Can the Renn or Studio quickly render midi vst instrument parts to audio and then quickly chop and assign parts to a pad as audio samples? I'm mainly using vst instruments these days but would love a quick way to turn them into samples to chop and flip... if the new MPCs could do that in a way that was fast and seamlessly integrated with the MPC workflow that would be awesome.
UCAudio good to see another voice speaking about sampling VST's.
I have spoken about this in the past on this forum with little luck...no one really wants to talk about it....they do me, like the did you, and talk about all this other stuff. Maybe my posts have the cooties.
Anyway...
I may be wrong but all you asked about was *SAMPLING THE VST INSTRUMENTS* to put it breifley.
I think this is a great idea. I plan on using the ren in a similar fashion. I think we should be able to do this. But like I said above people, at times, have not resposnded to my statments like this directly so maybe they know something we don't. Some one did say that the Ren does not record Audio but I refuse to believe that that includes Sampling.
jpeg said "check all the ren vids but really this kind of question will only be acurately answered after the **** is released"
Nothing against
jpeg but if that is the case... THAT'S SOME BULL SH!!!T !!! Because there are two Akai guys that rome this forum so I don't see how there can be anything unknown about this product. They know whether we will be able to sample the VST sounds. All we are talking about here is setting up a midi sequence on a channel, playing it back while sampling, and then assign the sample to a pad. That's my vision of what you where asking about sorry if it is wrong.
If an Akai Product with the name MPC on it (the hell with what it stands for) CAN NOT SAMPLE SOUNDS, especially sounds available to its own software, then we need to close this entire forum RIGHT NOW!

...
But, I will use my optimisim goggles for now

...and say YES it can..."quickly render midi vst instrument parts to audio and then quickly chop and assign parts to a pad as audio samples"
lol
