For me, while MPC Sequences have great potential for live sets, they still don't provide a fluid scene system for combining song ideas and building arrangements. This is where it would be great to see some of the Force's ideas bleed over into the MPCs. On the hardware side, Live II would have hit perfection if it had had a mic/instrument input as well as line ins. As it is, you'll need a separate preamp or mixer if you want to plug in a microphone. Conclusion AKAI just launched version 2.10 of the MPC firmware, their biggest update ever, with loads of new features and improvements! Let’s go through some of the amazing novelties you can enjoy with version 2.10. USB class audio supportThe sample will be recorded onto your computer hard drive and into your MPC 2.0 project folder. While connected in controller mode, the MPC X will act only as a controller/interface, similar to the MPC Renaissance. But once disconnected from controller mode, your project can be transferred to a USB drive, SD card or additional drive on the MPC X to open in standalone. Thomann!

With your modern production work taking place in various studios and even on the move, the Akai MPC Live II gives you all the tools you need to keep creating music the way you need.extensive control. These powerful instruments aren’t just basic emulations of iconic analogue synthesizers, but interactive sound engines with built-in processing and controls for experimenting and creating inventive We have a few issues trying to get the Akai Force and MPC Live II to sync via Link but, as soon as Ableton Live was running, they synced perfectly to that. Link works over wifi but there’s also support for Bluetooth MIDI in/out, as well as for devices such as computer keyboards, so you don’t have to keep tapping at the touch display to enter project names. Bluetooth audio, though, is not supported on any of Akai’s hardware devices.

Akai Professional‘s Sample Tail takes the stress out of chopping up drums breaks and samples. It does this by making it easy to add smooth, natural-sounding decays to the end of your samples. The Tail Length can be adjusted depending on how long you want the decay to be. Say goodbye to abrupt and jarring endings! On top of that, Sample Tail can be used to create delay and looping effects by tweaking the Tail Loop parameter. Super EnvelopesMixer mode provides a touch mixer, with a simple faders-only view, a more detailed view with mute and so on, and a Sends view. Device view gives you control over Live's devices and instruments, displaying parameters in banks of eight horizontal sliders. The encoders can be also be used if you bank them to the right place. Nobody is doing anything comparable in the stand-alone space. More Software Features The Drum and Keygroup program’s envelopes have been updated with adjustable curve parameters for each time stage and a dedicated Pitch envelope.
