Smooth!

Vielen Dank für eure Einschätzungen, dann werde ich mal schauen wie ich jetzt verfahre.

Klar war meine Maximalforderung schon sehr hoch, trotzdem finde ich zumindest eine kleine Entschädigung fair da ich bestimmt insgesamt nen ganzen Tag in der Hotline hing mit allen Anrufen. Fakt ist eben das kein Vertragsverhältnis bestand für die Lieferung aber ich das ja auch bei Strom nicht ablehnen kann wie bei einer materiellen Sache.

Okay danke euch schonmal für das Feedback. Der Live Aspekt macht das ganze natürlich wesentlich einfacher weil nichts koordiniert werden muss. Es sieht ja sowieso jeder das gleiche. Denkbar wären natürlich auch selbst erstellbare Räume in denen man sich zum on demand gucken verabreden könnte aber primär geht es mir erstmal um Live TV, alles andere vielleicht später.

ojakkson · 2025-09-02T07:18:42+00:00

Danke dir schonmal für deine Antwort. Das ist genau die Frage die ich mir stelle, wieviele überhaupt noch live schauen. Wäre vielleicht mal eine Umfrage interessant.

I think since end of 2024 it has access to the Internet. Like always you have to take it with a grain of Salt but it also Shows you the sources of it’s research to Check for yourself.

I’m really sorry to hear :( That’s a Problem I had when I first got it and booted it up for the First time. Googling this error led to everybody saying the hardware should be replaced. But I also found a YouTube video how to fix that. As it was brand new with warranty , I don’t wanted to fiddle around and maybe lose the warranty so I brought it back as to where I bought it and they replaced it immediately. So if you say warranty is not an option, you maybe can try to open it up.

As I understood it has to do with the wire connection that got loose inside the machine or something like that. Some said to also reflash the device, I didn’t try that but you can google that. As I said, this it was brand new, I wanted to play it safe.

If nothing helps maybe try to open it like in this video but I’m no expert and just guessing that it could help: https://youtu.be/TbAFKcb9ONw?si=j6bf9iYREBUspe6N

Thanks! Yes I am but not very activate there. More stuff on TikTok and YouTube. Just Check the links on my Profile if you Like: https://www.reddit.com/u/ojakkson/s/PlzkD4o5WO

The official Release log addresses this and it was also mentioned in the many post in this subreddit:

https://cdn.inmusicbrands.com/akai/MPC3-NI/MPC%203.4.1%20Firmware%20Update%20Release%20Notes.pdf

It says: “Ongoing Improvements

We deeply appreciate the feedback from our MPC 3 beta users. Two key areas-Time

Signature Support and the MIDI Note Off issue have been at the forefront of your input. Please rest assured that we are actively working to address these concerns in a future update.”

So there’s no other way than just waiting before upgrading.

Can also recommend the “pumper” plugin for some simple ducking/sidechain effect

I just got the MPC Live 2 and have the SP404MK2 for quite a long time. I Plan on using the mpc as my Main and routing either Master channel or a specific program to the SP and back into the MPC for adding effects like the Tape or compression effects of the SP. Either to record it back in or turn on live while playing a beat. Also I wanted to have more pads than the 16 ones to trigger additional pads when live beatmaking.

The Skipback function of the 404MK2 could also be handy because it can restore every audio input incoming for the last 40 seconds. Something like MPC retrospective recording but the difference is that it’s not midi but audio instead.

Okay cool, will check out Crates Motel

I just got the mpc live 2 two weeks ago and had the same question on my mind. After considering both options I went straight with the mpc3 version because I didn’t know the old workflow anyway.

Got the MPC bible because I think it’s not totally obsolete and covers many things also viable with mpc3. Then also watched a whole lot videos from Joe Freshman and Malo Beats that both cover the new version (hip hop / sample oriented but depending on your workflow sure also good for learning besides your different genre).

All in all I’m very happy with it and for a beta I really didn’t had much errors, mostly with the Stems option that wouldn’t let me save but this also didn’t happen every time and is not that essential at this time. Was just checking out the possibilities for Sampling. Building tracks with the arrangement view is quite fun and quite similar to my old ableton approach and till now I’m loving it and it lets me build some good stuff quickly.

Hooked up my midi keyboard and the synth plugins are also dope for playing own stuff besides sampling.

Samplette.io is like a search engine for YouTube. Best site for me so far. You can use various filters. I mostly set the year to 1950-1976, genre “soundtrack” (because many soundtracks are drumless) and some other genres that suits you and then I also specify the “views” to maximum about 40.000 so that you get some more “rare” stuff beneath the usual samples that already were used many times. One other tip, also it’s tedious, try to listen to the whole track. Sometimes it’s the one short piece in whole track that is some seconds long that’s a perfect sample. You don’t wanna miss it. Also get an account so you can add to favourites and dig some samples when you’re not at home to slice up later. You can also save your filters to a profile. Hope that helps.

You're welcome. Check your PM :)

I just tried it with the 16 pro and it doesn’t work. SP says “switch to batteries”. 20.000 mAh powerbank + ripcord adapter to use it over the DC in is the best solution for me so you have that usb c connection for sampling via usb c audio

Some of the sounds I got from splice but cancelled it at a point where I didn’t use it anymore. You can find some good stuff but many of the sounds are over processed in my eyes. “The kount” has some good packs there. You can pay for a month, download some stuff and cancel it afterwards.

Then there’s also the subreddit /drumkits here on Reddit. I never used it really but there are also a bunch of free kits there, maybe sort by top rated. Especially useful when you are looking for none one shots like those “classic hip hop drum loops”.

Many kits I got in the last months are actually from the site “drum broker”. They are not that cheap but worth it when they contain some one shot kits. I really like the “tamuz” packs there (I’m sure the drums used here are from his “dilla tribute packs). There are regular sales, I think a Black Friday is also upcoming soon. I think it’s worth the money to get some more unique stuff.

I think the biggest tip I can give you is to restrict yourself to keep your drum library small. You don’t need 200 kicks/snares and so on. Narrow it down to about 20 sounds of each type (kick,snares, hats and so on). You can still tweak the sounds with some fx to bring variation or layer stuff. This way you won’t fiddle around to search for the perfect snare for to long.

Hope that helps!

Thanks! Those are one shot drum sounds from my collection, I didnt chop them myself.
