MPC One - Save Project To SD Card (From Internal Drive)

[@adrianromhild3091]

Every time I google my questions, which I have about the mpc one, I find your videos =) These are so valuable and clearly explained! Thank you a lot for your awesome content! I really appreciate your style of explaining! It is always very clear and very simple to follow you.

[@MatthewStratton]

Right on. Thanks for that. Glad the videos are helpful 🙂

[@eddielovejoy5331]

You are the best at explaining how to use the NPC one so thankful you did these videos. I just picked up a used NPC one and I’m so glad I have across your videos.

[@herbdevezin8234]

Matt Stratt you’re the truth…just purchased the MPC Live 2 and I’m a beginner and also this is my 1st MPC so your videos are really helping out!!! Thanks 🙏🏾

[@pocketsquareformat]

Dude, your information is golden! I'm a newbie and you are helping me get familiar with the MPC workflow in many ways. Much appreciated.

[@MatthewStratton]

Nice! Glad the videos are helping out!

[@buckbumble]

Matthew, your videos have kept me enjoying and understanding my MPC since I got it. I’m new to MPC’s and have recently bought the One and I found it a bit of a learning curve, but your videos make everything really transparent. Thank you.

[@MatthewStratton]

Glad to help!

[@BoomBapProductions]

thanks a lot for the info. the machine is complicated, but then so easy! But if you don't know where things are, it's daunting!

[@LDBEATS]

The machine is complicated big time I purchased for two weeks and took it back...😢😢

[@josephbanta9995]

I appreciate you! Seriously would be banging my head against the wall without you. Can’t imagine some of the frustration you probably had to go through to learn all this stuff on your own. Lol

[@DJSILKWOLF]

Thanks this immensely helps in my decision to buy one of these. Appreciate you going through this in a detailed way.

[@Gegatso]

Your videos are a lifesaver! This stuff may be in the manual, but seeing it done is really the way to go. Thank you for a broke guy who is new to my MPC One and learning most of how to use it through you! Definitely spreading the word, and I can't thank you enough!

[@MatthewStratton]

Glad you are finding the videos helpful! There can be a bit of a learning curve for the MPC but it is worth learning.

[@HowYouMove]

I just ordered a brand new factory Sealed MPC One Gold from Guitar Center for $629 with free shipping & I can’t wait to use it with Ableton Live so I can transfer the Korg M1 V2 VST sounds in the MPC & also use it with my fully loaded Roland JV-1080 Midi Sound Module

[@MatthewStratton]

Thanks for that. Glad you are finding value in them.

My MPC One arrived today. Your content has been super helpful so far. Coming from a Yamaha QY700 many years ago, and having tried Reason, FL Studio, Abelton over the years, having hardware and software that works the same way seamlessly will be huge for me. Thanks

Haven't used the Yamaha QY700 but it look awesome. Get ready to have some fun with the MPC One.

Boy oh boy was this ever needed! Thanks! The last comment was two years ago so i don't know if you're still answering questions. I sure hope you are. My MPCX expansions in standalone mode are NOT in my MPC 2.0. Is there also a way to transfer my expansions to the software? Do they automatically transfer with the project information? I know I'm going to spend hundreds of dollars buy expansions but I don't want to spend another nickel unless I know I can use what I already have. Please help. Thanks!

Excellent tutorial 👍👍👍👍👍 Right to the point. Just purchased the MPC ONE after watching a few of your videos, thank you. Question what would be the maxinum SD card memory card that the MPC ONE accept 256gb or 512gb and of course usb thumbdrive capacity.

[@cray56]

I was going to buy a San Disk Extreme 400GB but dont want to buy if the MPC One has a limit. Is there a limit Matthew?

[@Thomas_Swift]

I just purchased a 512gig and works great

[@MatthewStratton]

Here is a quote directly from Akai Pro website, "USB storage devices have no virtual limit on the capacity of the drive while SD cards up to 2TB in size are supported." Link: www.akaipro.com/kb/akai-pro-mpc-one-frequently-asked-questions/#EXT

[@bluecliffsynthesis6685]

Really appreciate how practical these tutorials are. Just to be clear: these is no way to access the MPC One's memory directly through USB connection to the computer? In order to transfer files from my computer to the MPC, I have to load them directly onto the SD card, and then plug that SD card into the MPC One? Or is it possible to load onto the SD card from my computer via the MPC One?

[@MatthewStratton]

Thanks! Yes, you understand correctly. You can also use a usb drive.

[@stephanmuller9867]

Hey Matthew, thank you for your nice and helpfully content! Is there a way, to transfer Projects, f.E. from internal SSD to SD Card, Like "Cut out and Paste"? And another question is, how can I delete projects 😀 after i saved it on another drive? Best regards✌

[@lorenzorojas4682]

Hey Matthew thanks for sharing your knowledge on the MPC. I recently started using my MPC to run backing tracks, a click, my midi keyboard controller, and process vocals via an audio interface. My band and I wrote an idea in a separate MPC project but we want to have those midi Plugins and drum programs incorporated to our set. Is there a way to open sequences from one project and bring it to your new current one? Ideally I want to transfer the sequence as is with all the tracks to our set with backing tracks. I think I might need to recreate the song but I feel there has to be a way to bring an entire sequence from one project to a new one. Cheers, and best of luck! Thanks for the great info

[@rootstudio247]

Hi Matthew, awesome videos for an MPC newbie like me. One question though. In all your videos, you have a folder icon on the main screen next to the project name. This is so useful for a lot of things. On my MPC one, it never shows. The first icon that shows is the MIDI monitor. Perhaps I accidentally hit something to make it go away. How can I get that folder icon back? Thanks and keep up the great work 😊

[@mortifiedlobster]

u the man

[@MatthewStratton]

Appreciate you.

[@generealg.marauderblack808]

How about batch file transfer? From internal to internal SSD..........

Folder icon is gone after 2.11. So it mean there is no more save as? Oh I see some options at the bottom of the main menu.

Hi Matt, thank you for the video. Would you know if it's possible to access the internal storage on Controller Mode please? I wish to use the drum samples that are internally stored but it seems the access in Controller Mode is only restricted to the SD Card. Thank you.

[@o2b312]

Good Morning Matthew! Went through your online videos, not to make to much mistakes, Im asking you again for a little advice to start porper with my MPC Live 2, regard to space on the Disc, so let me know if possible how I can delete old stuff on the box, an get free space, is it possible to store the splice content also on a internal HD and how can I delete the old once. Very interested in your opinon and way you suggest ;- ) Thanks for your time and Work....cheers

Hey Matt I ordered the exact Scandisk 64 GB SD card that has the 80MS from Amazon which works fine for my 3 Expansions but when I had ordered a 128GB 80MS from EBay for $11.99 with free shipping the seller instead sended me the 128GB that has 100MS. SMH!🤦🏾‍♂️ so I had wanted to know does the speed make a difference?

Do mpc one support 3.0 flash drives?

How can you do the same with the MPC studio

[@eddmtz4028]

I bought my MPC One from a Pawn Shop and no Software, so would it be safe to use a sd card

Yes. You got it.

So is the only way to do this is to open and save each project one by one? I have over a hundred project files on my internal that I want to move to my sd card.

It is the only way that I am aware of.

[@stevenwilliamson9699]

Can you add more music to it after you saved it

Mpc One doesn't support mounting internal drive or SD card in controller mode as of version 2.8, while Live/X do.

Correct.

hey man, new subscriber here. been watching all of these tutorials. really helpful with navigating the MPC one. I have the same question I saw another person post. I know you don’t get to reply to these very frequently, but if you happen to see this maybe you or another user will know what’s going on - I bought a San Disk 64 SD card. Months ago when I installed it, it showed right up in the Browser/Places. Hadn’t turned on the sampler in a couple months. Turned it on. Made some beats, and went to save. The SD card doesn’t show up. Took it out. Loaded it again, and nothing. The MPC doesn’t show it is installed 🤷🏼‍♂️ Does it need formatted? I’m confused as to what happed when it worked fine before.

Is it possible to clear the internal drive after copying all the files to the external card? Like your Vid. - thks.

[@brendodorset3720]

hi, I have a question: can the MPC one auto load files from the SD card when you turn it on? like the MPC 1000? e.g: when I save a project on MPC 1000, I have the option to pick auto load and save it to the card. when I turn it on, the project loads up automatically without pressing any button. very cool feature.

New to mpc world, was installing expansion pack and pulled out usb from mpc one with being turned off. I'm I good? Or did I fuck some shit up

[@Whatshisface_TV]

When I do this, it only saves the project data, but the actual project doesn't get saved. Any idea on how to get around this? Thank you for the help!!

[@MatthewStratton]

Never heard of this happening. If you push save as you should be able to save your project to your SD card and put it in you computer and have it show up. Make sure you have any hidden files visible. For example, there is a gear icon in the browser now that will show or hide information about files. There is also the icon in the browser to show all files.
