    Agreed, 37 keys is perfect. I see people always commenting on the RAM, but this isn't a general purpose computer, so it doesn't work the same way and should be sufficient.

    • @AccurateBeats
      @AccurateBeats  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

      Yeah, that’s true… We had the same discussion on Maschine+, Push 3, on MPCX and other devices…. But I guess it makes sense too. RAM is cheap and people have handheld gaming devices with crazy amounts of ram in their hands.
      It’s absolutely not the same since the MP doesn’t run windows or anything graphically demanding. But I see how people get things mixed up.

If Akai implements a proper disk streaming (not just for audio tracks like the Force , but for instruments and plugins, 2G shouldn't be a problem plus the load time would be decreased)

    I bought a mpc live 2 , and had it for a few months before putting it away...
    I understood absolutely Nothing on the work flow ??? Just Did Not Get It...
    I just picked up the key 37 hoping the keys would be a help...
    I figured it out pretty fast with this one... and think the keyboard aided in that...
    By the way the plug-in instruments are Stellar , even the stock ones..
    I added the Piano , and Hammond B3 , and the mini - D , Fabric , and Studio Strings...
    The Quality of these are so good that I Do Not have to use my Nord in recording...
    Absolutely Stellar !!!!
    And a Shout out to the Leslie simulation on the Organ Also... wonderful ...
    Thanks to Akai for the Inspiration from this Little Workhorse..
    FYI.. I am a 73 yr. old musician who had to Actually haul 300lb. Organs , and 80lb Rhoads Pianos , and Leslie's ..

    We could call it an MPC One with keys.
    But the truth is that any modern MPC is a workstation and these MPC key 37 and 61 are the equivalent of what we had in the past.
    Some things like the Motif ES6 which was a sampler and workstation with high quality preset sounds, things like the Roland Fantom GT and also the Akai S1000 KB which was a great sampler for playing sounds with the keys.
    Now these models have everything that we had, in current standards, they handle gigabytes of ram and disk space, really with machines that in the past could have been an object of desire, but we live in times where people do not appreciate the things that come out. . .
    A mini-workstation with keys is, for me, the correct definition for the MPC Key 37, it is perfect for small home studios or to be more portable to place in minimalist configurations with keys, really, the keys offer another type of more direct experience on each note, to play bass live or some sound with a base created for conductors, great to be a complete instrument for TRAP music.
    We already know that no sampler has a labeled music style, but this keyboard is perfect for a DJ setup, where you can play some lines live.
    Only Calvia knows how to make the color red elegant, but Akai here wanted to play at being Clavia and didn't get it right with the shade of red.
    I prefer it in a blue MPC 4000, 2000XL style with gray backlit pads.
    But the good thing about an MPC is that they can be customized and that is not possible on other machines.
    When you buy an MPC over time they become classic and still have their parts available in stores like ¨mpcstuff¨

    The RAM issue is nothing for the truly creative. I’ve had my AK-37 for three days now and it simply smashes any other keyboard workstation out right now for a lot of reasons: workflow, functionality, sounds, expandability, inspiration, multi music genre applicability and more. Dollar for data this is the best gear buy for me in over 10 years. Props to Akai.

    It’s like anyone into hip hop trying to learn but have to listen to music that isn’t for them.
    It’s clear by the advertising, marketing and who they gave pre release models who they want this to be for which means it most definitely isn’t for me.

    When I see a red keyboard it’s usually in a toy shop. Black is far more classy. 37 keys does suit the profile and fills the space nicely.
    It’s a workstation not a MPC Tbf.
    2GB ram is pathetic but it does give life to the live 2 and MPC One line but it does suggest that for the next few years there’s not going to be much in improvements.
    Price wise is fair but if you add all the extra paid for plugins to make this thing sing then it’s a tough sell.

    I will never for the life of me understand why companies make a portable device and not make it actually portable? I could have lived with all the other limitations, but not having a battery in it so I can take it on the go, which to me would be the stand out feature since it's very similar to the bigger brothers, to me this is a missed opportunity. I know people can "technically" get it to work with power banks, but I think they should have wised up and put a battery in it. If they had, might have bought me one. Oh well.

    Do you have a video on how you deal with copyright claims and such. You do mostly sampled music, so I'm guessing you've deal a lot with copyright issues? Do you have a video on that topic?

    Does the MPC Keys 37 read general midi, midi files, or does it have an audio recorder like its older brother key 61, for recording complete vocals?

  • @unclemick-synths
    @unclemick-synths 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Would I have bought this instead of my MPC One? Not sure I would - I predominantly input audio to chop and almost never use the plugin instruments. I'd find it a pain to reach over the keyboard for everything.

    Ugly. Why they didn’t use the se color scheme is beyond me. That thing is beautiful. No GAS at all, live 2 is op - battery, very capable speaker and portable. Add a midi keyboard or Bluetooth midi keyboard, it’s amazing. Best piece of gear I ever bought, and I was a maschine head since 2012.

    This mpc is a fail in many ways and you really didn’t dig deep into it, pretty much a commercial. Old workstations like trinity or similar are more player and producer tuned, 37 is a toy you can play outside with. I guess best scenario for me is practicing with it to learn the mpc daw.
