Tapping slice points in a sample...

And there are no new updates for the 4k coming for a while.

Word, Blue Haze ? "not for a while" is most definitely better than "never"

I just think that would be the illest & easiest way to flip and edit samples, while staying in "The Zone"

16 possible auto-assigned, user-tapped start points, with no limitations on thier respective sample/tick placement. And the ability to do it all in one pass...wow...

That is the ultimate user-friendly "chop shop"

I agree with ya if you know how to program all of those features. Cause for all over a course of a year there has been a gang of feature requests and bright ideas that the users have envisioned and send to Akai especially that Feline guy and not one peep ever came from Akai. Its good idea but to tell ya the sad story it is most likely not gonna happen on the 4k cuz the past features were not impliemented, the company is in a big change, and the biggest push right now is the 2500 and OS ver 2.0 black 1k.

Maybe in a future 2007 version of a new MPC may be able to see the light since it will be on some other shit. Check out the NAMM show cuz whatever new hardware sampler if they have one come out will be the future sampler engines of the new mpcs.

Remember the most advanced sampling and editing engine currently is the Z8 now. The current Z8s and others doesn`t have multiple edit points either. But the future is anyone`s guess.

hmm... so the Z8 cant do it....

Can any hardware samplers???

It would be really dope to see Akai Pro post directly on this site once in a blue moon...

I would respect that. Alot.

Even if they were sarcastic, and shot our ideas down...

They're a boutique company, be more interactive w/ users...d@mn...

Last yr or the yr before in fact we had a guy from Akai named Sean who post on the site with alot of tips and techniques but he quit Akai and I don`t believe we had anyone ever since. Check the Tips and Tricks post and the newbie bible.

BTW, anyone know of a software that would do this paired with an MPD 24 ?

AFAIK theres no software that can do this alpha-chop either. You just came up with a great idea that no one else had or if they did, actually materialized.

I figured some program would implement this by now.

D@mn.

*Sean W comes out the woodwork FTW*

alpha you can always get a job at akaipro and be their creative leadman. now go work on your resume! references: drumtrack, iliac, ...!

Sh!t, just gimme subsistence wage @ the LA office.

I'm good.

I'd have that black 4000XL with a dozen new platform features out by yesterdday.

"If this is not possible on the mpc 4000, is it possible on Recycle? Or any other software?"

Not sure if anyone answered this yet, but the SP-303/404 and maybe the 202 can do this

u try guru

guru has alpha chop?

I think this going to happen on some front . A cat with the MV camp had a similar idea back in Nov last year.

If you guys are mulling this around I can't imagine someone like NI, Roland, or JJ wouldn't be on top of it too. In any case, it's a damn good idea. I think the attention should be on JJ getting this done if it going to happen on the MPC.

NI would be my bet to do it in software or first overall in the fashion you laid out. Sick idea mate.

We did it Decap !!!
damn near 10 years later !!!
haha.
Slowpokes, these pro audio designers.
