Registering MPC Live 3

Has anyone been unable to register their new Live 3 hardware? I'm currently in the slowest email exchange with inMusic... The website won't accept my serial. With the 21,without it, brackets around the 21, no brackets... It keeps asking for 30 digits. They maybe send one email at midnight my time, so far just requesting information I've already provided multiple times.

On top of that, all my software downloads from old hardware I've purchased that came with bonus expansions have dissappeared, and I've got no response except for apologies for the delay and being told that's a different department that apparently doesn't have any staff or something.

Not really the experience I wanted after dropping just shy of 2k on my most recent inMusic brand affiliate product. No shade to the hardware itself, it so far performs mostly beautifully. It's exactly what I needed to replace my Deluge which was struggling for my intent. Just expected better from support rather than apologies for their new AI support and the fact they can't respond to my emails even if I respond immediately.

Wondering if this is isolated or if others have had this? It's the SE edition that might matter since it was released later and has newer generated serials.

MPC Sample + little brothers = endless fun

Shoutout to Akai for making the little sampler that could.

I’m making a new MPC 3000 operating system and it’s sick

Waveform Editing
Lazy / Auto chop and assign
Wave region edits
Mute Groups
Group Assign
Track Mute for playback / performance
And more

Everything that was ment to be impossible and it’s working a treat! Can’t wait to share it. Just need vailixi and a gotek to load the file.

I'm using my MPC Sample this way.

I feel like I met an old friend. Have a good day. Hope you enjoy.

Movin' On Up

In a few days I'll finally be moving up to the Live 3 after glory years with the One and Live II, thanks to an incredible Reverb deal. I am BEYOND stoked

What were the things you noticed most immediately when you did you upgraded to the new gen? I'm most excited for the SPEED and running six thousand synth plug-ins 👹

Which one first: user manual or MPC Bible?

hey y’all, I saw a similar question in the last couple days, but I could not find it for the life of me.

Anyway, my one G2 is getting here on Wednesday and I’m super stoked.

I plan on reading both the manual and the MPC Bible, but I wanted to know from y’all which one should I do first?

Perhaps read the manual and get familiar and then pop for the MPC Bible?

TIA.

Aide au choix d’un synthétiseur portable fm avec option grosse ligne de bass

Bonjour à tous, après mettre fait la main sur un set up Volca sample 2+ Volca bass + Volca keys + pedale mgx50 et une mpc keys pour la maison je cherche à affiner mon set up pour l’orienter vers la portablité et la création de house, tech-house-deep house et pourquoi pas se frotter un peu à l’ambiant.

J’ai vendu la mpc keyes pour m’acheter une mpc live 2 et je recherche maintenant un Synthe pour l’accompagner.
J’ai un peu de mal à créer des lignes de bass ou de Synthe avec les pads.
Je serais en vadrouille pour toute l’année prochaine et je souhaite un Synthe sur pile ou 5v pas trop lourd
J’hésite entre le m Waze fm 1, le Roland arai s1 me fait de l’œil, les 2 ont l’air un peu limite et je me tâte à passer le pas et partir sur un Roland sh-4d .
Que penser vous de ces choix, avez vous d’autres ref à me proposer.

J’ai également une autre question, j’ai la dernière version mpc firmware 3.8 sur la mpc live 2 et j’ai l’impression qu’elle Bug pas mal. Avez vous une version plus stable sans pour autant passer sur une trop ancienne

Merci à tous pour le temps de lecture et les réponses

Any MPC1000 alternative firmwares besides JJOS?

With the rise of all these alt firmwares popping up, I’m curious if anyone has done some work on the MPC1000. JJOS has been a god send but I can imagine there’s even more that you could do with this machine.

The Mpc can finally do decent sound design

I made some bass tutorials on the live two back in the day but it was such a pita to design as there was practically no modulation outside doing it by hand on a sequence.

Since there are global lfos and a visual parametric eq now, we’re way closer! I do wish there were at least 8 bands and we had an ott but I’ll take it. Erosion/noise carrier ring mod would be nice too.

If anyone’s wondering- use detuned saw waves and a noise layer inside a drum group osc. Use the drum filter as a notch, then use subtle distortion and clipping with the drum fx. For the inserts, create a formant filter with vis eq 4 x2, add a flanger, bass utility, I used the flavor pro for vinyl noise on top and then soft clipped it.

Pro tip is to set your modulation up before you start designing. So go to q link edit, envelope followers and make them slow lfos or randoms, that way you can use the drop down menu and not have to navigate away from the page while designing.

I did experiment with some fx to bring out the high end as compression just killed it but yeah, we may just have to wait for an mpc ott

Posting one banger a everyday for a year

Some dweeb tried to tell me soul beats are played out yesterday and I took it personal. Soul could never be played out but to go even further I firmly believe in the “if it’s hot it’s hot” philosophy. I’m not gonna pack up all my records and start making trap beats behind a lame making a comment on the internet but that shit really caught me off guard.
