Hey Ave. Can you check out Cakewalk By Bandlab? It is also best free software available since it used to be a $500 DAW and the sick Pro-channel it has.
@CMane4 жыл бұрын
Thanks for doing a video for this. My boy just called me from NYC two days ago telling me about it. It looks like MPC Essentials rebooted, but the kicker is...it's free to EVERYONE now and not only Akai customers who have bought a piece of Akai hardware. (Essentials came free w/my Akai midi keyboard.) WINNING! Anyone who doesn't download this software package, is really trippin'. lol

I bought the software years ago when 2.0 was released, just because I'd always wanted an MPC and wanted to see what all the hype was about. Today, I rarely use the MPC software. I don't really regret buying it, but I wouldn't have if I could have gotten this for free. 😆🤷🏻♂️

*It's a VST plugin too! That blew me away. You could not spend money for a better drum VSTI.* We're in an area of free apps with DAW's where the ones charging us really have to work for our money. I've been doing this for over 20 years and had MPCB previously, but only just on the same workstation at once and saw the innovation. *Unbelievable!*

I can make beats all day in my head buh when it comes to creating it frfr I’m stuck. So if you can please make a video on that, It would really help so much!!!

Wow I am so used to trackers that I searched everywhere in the interface for the tracks selection/settings and it took you the first 10 seconds in this tutorial (after download and install bien sur) to show me it was right in my face I feel really dumb lol ! I am trying to make an hybrid switch from the 1000 to MPC beats to one of my best buddy so he will be able to load his 1000 patterns and programs in Beats to do some mastering, compressing and wav export, etc. in a good, easy and powerful way (he still using audacity and integrated soundcard which is a shame because his beats are good as ffff) or do it the other way so he can do chops and programs fast and easy to save em on his 1000 too ! ...but the thing is, he is a total computer/modern technology noob and I am pretty sure he will totally be able to understands your tutorials because you are easy to follow, you keep it simple and always straight to the point ! Big thanks for your videos dude !
