo, outro etc. and put them together using in song Mix. It's also possible to convert that song into one long sequence, if you want to for example have longer audio tracks recorded on top (think vocals, dubs, solos that span across several different sequences etc.). It can be a quite powerful all-in-one indeed. And I exclusively use it stand-alone. The PC software sucks. It's slow, it doesn't work half of the time. But stand-alone works fine.

[@TheWavys]

As always i find a little gem, the q link to control the loop area is clutch

[@moniak59000]

many thanks malo! great video! and the sound of your bass is incredible!

[@malobeats]

Brother, thank you so much for taking the time out of your day to watch the video and also share your feedback. It really means a lot. Much love and blessings to you.

[@diggadirt393]

Thanks again for these videos, really helpful 👍

[@carbonvibes]

Thanks for the breakdown Malo, the grid and understanding it is quite important. Always learning something from your vids. 👍🏼

[@ericqualley6764]

I really needed this

[@DreeZakaJedi]

Im so #standalone, that i don't care about the grid But, since everything i have now is DAW ready, i figured I'd give it some attention. Thx for starting me off.

[@soulscientific2685]

Yo Malo dope beat.. im a new mpc one user thanks for the tips.. I been living my new mpc its like you can do almost anything with this technology akai created for us 💥💥💥💥💥💥💯💯💯💯💯

[@malobeats]

Absolutely, I feel like the possibilities are endless with this MPC. I’m still learning so much with this machine. It makes it even more exciting for my journey.

[@Edge_0202]

LETS GOOOOO

[@malobeats]

🤜🏽🤛🏽

[@davidneau8830]

Thanks for these video. It was very useful tricks. Simply explained. I share a news with you. I've my own MPC. I took the one ! i tried it one hour in the shop and don't see time. I've got to make firmware update to have more fun. Take care.:^))

[@nicola9187]

Thank you!

[@malobeats]

🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@tommayo3212]

MALO: Your videos are so valuable to a newbie like me. I’d like to support you by purchasing your sample library of Vinyl drums. Will they work on the MPC ONE+?

[@aparrotdies]

Could you please show how to use the pan automation in gridview?

[@zaum2002]

Word

[@zaboomafoo1984]

I can get the MPC ONE at a good price, do you think that for playing with a band the MPC ONE or the MPC live 1 is better?

[@DwayneHillsPhoto]

Could you tell us how to add compression to incoming samples. Meaning how to compress audio while recording samples. If we wanted to cut the low end out to focus on the horns per say?

[@davidscott2095]

Dwayne, I am not sure if this is what you are referring to or not, but Marlo Diggs just released a video today that I think might speak to what you are referring to: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pJLOf6WcfJaWmM0 I hope it helps. Blessings.

[@ariestrucker7832]

Do you have a full course bro?

[@Matthematic7]

Is it possible to place notes/drum hits in grid mode using the pads without playing them in live?

[@malobeats]

Yes that’s also an option

[@Matthematic7]

@@malobeats Oh, awesome. That’s the way I’ve always preferred to sequence. A while back I wanted to upgrade from the MPC 5000 to the MPC Live, and at the time you either had to play notes in live or use the touchscreen to put them on the grid.

[@designsinorbit]

I can't see all my tracks on one grid...is that possible to do? Nudging things around on one track messes up the other, ya know?

[@Crazy-Society]

Two questions: Is there a way to start with my favorite quantize setting when i begin a new project? It´s so weird and it´s the first MPC I have encountered this (have the whole range of classic MPCs) that it´s always on 50% - no swing - when I switch it off and on again. Even the very old 60 starts at the same Swing settings which i have used in my last project. Second: This iPad like controlling screen is so slow and inaccurate and the wheel feels also very slow. On the 2kxl or the 1k you could press SHIFT and the numbers jumps in 10 increments (instead of only 1)so you are way faster when you want to change your velocity f.e. from 120 to 20... Thanks and all the best.

[@vvarbug]

If I wanted to add an effect on 1 single sample within the bar without affecting the same samples on others bars, is that possible?

[@88keyz]

👍🏾

[@malobeats]

🙏🏽

[@fellpower]

MPC ONE is great, i have one too - but i dont like the grid. the touch is sooo annoying. u always have to hit 100 times, till it responds. if u want to put in a note, or delete one, i have to hit that touch 100 times, to do it. and they never fixed it. thats crashing my workflow every time....

[@brendodorset3720]

I've bought an MPC one and I'm selling it because I don't like that grid. I like music notes shown in numeric format. (note number, duration and velocity), not in graphs / drawing as shown in the MPC one grid.

[@jKHAHN215PA]

I just researched grid editor and saw this.. I’m trying to mute the 1st 4 bars and when select that portion and hit mute it mutes the entire track.. I don’t want to delete it and play it over I just want to mute that section of the track in the song

[@bobbyonasis]

Just bought one . Dose it have speakers or do I have to buy them

[@malobeats]

This one does not come on speakers you will have to buy air of speakers

[@bobbyonasis]

@@malobeats thank you . 🤲🏾 I appreciate your time and quick responses.

[@PHeMoX]

I still think the grid edit needs a LOT of improvements. Why doesn't it allow to change velocity just by having a note selected and for example turn up one of the dials straight away? It pretty much should be the default parameter to change for any note selected IMHO. It's also unnecessary to move a note on the grid when you accidentally swipe instead of select it. They also recently changed the shortcut, so now the velocity is no longer a default parameter you change, but you have to swipe up the note bar to increase volume, which is a disaster with a full drum pattern nearby. I know you can change the tab by scrolling the wheel, but it's kinda dumb. You'll accidentally change the volume of a lot of notes you do not intend to change if you use the swipe up / drag up method. Erasing notes also won't work if the note is very short in duration, which is just a huge oversight on a device that is intended to work from the touchscreen. Last but not least, the way the sequencer won't put notes in view when you play them, is kinda annoying too. We want a scrolling cursor, but it would also make sense to follow the note played. Lots of unnecessary zooming a dragging the view around just to see what's up. And to do that, you have to change the grid edit tool also, or you might change other stuff. Not the best design. We do not need playing a note with a pad to also select all similar notes either. No idea why that was implemented, because it's only ever useful when you want to change the volume of all hi-hats for example, but selections won't lock, so it might not even work for that all that great either. Anyway.. all in all, it is a usable grid edit and I use it a lot. But it needs soooo much more improvements still. The quantize features also need the option to be non-destructive / destructive to allow for more complex rhythm corrections. But nudging notes works fine if you know what you're trying to accomplish there, not to mention using the device without quantize. I too never ever use the pencil tool. Why use the pencil tool when you can play the pads? I guess maaaaybe a note you already know should be perfect on the beat can be drawn in with the pencil tool, but the touch screen isn't exactly super accurate for that. I rather have the bar playing and play the pad instead.

[@refruja8483]

With all respect but I had MPC One and I think a Daw is much more flexible and faster producing. So I sold the MPC.

[@jordi1992-r3m]

anything thats in the grib is really not that fast and not that easy lmao
