R u sure jjos doesnt effect mpc swing or sequencer?

Its not the original code right?

So it might be diff

does it sound off to u?

do u think so many peeps using jj for years would of flagged this, if it were the case?

NO WAY!!! swing is a known variable. Period. 0% swing is 0%. 56% is 56% The amount of swing will be whatever you set it to, regardless of OS. The only thing that was changed was in OS2XL you now have the option to adjust the strength of swing, if you leave it at 100% your results will be the same as with akai OS. I highly reccomend you experiment with this, you will find it to be a welcomed change.

the only way to answer this is to do a proper test. with the AKAI OS and the JJOS.

if I'm still of work on Monday, I will and post the results.

Whilst it's true that some sequencers have a different feel - the RS7000, MC909 and MPC1000 for example - it's also true that, provided you know what you're doing, you can create pretty much any beat in any modern sequencer. The settings you use to accomplish this may differ slightly but, ultimately, any beat can be created on any modern sequencer whether it's running on your computer or in a dedicated hardware unit.

In my opinion, this is all that matters. It's all about learning how to use the tools you have and, dare I say it, actually developing good timing so that Quantize can be switched off when it's not needed.

word.

there are many different techniques to achieve this.

quantize, shift notes, manually program, no quantize (how you play it), groove templates, double tempo ( more resolution )

i used too do the groove template thing a few years ago when i was all software based and had no midi controller + the latency the sound card I had was terrible.

what I used to do was place markers on the individual hits in soundforge, and then wrote a little program that went through the wave file and converted the markers position to midi time, I would then import the midi file into fl studio and move the notes up or down to trigger the samples I wanted. (this was way before recycle came out, and was and still is way more accurate)

I don't really do that anymore, as I prefer using the MP and tapping the beat out.

Yeah, I used to use the same technique pre-Recycle too Oxide.

sometimes still do, if i'm at work and bored!
