First time checking out MPC 2.8 update, specifically the MIDI changes. It really opens up the platform to be a serious hub for your MIDI devices. In this video I find some issues as well.
Also, that Sabrent USB Hub I couldn't find on Amazon anymore. Sorry about that!

8:00 I'm so glad you including the problems, and not a seamless how to. I never have things work out, and seeing you problem solve was really valuable. Just got my One delivered, but had midi merger and splitter boxes. I'm old skool midi, but the USB looks so tidy and succinct. Recently learnt how to coil cables with a heat gun. so can tame those excessively long usb cables.

Hey Ricky! Love your vids! You’re a major inspiration bro! That’d be an interesting test to load up the CPU on the MPC One and see if things start laggin/getting out of sync. I’ve personally hit no where near the limit because I’m using other bits of hardware typically. Also, I know that certain USB chipsets on motherboards can affect latency on audio interfaces, so I wouldn’t be surprised to something similar with USB-Midi setups can occur. I definitely stress over this stuff too lol .. The number of times I’ve rearranged my studio for “efficiency” when I could’ve been making jams is embarrassing. Thanks for the comment and the inspiration from your vids! ❤️🙏❤️

So yeah, Logic has had this feature for years and I think it’s called “Record Last Take” or “Capture Last Take” .. something like that. It was buried under the commands without a shortcut back when I used Logic. That might’ve changed with recent versions.

Kool video! Drivers for sound cards is a pretty complex under taking. Their are sound card companies that still, today in 2020 that don’t have stable drivers for full computer OS. Akai would have to work a miracle to support sound cards inside MPC’s. The auto detect of plugged in MIDI devices is a pretty kool feature. I have not seen that a lot on hard ware. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏾‼️

Thanks for this. Including the "bumps in the road" that you encountered is maybe the most helpful part of the video! Everybody needs a refresher from time to time on troubleshooting midi issues. Regarding USB connectivity, the part most people don't realize (including myself, until the last year or so) is that USB devices must always connect to a "host" to manage the data flow. It's not a simple signal over a wire kind of thing (the way midi DIN cables are). A multi-device USB host is not a trivial thing to implement, which is why MOST hardware sequencers are not hosts and can't accept a MIDI hub. Akai has actually done a rare thing. This makes me even more interested in the MPC One.

Still an amazing workflow with no midi- or clock problems even when I'm running 32 different channels! Like you would saying ROCK SOLID :) I was thinking of getting the MPC ONE (I also have the 2000 and MPC60) but I realize that the S6000 is still better for serious productions. 16 Outs, Digital, Multi-Midi 32 Channels (!!) and the new MPC units are great but they are not in the same "league". I hope you know what I mean. I love your videos and your music, keep up the awesome work!!

Super interesting. It was good to see you setting all that up I just updated my MPC One and I'm enjoying USB with the Novation Peak and Moog Sirin. I haven't played with the shift+record function yet, but I wonder if the other tracks are just armed to record and that's why the midi was captured? It seems like a real pain to unarm every other track just to take advantage of this feature. I'll have to do some investigating as well. The problem I see with turning off the incoming midi from the other devices like your Boog, OP1, Digitone etc. Is that will limit your ability to record your own knob tweaking for parameter automation.... But maybe the MPC can't even record that midi data anyway. I've never actually tried. But it's a feature in Ableton that I use all the time. For example I like to record my filter sweeps directly off the filter knob on the Peak or Moog. I'm sure glad to see Akai introducing more features. I hope they keep it coming because the MPC line has such incredible potential!

@TeftyMeems 4 жыл бұрын

Hey Russell, that’s great insight on the armed tracks. Ideally it would just capture whatever input midi is selected to filter it down. Also, I didn’t think to try and capture CC data in this vid, I totally should have! And yeah, if you narrow down the input ports, you do start limiting options. We might just have to deal with extra steps in this workflow. Thanks for watching! 🙏🍻

@bolttracks 4 жыл бұрын

The MPC is much more of a hardware DAW than the Digitakt. Depending on what sparks your creativity, the Digitakt will probably allow you to come up with ideas way faster and its sequencer features will allow for a good deal of randomness that can be super inspiring. The MPC is much more capable when it comes to polishing the tracks you're working on since it features literal plugins, inserts, sidechaining ability, bouncing of stems, exporting to Ableton projects, etc. And it of course integrates seamlessly with the MPC plugin which lets you work with it in a similar way to Maschine. The workflow however, is much more akin to that of a DAW rather than that of other groove boxes which means that some might find it more cumbersome that a Digitakt / OP-Z / MC-101 etc.

Watching your videos I feel like you might be more MPC One bias, so that's why I'd like to know your opinions. Maschine MK3 does midi out too and if you add a laptop you have so much more with all the NI stuff. Or go Maschine Plus if you want DAWless, but I just really want a VS video from you! I humbly request! Thanks!

13:24 i have Arturia Drumbrute, and it has a tendency of sending MIDI notes when working in MIDI Slave mode. I used it with my Novation SL MkIII and I managed to get a MIDI ping-pong loop between them, which caused absolutely massive amount of MIDI data going back and forth. This in turn caused spectacular crashes by SL MkIII :) I did not find any sensible reason why it does this, and care not to waste ages troubleshooting it - I use Drumbrute as Slave with MIDI traditional and just one cable connected, it works well that way.

@TeftyMeems 4 жыл бұрын

@TeftyMeems 4 жыл бұрын

Yup, so if you have Ableton send clock info via the MIDI panel (where you choose devices and whether or not they send clock) it swings MASSIVELY. Pretty unusable honestly. With Overbridge 2.0, turn off the clock in the Ableton MIDI panel and then load up the Digitakt plugin inside of Live and have it clock from the plugin. Hopefully that helps! 👍

So you would not need mixer to receive sounds from those usb synths. Also that receiving port thing is something that i have to get into if then that would work.

@TeftyMeems 4 жыл бұрын

Hey Masa, so yeah, the USB ports only handle midi. I have a 16 channel Mackie analog mixer off to the right of the desk that everything gets routed into. I then capture the 2-channel mix off the Mackie board into Ableton while I’m recording the video. Depending on the Synths, you could chain the outputs to inputs (if the synth had it, like Digitone) all the way to the MPC One, and then just deal with the MPC output. In my opinion, a dedicated physical mixer is just a really nice tool to have in the studio, even if you ultimately mix “in the box” via your DAW. Thanks for watching! 🍻 (ps: you can find relatively cheap Mackie mixers nowadays used. I got my 1640i Onyx in used condition for $250 used from Guitar Center 👍)

Where is the audio out of the model D/electron going. I understand that the devices are sending midi via USB, is the audio coming directly out of the mpc or from the individual machines? The yellow audio out cable in the model d, is that going into an external desk or something? Sorry for all the questions haha considering buying one and trying to get my head around how it all works

@TeftyMeems 3 жыл бұрын

We have an analog mixer off to the side to route all the audio of each device (and route audio into the MPC for sampling). The mixer then can route signals into Ableton via direct outs for additional mixing/finalizing. Thanks for watching!

I've been thinking about why audio interfaces can't be connected, although it seems they can. I connected my Sapphire 4i4, and it shows as midi ports, but not audio. I think it's because usb midi is standard protocol, so usb midi is easy (if the protocol is supported). But the audio aspect requires drivers. A the audio soundcard will either be mac or PC compatible, but not MPC compatible rivers. So unless focusrite writes some driver for the MPC series their is noth Akai can do to make the MPC support USB audio interfaces. Well apart from make their own that is. You mention you want out's, I'm the opposite, I would love more ins, then I could both ditch my mixer going into the MPC, and make use of the MPC's FX on my synths. and feed everything through sub mix and master processors. I would so dig a 4 in 4 out MPC expander. Or a 4 in expander and a 4 out expander option. MY old EM6400 had an option for adding extra in out card.

at 22:45, story of my life with the MPC one so far. ive spent a week going back and forth with configs to try to see what is going on. its a huge problem for the midi routing and recording to be so complicated. it could be very intuitive and makes the machine a pain in the ass despite it being SO functional in other regards. still dont have a solution just been working around it.

Yes it does. Double check all the settings on both boxes, though, cause it’s easy to miss something and not have it work properly.

@TeftyMeems 4 жыл бұрын

Hey DaNi, thanks for watching! And yes, definitely got more stuff planned for the channel. For easy routing, you’ll probably want to get a small format mixer (like 8 or 12 channels). Otherwise you’ll be constantly unplugging and plugging each device when capturing it. Congrats on the MPC One! 🍻 Also, no audio devices can currently connect via USB on the MPC One. Hopefully that changes in a future update.

That was because Overbridge was active on the Elektron box. I switched it to regular USB mode and it fixed it. Maybe there's a type of USB protocol you can switch in the MOTU device?

Are you updated to 2.8+ on the MPC? If not, it won’t recognize regular usb-midi connections. Also, make sure your Arturia is setup for usb mode instead of midi mode (if the option is there).

@digitaldiezel5870 4 жыл бұрын

I wonder if the midi data gaps affecting the OP-1, was the result of another instrument, like the digitone or impact, unintentionally transmitting midi on the same channel. I don’t know just curious if you got that working.

@TeftyMeems 4 жыл бұрын

Yeah it seems like that could've been the case. I'm pretty sure I had limited the inputs to the OP1 to just the KeyStep, so the Digitone etc shouldn't be sending any midi data to the OP1. Could be a bug, or I missed something in the settings.

I have the live. I had no idea you could run everything via the USB port with the new update. Does the mpc power the key step from the USB port alone? And does everything else require it’s own power supply still if you are running them into the mpc via USB?

@TeftyMeems 4 жыл бұрын

Hi Roy, yes the KeyStep gets power from the USB port on the MPC One. I’ve been using it that way for a while now. My USB hub is powered so I’m not sure how many devices the MPC One can support that need power from the USB port. I’d probably just get a powered hub to be safe honestly.

Q. what about roland gear? example tb-3, tr drum machines, jd-xi mc707 etc? is this class complaint USB midi "only" so i guess is not going to work for ANY roland gear? by the way looking at an MPC but i have, jx-03, jp-08, system 1, td30 kit, jd-xi , roland sh-01 and a FA-06 plus atruria mini brute, MFB nanozwerg, yamaha RX5, a blofeld and korg volcas so i'm guessing actually MIDI din will be how i'd have to hook em up

@TeftyMeems 4 жыл бұрын

Hi Cresshead, I actually don’t have any Roland gear currently so I can’t comment on it. Didn’t realize that Roland gear is not class compliant. That seems super strange they’d do that. Maybe they have a dedicated USB-Midi mode? That’s basically what the Elektron gear is doing (USB-Midi or Overbridge mode). But honestly, the Midi din ports are fine to work with. Just make sure you use a splitter for long chains and not midi-thru on 8 pieces of gear. (You probably already know that 👍)

I wonder if all the MIDI being recorded is the new "retrospective record" feature -- maybe you had it enabled? It's supposed to capture all MIDI in the background in case you want to keep it. But I think it's only supposed to appear when explicitly telling it to via button.

I need to do some testing, but I’m pretty sure it’s when a device is following another devices clock that things get slightly unstable. And for some reason following Ableton’s clock from USB-Midi seems to be VERY questionable. But like I said, needs some testing.

question! Lets say you play all the instruments in to the MPC One and record them. Will it let you quantize them or will it only quantize the drums since the drums comes from it and others are inputs? Thank you

@TeftyMeems 4 жыл бұрын

So the quantize works on anything that’s recorded (midi wise) in the MPC. So you can quantize while recording, or quantize individual tracks later on. And it can be any instrument, just so long as the midi being quantized is on the MPC. Hopefully that answers your question! 🍻

It can only go to one hub, correct. Multiple hubs would cause conflicts in the USB data.
