Hi everyone,
Had an question since I started using my MPC with DAWs and hope someone will be able to help me.
My workflow is basically to make beats in standalone mode, than export tracks in audio, in order to mix them in a DAW. If that is something you've ever done yourself, you most likely have noticed that there is a consequent difference between the master from you're MPC, and the master from your DAW after exporting each of your MPC tracks in your DAW.
The MPC master seems way warmer and grimier than the DAW master which is completely flat and lifeless (my personal opinion here I guess). My guess is that the interaction between sample is glued by some kind of compression on the master level. I searched for explanations in the manual of the 1000 and the Live (I use both), but couldn't find anything. I also use the MPC 2.0 software, and I get the exact same thing on it than on my MPC 1000.
I can't explain it, I just feel that MPCs somehow compress and glue tracks together on the master, without you doing anything about it.
And my issue is that I LOVE that sound. That's the reason why I make beats on MPC, because I want this to happen on my master.
However, I also want to be able to mix my tracks in a DAW, to get my beats exactly where I want to get. And until now, I haven't found any way to export separate audio tracks without completely loosing that feeling and that sound.
The issue being that this sound is created by the interactions between tracks.
Therefore, is there any routing/exporting parameters/black magic that would allow me to export separate tracks, but with them interacting with each-other at the same time?
Hope this is clear, let me know if it's not.
Thanks
