Expansion Share Spot

So where is the expansion share spot at?

We have the ability to make packs and share, but I don't see anyone sharing.

DELETED

Look, sharing commercial kits is not going to happen around here.

If you have something that you've created yourself, go for it, let's see what you're capable of. Show some sound design skills - make your own sounds, create your own kit and feel free to share it here.

What else did you think I was talking about. I know the trolls are going to make it look like something else's, but I think this is a legit question due to the new MPC capabilities. I know you will be selling your own packs. Lol .

I wasn't referring to your post, I was referring to the post immediately after yours that already had a download link to a Loopmasters kit that the they guy had just re-saved in MPC expansion format.

As I said, if people want to share their own stuff, i.e. creations they own the rights to, they are more than welcome.

But true to form (based on the many failed attempts over the years to encourage legal kit sharing), the first post is infringing someone's rights.

This has absolutely nothing to do with me selling my own packs, this is about keeping this forum legal.

Ok, it looked like someone wanted the thread deleted or something. Lol.

I was ready for the flame war on why this thread should not be deleted.

Have a merry Xmas and a happy new year folks.

This potential pirating is precisely why this whole implementation by Akai was and .

Just my opinion, but to me it wasn't time well-spent. Even though most of the features they're implementing aren't high on my list, I would have rather seen them focus on advanced sampling capabilities, audio tracks, plugin usefulness, and these other features everyone are asking for. I get it, some people think it's cool, and that's fine. But if I were a vendor of samples, sounds, etc, I'd be pretty annoyed that Akai made it easier to pirate my stuff. Not that it couldn't be pirated before. But the world doesn't need another vehicle to make it happen.

What did they think was going to happen? Guaranteed a crap-ton of these "expansion packs" are just going to be some company's libraries packaged and passed off as original. If you're going about it legit, creating your own sounds, props to you. But most people, imo, just like the second poster, and that other guy that got busted from the screenshot, are just going to rehash commercial library sounds and pass them around the MPC community. Akai essentially created another vehicle that impacts sample vendor revenue.

Can we sample drum machines or analog synth drum sounds and post them
Can we sample vst of drum maschine etc and make kits from them

haha

shit i download mad "legal" expansion packs.just google them or pm me for links..

the only one i would support if i had money would be mpc tutors..i havent even heard them. but just for the fact that this forum exists and its been good to me and its helpful to a lot of othe rpeople

The way you put this could lead one to think that you mad at it... Just Sayin...

I don't suppose u make a great deal of money from kits with time spent ,overheads ,so to have people pass them around to complete strangers on the net must be very annoying . Esp when they start bragging about it on your forum .

I can see if, If I was trying sell the expansion. I was only posting as a test to see if everything works on my end.

I was not trying to troll or start a illegal ring for samples. But if you notice the expansion builder has a slot for the manufacturer name.

I say again, I purchase this expansion from loopmasters for maschine and I finally got around to porting the samples over for the mpc softwareand while I was doing so, I was checking how to make a mpc expansion. The link was to my dropbox, not a torrent or a ftp server.

You might aswell not share any expansion here, because every sample is now part of somebody work. Either it comes from a song, shared or purchased. Even loopmasters and others are selling sample from someone work. Who around to see if it's legit.
