OFFICIAL - MPC Software 1.3 Delayed

e9000k wrote:my only beef with Akai was around if the would take mpc software to where it should be

1.3 demonstrates that they listen and i dont really care how long it takes to get it right as long as the direction is there

definitely have my full support now, dont matter if it takes a month more or not. I will cop a studio in summer and a ren when version 2 Drops..

i do feel for the early adopters lol

1.3 isn't out so it hasn't demonstrated a thing yet. Akai won't have your full support until you are a paying beta tester like the rest of us.

D

I've seen 1.3, out or not out, don't be fking bitter about it.

Akai have my full support, I am using 4000 cause I got critical projects on the go and can not afford experiments or downtime.

You made the decision to buy into immature software, be a man about it.

Dont get hectic ist comes Wehen its ready. I think the Software that we use now. Do what it Should do. I make Really dope stuff with this Version. So for real the Ren is ms fav mpc. **** Maschine!

The delay is not a big deal for me, so long as this release has been debugged properly, and works as it should (EG single instances of plugins across multiple tracks).

I really want the MPC to become invisible again and fit seamlessly into my workflow like MPC's of old.

I did actually pick up the Maschine 2 last week, and it does some things really well (sound browsing is dope) but it just doesn't feel right, so I'll be sending it back. The Ren bugs and all, kinda makes sense to me so I really want it to work properly.

someone on this thread asked me what chopping capabilities were better on maschine compared to the mpc ren, i'm not sure if they deleted there comment but: in maschine when i used to auto-chop a sample after the sample was converted to the pads, i was still able to edit the chop slices where i wanted them to be. so if the slice was too long, i could still edit the slice, if it was too short i could slice the segment of the sample shorter. the slices also would release the whole way when i hit them instead of pressing down and waiting for the sample to play all the way out, i already posted this before and after a comment on a thread before.

You can do that on the Ren too: just don't crop the slices upon choppage.

Also, as for "releasing the whole way": yup, it's on the Ren too.
Sample Play: Note On / One Shot.

releasing the chops the whole way is not on the ren in autochop mode (when the sample is still in edit chop mode). also i know you can edit the sample before it's chopped, like i said, after it's chopped (exported)

Just don't select the crop option. That simple. Then youre able to edit each slice separately after you put it in a program

Posting from my Phone, so I hope this isn't formatted weird. We're still working on making sure the release is solid, so we will be delayed releasing 1.3 for a few days. Realigning ourselves for Wednesday or Thursday right now. Thanks for your continued patience. The wait will be worth it!

-D

I am a man about it, I manned up when I spent my hard earned cash on the Ren. The ball is in Nukai's court to show the same professional courtesy to the users and deliver a product that is up to professional standards and that is still TBD with the 1.3 update.

Peace.

i don't care how soon the 1.3 will be available cause i am sure it will not be long and is gonna rock.i trust akai about this.the only thing that concerns me is that now that ren will have even more possibilities of use, are my 3giga ram in my i5 pc enough???? also are they gonna add a drag and drop waves from ren song mode to daws like cubase??? thank you all in advance.

So what, note off editing is the way it's been since forever. Infact I appreciate it, when chopping a long loop or individual hits it would be a pain in the ass to have to hear the whole **** thing, every single time.

I think the ren should be willing to change if there is a better way, but I'm tired of posts that basically make it sound like the ren should encompass every method and implementation of anything ever...

You know I am just a normal guy in an industry that provides for everything you do. And I am involved in projects that range from millions to billions . I also am sot after to do these jobs all over north America. You want to know how many deadlines I really make, it is less than 50%. You know how many times I have told a client "it will be done this day" ect.. And it don't happen, this happens everyday everywhere. Now your talking about $1300 I have millions of investors money on the line. Making pissed off people happy is my fortieth. Let me ask you how many deadlines in your life have you met? Or have you not had any.

This is what separates the men from the boys. Who really can handle there bizz. And doing bizz is about demand and quality of your product. Akai has been a leader for many of years. And will continue to, they are an industry leader.

So if you cant get your panties out of a wad in your @$$. Move on quit bitching at a computer its senseless, I am doing it now. WTF

Akai I believe will drop a bomb trust in that. And I personally would rather them take their time and make it rite.

Yada yada.... what a B.S story, justifying breaking deadlines, its okay that the release is delayed, but it doesn't make it professionall...cuz it isnt, then just dont mention a release date, or let people know before release date its delayed.....
and whats with your bragging?? million investors?? involved in projects ranged of millions and billions.... Who cares?!?!?! And u make less then 50% of your deadlines??? really?? and u dont even feel a little bad about that???
mention that in your promotion material, and see how many orders u will get, and how many of those pissed off people remain clients????
makes me think about JP Morgan, lehmann brothers, enron......they didn't care either, look what it brought.....it always falls down on the regular people, for whom 1300 dollar is a lot of money!!
And still people wonder why big corporations go broke, workers getting fired, and people on top keep getting bonuses, and orders are moving to india/china....

cuz of this cocky, arrogant, braggy attitude...and seperate men from the boys??? seperates trustworthy decent professional bussinesmen/companies, from the money-fixated, dont give a F.... bout clients, corrupt failing ones.....
1300 dollar still is a lot of money to the most of us, be respectfull....
your whole way of speaking makes me sick....

nuttin but luv for akai, and i assume they learned a valuable PR lesson, still love my MPC Ren tho'
