    Got with the program...

    Yeah it makes a good addition to the One, even though I've gotten used to playing scales and chords on the pads. Wish the keys were a little bigger though; my fingers are too big for those narrow tiny keys. They weren't kidding about the "mini" part lol.

    Got with the program...

    Yup... the USB only serves as a connection for a qwerty keyboard or a midi controller (I copped the MPK mini too), or to use the One as a midi controller for the desktop version of the software. And the program is back to Simult like the 2k; can't even layer samples like the 1k/2500, even though...

    Got with the program...

    Since I've been on a rant lately about Akai, their extortion, I mean customer service, and build quality... imagine my surprise to find out that even though it has not one, but TWO usb ports, the One is not capable of USB file transfer. So you're telling me that my old school 1000 can do usb...

    Got with the program...

    But I didn't even pull out my 300 Blackout AR-15 with the blue laser and hologram reticle sight! lmao But literally, Becky with the Good Hair (my Glock 17) is wherever I'm at, at all times. And the knife (I'm a bldesmith as well) is 400 layer Damascus with a buckeye burl handle. (that's what I...

    Got with the program...

    Got tired of fooling around with the Ren (still love it, just back burner)... Wanted to be able to make beats either in the living room or on the go, and then do what I need to do in the studio. God bless American Musical lol. So i'll just add this to my ever expanding collection. And now I have...

    MPC Ren as MIDI Controller in another DAW (FL Studio)

    I signed up for the MPC3 beta in the hopes that maybe that would sell me on the software, but then I realized it seems to be just for the stand alone units, and the Ren isn't listed as compatible. I'd like to try out MPC2 and see if it's going to scratch that itch for me because I really love...

    MPC Ren as MIDI Controller in another DAW (FL Studio)

    There's a workaround for that; Beats has virtually unlimited tracks if you get a little creative with it. I wouldn't mind using MPC2, but I was a bit salty that when I bought the Ren used, I wasn't aware that it actually needed the MPC (2 or Beats) to function, and even after I registered the...

    MPC Ren as MIDI Controller in another DAW (FL Studio)

    Yeah I do the same thing with my 1000. The Ren will too on the studio PC using the actual MIDI cable, but the USB on my MacBook is a different animal.

    MPC Ren as MIDI Controller in another DAW (FL Studio)

    Anyone found a way to make this work? I picked up a Ren used, and have the free version of MPC Beats software. They want me to pay for the MPC 2 software license that came with the Ren, but I don't like their software (horrible latency issues) enough to purchase it, which I think is stupid...

    The state of beat making in 2023

    Kinda like how Old Town Road ended up being a chart topping country song? lol

    The state of beat making in 2023

    3.56 through 12 I think was 140. 20 and 21 are 130. We should sign a petition to make the new default bpm 93 and the default kit some vinyl samples and see can we subliminally steer the course of hip hop back to Boom Bap lmao.

    Top 10 Synth Bass of 70s and 80s in Logic Pro

    Man, I have the Keyboards of the 60's & 70's expansion card in my Roland XP-60 and it's amazing. Arguably the most sought after SR-JV80 card, and if you can find one used these days, it'll cost 8-10x what it cost new in the 90's. The Rhodes and Moog patches on there are bananas. I've been...

    Posting Music to YouTube - question

    I make my videos with still photo splash screens and create the video on my phone with iMovie, then upload from my phone.

    Song Key(s)

    If you have FL, it (along with several other DAW) have spectral analysis plugins to detect the notes to help you find the key if you don't have the ear for it.

    The state of beat making in 2023

    Honestly, I think we can blame FL Studio for that too. As the transition was being made from Crunk and Bounce into Trap, this was also the timeframe when pirated FL was becoming popular, and 140 was the default bpm lol
