has anyone on here read the ebook tutorial if so was it worth the 39.99. Does it really help u learn things about the mpc and also would it confuse u if ur running the new jj os. Also are there any better books or videos out there other than this ebook.

You tube will help you out. the e-book tutorial can help you it depends on if you like to read. don't buy it if your not going to bother reading that shit. that would be a waste of money. "practice and patience"

i watch mostly all of the you tube videos and it seems that mosts guys with the expection of sparqs and a few others most are on there to show off not really explaining what they are doing in detail im okay with the mpc but if i had to be honest with myself id say on a scale of 1-10 im at about a 3 of knowing with this thing really can do. So having said that do u think i need the book. im i'd better read the thing on the crapper or on my lunch breaks at work u know!

And that's the exact thing that is throwing people off. People rely on videos too much and self-experimentation too little.

Your right, Sparq is a shining exception.

some people do just get on there and show off. but what you fail to realize is people want to shine. I have learned alot from sparq and other members on the forums and you tube. but i also want to know how people feel about my beats. practice makes perfect and that's what i want to do perfect my work. so yea ima upload videos and im taking suggestions.[/quote]
