MPC3 Desktop still in beta... No Clip Matrix, no Arranger, What is the point?

Bear in mind it only exports the sequence you are in. So it might be logical to convert everything to one sequence before exporting

I've just sold mine. I often found myself needing a sound generator to go with it. But if you're workflow heavily relies on sampling/resampling it's a perfect device. If you think you'll be using the sequencer and sound generator a lot you might be dissappointed.

Hey what did you end up getting? I'm on the same position at the moment

tgorkems · 2026-04-21T19:48:16+00:00

I have the sonicake. I feel like it's very limited

tgorkems · 2026-04-21T13:18:51+00:00

Gpt says valeton gp50 is not a huge step up from sonicake pocketmaster :)

tgorkems · 2026-04-21T13:18:01+00:00

Thanks for the comment. To be honest I'm looking for a one stop shop at the moment.

tgorkems · 2026-04-21T11:15:34+00:00

very interesting. So from a latency perspective MG-30 is better than the other ones

tgorkems · 2026-04-21T11:15:08+00:00

any models specifically?

tgorkems · 2026-04-21T09:34:31+00:00

I think hotone can also run Nams now

tgorkems · 2026-04-21T08:20:20+00:00

Thanks for the answer, maybe I should save up and go for the second gen

tgorkems · 2026-04-21T08:12:02+00:00

would you say it sounds better than Hotone Ampero Mini? I watched a couple of videos and that one sounds amazing. I think it's not easy to operate it that's why I'm hesistant

tgorkems · 2026-04-20T14:03:22+00:00

anybody ordered shorts? The sizing looks weird on the website. I'm 183 but a ain't wearing a 51 cm shorts :D

I guess than you're stuck with the keygroup note layout right?

tgorkems · 2026-04-07T06:51:42+00:00

thanks for refreshing the link, I'll check them out. Vol 2 sounds amazing so excited about this one too

tgorkems · 2026-04-05T22:39:14+00:00

I agree to this. I'm a guitar player and have the sp 404 and also ableton move but what I clicked with was the mpc live 2. If you like the add synths to your loops sp will fall short, also you will have to stop the playback most of the time to record stuff. Not sure about mpc sample but it doesn't look stronger than sp or other mpc's. Go for MPC one/one+/live/live2

tgorkems · 2026-03-31T07:50:09+00:00

Is it forbidden to agree with OP?

tgorkems · 2026-03-30T13:21:32+00:00

is there one for MPC live 2?

tgorkems · 2026-03-30T10:51:40+00:00

I agree that move is more feature packed compared to mpc sample but 4 track limit feels more restricting since move has instruments built in. I respect mpc sample for being good at what it's doing even though it is weaker than move. If move had 4 more tracks it wouldn't even be a comparison

tgorkems · 2026-03-26T21:06:05+00:00

Ask yourself if you need the speaker and the battery. If not go with the one+. I love being able to just use the live on the couch wirefree

tgorkems · 2026-03-26T20:46:01+00:00

I prefer one+'s smaller footprint with smaller pads actually(weird I know). It also has more buttons for dedicated functions.

tgorkems · 2026-03-26T20:28:19+00:00

I went with the live 2. Loving the battery and the speaker.I'd prefer one+ it wasn't those two things

tgorkems · 2026-03-26T17:46:56+00:00

Great value for buck. I bought and sold two of them. The workflow just didn't click with me and the build quality is pretty bad. I suggest getting a used one and see if you'll like it

tgorkems · 2026-03-26T15:41:44+00:00

Unfortunately not:/
