Construction:

sequences are broken into sections of the song, intro, verse, chorus, break, etc.

tracks are used to fill in those sequences... track 1 - kick, track 2- snare, track 3- hats, etc.



load your samples and get to know your equipment

Read these forums when you hit a wall; read up + gain knowledge = moving forward

Really tho. :nod:

ReeseG14, I'm sure you'll pick up the MPC no problem at all. You said FL and Maschine are your background. You've probably already realized the Pattern/Song mode foundation of FL is largely the same in an MPC environment. And you're probably also finding an MPC OS a bit quicker at doing some things that Maschine has it's own style of implementation.

But as everyone else noted, you clearly already know how to make fire beats so it shouldn't be too painful.
