It be cool if Akai gave him a shout-out. After all these years educating people on how to better understand & use their products. I think they're still mad that he made the JJOS section which exposed how much they were holding back features wise. :lol:

I guess I need to start making videos with me pulling a goofy face on the thumbnail.

You betta not make that YT porn face :o
It ain't worth it. But you could make more videos breaking down shit like workarounds for current limitations & more advanced tips & tricks.

That could help sell more bibles. Still doesn't make up for Akai's lack of acknowledgement for the work you put into for their product over the decades, while these baby face MFs getting free shit & post on Akai's social media pages. My favorite YT posters are people like Tubedigga, the Crates Motel & Tefy.

The question you can’t answer is do you still get early access to the software ??

Hopefully you got access to 3.8 early to test the export/import pad explode process .

I have access to 3.8 beta so am testing the export option. I don't have access to the MPC Sample beta, no idea who does beyond seemingly, a bunch of youtubers, which doesn't fill me with much hope given I recently saw one who spent most of a video confidently declaring that you cant do anything with 'chops' other than extract them to pads, he had no idea you can sequence with them from the chop screen.

What is the pad explode process? Is this a confirmed new feature of the MPC Sample?

And. That. Is. Sad. Isn’t it?

I think within my first 10mins I was trying chop mode and sequencing.

Why entrust any type of evaluation to someone like that?

Yeah... there is a whole school of thought to intentionally (or just not care) about putting incorrect information so that people are incentivized to post corrections... or ask "are you sure" questions... just for... the "algorithm"... :/

Yep, has happened, and, will happen again.
