MPC and Logic 9 tracking!

Whats good MPC heads!?

I got an annoying problem while trying to track my beats into Logic. I got that e-book on how to use MPC with Logic, and it helped me very much(recommended)!!

But now I got a tiny issue with my sound when recorded into Logic. Quality of the sound is great, but my chops lag on some places in Logic even though it's flowing perfect when played on the MPC.

Now, all my beats are made on the MPC with T.C. off. When I record in to Logic, I make sure that "Quantize Value" is off(3840) to get it to sound just like on the MPC, but it seems impossible, even with "Low Latency Mode" on. That's my long lasting issue with tracking beats on computers.

Any help would take lots of pressure of my shoulders and give me much more freedome, 'cause I'v been recording my beats as one tracks with intros and breaks live, and I'm tired of that.

bump. anyone?


i'm sorry i can't help you, but i'd also like to see this answered, as i'm about to try logic and tracking out myself!

when tracking, go into your audio settings in logic, and turn your buffer down to 256 or lower. when mixing turn it back up.

Allright, I'll try that...thanks!!

yeah man no problem.

read this if you want to know more about why your buffer settings work the way they do

Damien, thanks for the link, I think I know what buffer does now.

I have one question. I realized that my buffer size was set on 256 Samples the whole time, so I should go lower to 128 or 96 Samples?

Is that in any way gonna have a bad effect on my soundquality? Or, is it just "telling" my computer to work faster?

Thanks again man!!!
