I need this in my life bad... This is like the PS5 for Adults...lol

[@lamarcraven2314]

I love that you know what you’re doing I only have one suggestion and that’s put the camera closer to the screen so everybody can see what you’re doing so they can learn to follow along with you. You are a good teacher a lot better than what I’ve seen on here so keep doing your thing brother just put the camera Lil closest so we can learn a long as you teach. Great job. Love you Contet keep it up.

[@AveMcree]

If you need close ups. I personally recommend my courses. It’s far to difficult to do it during a live stream.

[@plecturaproductions5816]

that beat fi sheesh...just got my mpc key watched the tutorial really good thanks!

[@davidg7136]

That beat raw🔥

[@douglaswilder2043]

😮shhhhhittt … joint fire…

[@marclemar]

Ave I agree that simply getting a midi keyboard is not the exact same thing because as you mentioned the touch strip and performance(ram and optimization) of the keys. However, a midi keyboard and iPad (if you already have one ) running Scaler is pretty damn good and at that point you really have to make sure you’re finding true value in buying the keys

[@IGD-974]

It's not the "exact" same thing but yea, same general idea. This is more like an ASR-10 type of vibe in my mind. Keyboard sampler/sequencer workstation. I use the MPC ONE along with multiple hardware synthesizers. I can use the keys like a MIDI keyboard, while at the same time having the ability to create my own sounds and samples with the synthesizers. I do wish I had MORE MIDI ins/outs however (I think the MPC X may have more) but I make do by running everything into my 8 track and sampling/resampling my own instruments.

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Kevrob04]

Yo Ave, been loving your videos. Thank you. Had a quick question...how do you capture the sound output to PC so record for videos / streaming? tyty

[@CDMESD]

This is good. I think my problem is that I often feel I have nothing to offer. Eventhough I am a teacher in my every day life.

[@rubencheca786]

Hello, this akai is incredible! How long did it take you to learn to do all this?

[@cuttatrack]

Ave, gotta ask…what pack was that 808 from? That beat was hard af 🤯

[@EyeGotSoul]

Peace fam. As you audition/play sample chops from the pads, you can see on the screen that the software highlights the chop selected from the pad. If using the keys instead to audition/play sample chops...does the software follow the midi from the keys also or only from the pads?

[@omarrodrigues6610]

Can you please explain your setup.

[@Talentman18]

Should I return the model X plus to get the Akai 61?

[@vikctorrkreedd6418]

Turntable sampling configuration (wires /connector/ pre-amp)?

[@BornJustAllah]

Fam where can get that House beat tho? 🔥🔥

[@rootherhymejedi9871]

Im on the fence with buying this. I have yet to see anyone sample, for example, say 1 or 2 seconds of a piano or bass from a record. And then assign it to the keys, rather than the pads. So you can have the full range of notes/semitones from the record sample. Not from the sound kits that are included. Do you know if this is possible on this machine?

[@ernestm8884]

That Overhead camera is a little out of focus, we can't read the screen on the MPC

[@SonicVibe]

When ya started laughing at fruity loops so did I 😂 lmao in that voice

[@AveMcree]

😂😂😂that how I felt when watching my favorite producers make beats on Fantoms, MPCs, and vinyl turntables.

[@michaels8088]

Ave..i like to see your channel because you are making more music than gossip/opinion....People need to quit worrying about OBVIOUS crap like the workflow and gear is ONLY person to person..TOO MUCH yapping sometimes about comparisons on YT...

[@THE.MICHAEL.ANGELO]

Bro, quick question. I have the MASCHINE+ and I can sample songs/ sounds from my iPhone onto the MASCHINE+. Does this Key 61 have that ability too? Thanks!

[@AveMcree]

Yes

[@abssmith7510]

I exported my beat to mp3 file. How do I share it to my email

[@emanuelwhitehead6039]

Would like to see a update video on your M1 laptop

[@AveMcree]

Yeah, I should of been did that video.

[@emanuelwhitehead6039]

@@AveMcree I can’t wait

[@MichaelDaniels241]

Try 62 Ed knows me

[@paserpase2870]

Come on make a fire beat bro, you make these videos with all the equipment in the world 🌎 but can't make fire🔥beats,

[@Akurpro]

If your talking to professors why aren't you explaining why your doing I am Soo confused.

[@josephhall5884]

[@michaels8088]
