I know where you are coming from and I feel your pain. You basically feel Akai doesn't listen to you and you are disgruntled. I am not saying I have ever gotten to the point where you are at...but I did feel companies that produce my favorite products (samplers) were not really listening to consumers like me. Now that the MPC Ren/Studio is being released, my needs/wants have been addressed. Great for people like me that have been fiending for a product like this.

But...I have to acknowledge that are some that are not in bliss like I am...such as yourself. You are skeptical of anything related to Akai. You feel as if you've been hoodwinked, bamboozled, led astray, run amok, etc. So why don't you buy Product X, that you can be happy with? (Big Pun intended).

The world isn't ran by one person, and one person doesn't have all the answers. I know that if Akai decides to dismiss their fanbase entirely, they will fail with their new line of products.

It's like when a hardcore artist sells his soul and becomes a pop artist. All his real fans drop him and listen out for the next best thing. That is how trends happen and the only thing constant is change.

Akai is not some perfect audio hardware producer, they have flaws and if they can't accept and become willing to accept their faults, they will perish like the rest of the shitty drum machines. If you don't make it good, someone else **** in will. This was proved by JJOS

The reason we are where we are today is because we make requests and suggestions. We're the ones buying the damn product, so I don't see why they shouldn't tailor to our needs.

If they want to be stubborn and give the public a big '**** you' towards our inputs, no one is going to buy it. Half of this forum alone feels the MPC Renaissance is a step sideways more than a step forward, and I know the pros over at Gearslutz feel the same if you check out their MPC Renaissance thread.


Man, STFU.!
We all know allready that you don't like it.

Half of this forum.?
Most people.?
Pros at Gearslutz.

this may have been answered already, but...

you can export as audio or as midi, and you can export as a mixdown, or individual tracks.

we dont do the drag / drop thing, because if you were using 128 track of audio, you'd have to do it 128 times, so we do it as an export in 1 step.

Wav, Midi, MP3, AIFF all supported.

I'm really thunderstruck about this point of the design and development of the machine and soft...till now in September 2015!!

The last response for this specific issue,...was simply ridiculous, and the forced limitations in the midi out recording, the drag&drop option or different OBVIOUS workflow aspects for using the MPC soft into or integrated with DAWS is simply pathetic...

I've been holding on, just in case the versions 1.8 could solve some of these shamely estrategies and lack of any acceptable functionality for a product like this in 2015. But, it is obvious that AKAI is ridiculously narrow minded, speculative and even malicious or simply lazy and slacker in the essential and obvious needs for these aspects, on modern integration and flexibility (what they are scared of? They expected the MPC daw to be the new standard??!! WTF!!!), which they will be adondoning with the new set of MPDs, and MPCs reviewed...in maybe one more year?

It's really a nonsense the kind of POVs, arguments or excuses from AKAI...and for sure the fanboy's justification for things that are simply intolerable.
