Facts!

@KirkState knows! Peace Brotha

[@Mikepepp2]

Akai Needs to slide him some retroactive bread ✊✊

[@PeanutButterAM]

He KILLED that bassline.

[@avace917]

I saw people commenting on Facebook that he didn't address any shortcomings and therefore they must've paid him off. It's not like he has to be aware of every MPC model that came out after the 3000. He was probably blown away at how far ahead they've evolved his creation. The 3000 didn't load keygroups, didn't have plug ins or even effects for that matter. People need to see the forest from the trees

[@LitCrease]

He kinda addressed in the beginning that he had beef with the old Japan-based Akai but was kool with American Akai and enjoyed the free quality product - which was probably sent as a peace offering. It went over people's heads, though

[@avace917]

@@LitCrease I somehow missed that he said that. I watched the video from Linn's own KZbin channel as well. Even without that, people should be grateful that he even took the time to say anything about the current MPCs. People can be so entitled sometimes that it's disgusting.

[@crnkmnky]

​@@LitCrease My understanding was that they owed him back royalties since they became American (InMusic). I have no idea how that was resolved, but I feel like it had to be for this to come together.

[@officialknightowlz]

Apologies for my dumb ass uniformed comment! It has been deleted! You guys have a blessed day.

[@alexwestconsulting]

Yup, didn't look like that was paid to me at all. Though he only ALLUDED to the beef he had with Akai, something everyone would have missed if they didn't know the history. As a fan of the mpc line myself, I would think that he would be gobsmacked at what it can do now, and at that price. Must have been a reality check next to his LinnStrument. And I would think he would be proud that his offspring is so ubiquitous now, despite the beef. Linn will always be a hero to me though. I just bought an AdrenaLinn end of last year.

[@TonyThomas10000]

Great guy...I got to hang with him in the 80s and he even stopped by my studio when he was working on the MPC for Akai. I had a LinnSequencer back then. I also hung with Bob Moog at NAMM. The OGs! Those were the days!

[@realjravage2871]

Roger Linn is a legend 😎 he’s a chill laid back guy I will always show that man the up most respect 🫡

[@Drrolfski]

You skipped out on the best part and that is him naughty smiling that he has no intention of sending it back. By now he probably has already completely turned the device inside out to see what the internals look like.

[@andremiller1566]

That part. It was like he was 5. Im not giving it back 😏.

[@venomslair137]

One of the biggest Legends, alongside Tom Oberheim, Robert Moog and Dave Smith.

[@deebaker4671]

Don't forget Dave Rossum !

[@djgarybmixesit]

The father of the MPC has spoken.

[@Digiphex]

Roger Linn actually designed the Ableton Push in a way which uses some of his MPC ideas and some of his Linnstrument ideas. He also designed the Maschine in a way and also the MC-707 and all the groove boxes that came around after his design hit. What an absolute genius of all time.

[@lartisan6274]

akai - push, Maschine ? not roger, . Roger linn --Mpc 3000, next byebye roger

[@Digiphex]

@@lartisan6274 Easy to think of now there are so many of these silicon buttoned machines. But this layout was unknown until the mind of Roger Linn. And yes, Ableton did steal his Linnstrument for the latest Push which basically has the Linnstrument inside.

[@lartisan6274]

@@Digiphex but Akai build Push ? or i m wrong, and yeah Maschine copied Mpc

[@jaypkock]

I saw it straight when it came up and instantly loved it - felt genuine

[@elMaxx5]

That Linn drum machine ran the early 80's!!!

[@Jvaldes609]

Epic video. You missed the end of his video when he said he’s keeping the live 2 😂

[@sweedlowery]

Bruh I smell a new akai Roger Linn colab coming ...what I say ... 40 year anniversary edition 2026????

[@nine27]

Let’s Get It!!!

[@s5audio970]

It was 🔥🔥🔥 watching him freestyle a beat It’s always dope gettin input from the OG’z & elders in the game 💪🏾

[@urbantechbrourban9630]

We have our vindication.....time to move on from all this un-necessary Hate....want ya "classic sound"? Buy a converter and stfu🤣🤣... the MPC does what its suppose to do Make Beats....Excellent reaction vid AVE 💯🔥

[@dianevrules]

WTMFB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Something is definitely wrong with you if you waited for Roger Linn to give a favorable review on Modern MPC workstations for you to have "vindication." Also, the MPC doesnt make beats. The operator of an MPC (or any other musical equipment) is the motherf*&^^ who "makes beats."

[@nevedofficial466]

@@dianevrules This plus I don't really have any issue with the things E-A-Ski was saying... He was talking about the flagship models of the MPC. The spite in either direction is really unnecessary.

[@therealdjrichlove]

I love the flicks of the wrists. Roger Linn "King of the Beats". I can hear MF DOOM in heaven rhyming . My man Ave , keep your content. Love it!

[@MrDebranjandutta]

When the father of all drum machines, checks out their product on KZbin, the people at Akai must've been really looking for validation while biting their fingernails

[@thablackkat9905]

LMAO, right?

[@Ashfaq1999]

Great video. Roger linn is a legend. I had the Linndrum back in the day. The MPC live 2 is dope 👊

[@marcusx3605]

Pay that man, let him have a hand at the mpc live 3 and call it the mpc live 3000 and it will be the best thing ever and sale the most units ever

[@thelefthandofcreation1617]

Honestly I've always felt the "DAW-in-a-box" allegations have been way overstated. I was able to jump right into the same workflow on the Live 2 that I used a decade prior on the MPC 1000, and while I think that improvements could be made to lessen the dependence on the touchscreen and some sequence arrangement issues that need to be hammered out, it still feels like an MPC to me, just with built-in plugins and modern QOL features like wifi and USB.

[@o.g.tommye7580]

Same with me from the MPC 5000

[@Bashanvibe]

Respect to living Double OGs these new gen Zs need to show respect!!!!

[@matthewgaines10]

The current MPC doesn’t have to be better sounding than the much talked about vintage units because at the end of the day, the modern ones are the ones I own. I’m done with the converter debate.

[@TheLordcasio]

Ya man...preach. Folks need to know the history to see the future. And it sounds like Mr. History (Roger Lynn) has signed off on the future.

[@feelmytool]

I hope Akai gave him a fat check for this review for everything they put him through.

[@muco007]

Roger Linn born in 1955, how many grandpas ya'll know making beats with chelos on the mpc! Anything he do worth respect!

Great video Ave, this is so important to know. It helps keep the truth about the MPCs true! Thanks for sharing.

[@rashodlewis2918]

Akai should’ve gave Roger a MPC that has a limited edition color.

[@pdggeezer5436]

royalties re-enabled?

[@AGBAK]

The New Akai Force may incorporate the Linnstrument for the Pad layout. I can see this happening, as it appears that Roger Linn and Akai may be hooking up again 👍

[@andregodfrey559]

What happened to the BoomChick and Linndrum2 ?????

Roger Linn a hip hop legend 🐐 Dope video Ave 🤞🏽

[@adublbeatz8656]

That finger twirl putting in that bassline!! 🔥🔥🔥 🤣🤣🤣🤣....Yeah, I stayed away from the forums...This man...Put his MPC 60 x The Advancement of Technology and feels like they kept what the intent of the original design was, and mordernized it...doing it justification. This Live 2 is amazing. Is it better than the older model I have, that depends on the day and what I am trying to do...LOL...My brother LOVES his old MPC, but can't stop using his LIVE 2, and he is ol' skool for real....LOL...To each his own....if you have one, ENJOY IT!!

[@JayfkProductions876]

Always have Mad Respect for Roger, he paved the way for all who came after him, I might not be a MPC user but Damn Sure Maschine Was Birthed bcoz of MPC

[@playaplayagaming3272]

Hey ave I’m interested in uploading beats to KZbin like the [Free] instrumental type I just wanted to ask your opinion (equipment and such) on how if you know the best way or a good way to do that?

I liked it too 🎉🎉🎉❤ 0:07

[@pirateradioFPV]

I just got my first MPC (1000) yesterday, the DNA is definitely there, I could make my first beat without the manual. Since sir Linn got scummed out of his royalties, this could've been the diss track of all the times as there are artists who owe their whole careers to him 😁

Good Afternoon. I hope you're doing very well today. I have the MPC ONE Plus. Is your course MPC ONE Master Class the right course to take? I just want to nake sure that I buy the corrrect course for my MPC ONE Plus. I wrote to you in the comments of your latest IG post as well. As soon as I hear from you I will buy the course. Have a great day ☀️🍃🎼

[@beaujaymes75]

If akai was smart. They link back up with Mr Linn and do Akai Roger Linn editions.

[@onestrike]

ladies and gentlemen, these are the modern musicians who only talk about music on KZbin… ah yes, it’s better than producing for some idiots 😉

[@MwahMwahProductions]

Waiting on a new MPC XXX (Linnited Edition) 🤣🤣🤣

[@prod_by_slvg]

Always a good day when Ave uploades

[@nevedofficial466]

Yo Ave! Just wanted to add to what you were saying about new MPC accessibility, from someone who is completely blind. I would love if Akai added accessibility to the new MPCsIt really shouldn't require too much more than studying how apple implemanted accessibility/screen reader usage in iOS. Currently I use a 2500... How I do, long story short, is just interface memorization, definitely not the best workaround, but I am getting things done to a very satisfactory level for me. PEACE 🫡

I owned and Love my MPC LIVE 2, its my baby, I also have major respect from the creator "Roger Linn" But It looks like he was reading from a teleprompter, almost like a paid advertisement. But he also seem impressed with todays, Technology compared to his time.
