Were you able to open say Redrum, add drums to it and hit the pads on the MPC and get a response?


Hit pads, that way too old school. Just google map your beats. Drag it to NY and get boom bap, put it on Chicago and get house, Put on Miami and get that BASS. What else do you need? :lol:

The MPC Software doesn't support VST 3, does it?

Maybe there's a Musak setting on the map that would help you. :lol:

Maybe there's a Mixing, Composition, and Sensitive Ego setting on the map that can help you. :popcorn: But in all seriousness, if that helps someone create, it's a step in the right direction.

Reason Plugin is also AU which the MPC software supports.

Beat Map will really help you with your mUsAk beats. You should give it a spin - it most certainly would make you sound pro. :lol:

Only those who don't put in the work call it "PRO SOUND". The rest of us are just trying to express emotion and feeling with our music.
