Hello everyone,
Before dropping all my cash on the MPC live i just have a few questions.
In theory it can do everything i want it to do. However after reading multiple problems with the ram i thought i would ask before purchasing and being disappointed with it.
I play in a band and i want to use the MPC for a few different things.
For instance, for a live set up i'll have the MPC hooked up to 2 synths and a drum machine for midi outputs.
Then i want other tracks to be playing audio 'samples' but really they'll be more like backing tracks, my question is, could the MPC do this without struggling?
I could have the names wrong here because i've not had a chance to use this before but i would create my sequences and tracks and then have them in 'song mode' where it would play the entire song from start to end.
Song 1. (4:37)
Track 1 - Midi output to drum machine
Track 2 - Midi output to Synth 1
Track 3 - midi output to synth 2
Track 4 - AUDIO - Background atmosphere noise
Track 5 - AUDIO - Different Drum Audio Samples
Track 6 - AUDIO - Weird sounds.
So if the song was 4 minutes and 37 seconds long and 'Track 4' was a full audio file of 4 minutes and 37 seconds long, lets say a wav at around 40mb, same with track 5 and 6, could the MPC handle this sending out the midi and playing 3 audio tracks for the full duration of the songs?
I would also need to do this for an albums worth of songs.
I would load up different songs after each songs finished, i wouldn't have it all play in 1 long track etc. I'm just skeptical about the ram performance?
Thank you for your time.
