Sup!
i wanna buy a mpc to make my beats:)
But i have an important question..
Can i use the mpc 500 as a controller in fruity loops?
I know you can with the 2500..
But i don't know for the 500?
My choices are between the 500 and the 1000,but it depends on my question above

Hope y'all response soon:)

If you dont have a midi controller yet, i would get a axiom 49. It has 8pads,sliders,nobs, and keys. Then you at least have the basics first. FL studio has FPC witch is a mpc style pluging. It has not been called fruty loops for a while.. be carefull with illegal software. Its stupid, and has no support.

good thing about cracked fruity loops is... you dont need support. It always works.

i think you need to fully understand how to connect and use midi before trying to use ANY mpc with fruity loops... this pic should answer your question.. MPCs are much harder to configure and use as DAW controllers for beginners than something like an MPD would be..

yes you can do that.... the mpc will be about as useful to use in fruity loops as your computer keyboard (qwerty keyboard)

any drum machine/keyboard/sampler with a MIDI OUT will be able to be used in fruityloops or any DAW with the proper cables.. im just thinking that your expecting it to work hand in hand with FL and thats just not the case.. no mpc will.. the pads will be the only function you will gain by using it with FL...
