video video video Akai Please!

Plain and simple Akai needs to put together a video on how to do everything on there machines a manual is not the answer to everything, i get tired of hearing that one. They need to ship with there machines a video on a step by step situation on how to do everthing from choping samples and all. You get people that's new to the game and try to figure out certain things and the manual won't give you a hands on experience period. And the sample kings video's suck balls period.[/b]

ya boy sparq up there drops some real nice videos on stuff and if you ask him real nice he will probally do one on a topic for you.

what do you want to know?

Actually i got a quick question , i usually just drop in my phrases and program my seq's than use nuendo and the track mute to do my beat and i was wondering if you could show us how to do a "song" from start to finish.

that's basically in the video called "track and sync" but do you want me to get more in detail (ie. sample, chop sample, zone it, program drums and then track into nuendo)?

i saw that but heres the problem i am a eng first and a hobbiest beat producer i would like to do more but i find the time it takes to make on mpc then track out say umm 16 tracks to nuendo through 4 out puts takes so long it kills my creative flow. I saw the video and got the basics about how to set up the seq into song mode but i was trying to find a better way to make tracks? If that makes any sence at all. BTW what version of nuendo do you use to track out in?

I need to now how to save the samples of the pads, everytime when i set of the mpc en then turn back on, i must do al that stuff aigan.

You're supposed to create a program...assign your samples to the pads...Save the program and everytime you want to use that program just load it up.
Peace

"Plain and simple" they need to include a video on how to use the ENTIRE MPC? Seems like people have been figuring how to use MPCs for almost 2 decades without an instructional video... is just sitting down with the machine for a weekend out of the question?

Seriously, we all get confused and need some ?s answered, but that's just being unreasonable. Kids getting scared of a little "manual" labor....

cosign...i learned my mpc and barely ever referenced the manual. seriously, if you bought a thousand dollar sampler, grow the balls to learn it without videos holding your hand through every step of the way...

Thx PhAtCaT_MPC1000. I need to now how 2 transfer my beat to a mp3 file on my pc? Can somebody help me?

Peace.

Naw man, videos are soo 2005, they should be sending fun little monkeys over to show you how to use yer mpc. Little flying monkeys! That shit would be mad ill!
The mpc has got to be the simplist sequencer to learn, if you can't handle going through a manual, and you're not ready to figure out such a simple machine, you might wanna find a different hobby, maybe rock collecting?
