in the instructions you mention a bug in the software, requiring the templates to be loaded via the program itself. it says thats only on YA Mastering.xpj and YA MPC Software.xpj, does that mean the YA MAstering-2bds.xpj does not have the same bug?

i've never used the software only standalone so i was hoping to transfer this whole thing over like a project and then be able to open directly in that mode. but it sound like maybe i can't do that? please advise.

i have to go borrow someones newer computer if so, cuz mine won't run the newest version.

thank you.

As i wrote you in the other thread and if anyone else had that question:

“ This bug only affects controller mode (MPC Software) if someone tries to load standalone templates to controller mode so no worries…Standalone is solid!
But I’m already giving a workaround to this…First fire away MPC Software (controller mode) and then load any projects…
I’ve already sent a bug report to AKAI…
This whole thing was made for standalone mode and gave an extra controller mode to some users who wanted this for the MPC Software…
Just load them up and fire...”

Question for you ... have been using this template but I forgot this time to load it before I started making the track. So now I’m at the end of creating the project and want to use it.

So I load up the mastering project and load in all my sequences/programs which all works fine, but I had a lot of automation recorded on the song and none of that is transferring over.

Anyone know if there’s a away?

Definitely you’re going for the hard way if there’s automation involved or else you’ll have to write your automation again..
Just follow precisely 1st way step by step it’s a 10 min work..
Also you need to mix your track again cause it’s a whole new concept when mixing in real-time through it..
I wished AKAI would give us global presets loading for this kind of situations..
If you’d asked for my opinion i’d load up YA Mastering template, my Sequences/Programs/Audio tracks and mix/automate the track again...

You can leave your pads, instruments whatever as loud as you like.

AND /ALSO/ MANDATORY...

I go into TRACK VIEW or CHANNEL MIXER and set them ALL between -12db to -15db (negative).
YA template will need that headroom on the master out in order to work it's magic.
From there things should start sounding REALLY good, after that, tweak however you want.

Just a heads up guys,
Been in daddy mode with our newborn daughter these times and i’m planning to release a new YA mastering update to follow up the new features of 2.10 firmware..
At last with the introduction of saving racks it would be so much easier to load up my template..Also AKAI finally gave us a proper Limiter so now can be the last device in the master chain plus many optimisations..
Stay tuned!

hi yorgos,

congrats to the new born. i'm looking foreward to the updated template, it really helped my production a lot, and reduced post mixing time in my main DAW to a minimum.

i'll advise everybody who isn't familiar with the template to try it out!

peace

Spend the time with the newborn, you only get that chance once.

Definitely interested to see what you're cooking up with the template update(s)! The rack will definitely make it interesting to make changes for different priorities in the mastering process.

Indeed my friend and i was lucky enough to enjoy my daughter 24/7 in her first months due to COVID lockdown.. :)
Now it’s time to start enjoying all these goodies that AKAI provides us with all these new updates!Much more exciting times are ahead of us too!

Im about to pull the trigger on this just a question. How easy is it to get this on old projects? Guessing that update will make it a lot easier.
