Thank u brother this was amazing and I really appreciate what you have done, u went way above and beyond with this video and it has really helped me. I now have to take a afternoon to map my midi notes out for my MPC X. One more question I know you said the pads change in certain DMD programs but do the Midi control notes that you manually put in always stay the same? Again thank U brother for this knowledge because I was willing to pay for it and I'm still interested in some of your logic courses and MPC hardware courses if your offering that. I have paid a lot of money for my hardware and software and have been trying to learn it for over a year without help and I just want to get the most out of it all. MUCH RESPECT BRO!!!!!!
Gameboy 80 No problem, glad I could help. So the MIDI mapping that you put in does not always stay the same. It will go back to the default mapping when you restart your MPC. This is why I suggested saving a project template in Logic after you complete your mapping. This will allow you to open that template which will have your custom mapping when you are ready to work. There will be full length courses for both Logic, MPC and more available on my web site NoiZreduction.com in the future. I’m currently working on a full length Logic 10.5 course. Stay tuned! Thanks again for watching! 👊🏽
Peace to the brother! I havent even reached the end of the video and already you helped solve major work flow issues. I knew how I wanted the MPC to perform in conjunction with logic but didnt know if the hardware/software would communicate is such manner but you have found the innermost workings of the mpc and logic once again and for that I am grateful brother. You are a asset to the community, I appreciate you big bro.
not even 2 minutes into the video and you've already answered what I have been desperately looking for. What you described SHOULD be the natural workflow and not the VST, that is not the reason why I bought a STANDALONE! lol.
Thank you so much for this content, I will definetly try this out. I mostly use my MPC in standalone mode and I was trying to figure out a way to incorporate what I've learned so far on the MPC into a good workflow using Logic pro as well. I'm a beginner to Logic Pro but have bought the program years ago. The workflow you detailed is a game changer for me. Time to get my Logic Pro chops up now. Thanks.
I’ve been at hung this video for two years. Today I’m finally going to do it. Got the M1 max and everything setup. This the last step. Thank you for this video
I think this is the best one out there. Focused. Clean. Nice production. Thanks for creating this. I didn't realise until I got into video, how much work/time it is so thanks for putting this together.
Thank you for this video. I finally got the MPC X. I been a MPC user since the 3000. Just when I think I know it all, my ego get’s destroyed. Lol Keep the videos coming. 🙏🏾
Well damn! I needed that.. I just asked this question in the mpc gang group on Facebook! 💪🏾 I gotta work my way through this til i get it #215salute ✊🏾
I’m glad you shared all this. I had been trying to figure this out for weeks and was about to sell my mpc one because I couldn’t get it to work the way I wanted it to. I will probably never actually sample anything but I want to use it as kind of a master controller. You just showed me a whole lot to get on my way with how I wanna use this mpc.
Thanks Dope and very instructional this helps much! Recording from the MPC in to Logic is not easy this really helps you simplified it. Thank you !! Respect.Just subscribed.
Thank you gameboy 80 for asking this question. This type of video was EXACTLY what I've been looking for for days. Thank you NoiZReduction. Great video
NoiZreduction I want to say thank you Brother,I just got into the MPC world and came across your video itwas very helpful. Thank you, thanks for being my virtual mentor. Wholeness
Outstanding Tutorial. Thank you so much for this outstanding video. Clear and to the point. I'm using Pro-tools and Cubase and the method works for both. Thanks again
Hey Mr. Book, This is one of your students from Ai 2018 (Jeff German). I just happened to come across your channel, this is dope! Yeah I'm about to get the MPC X as well. I appreciate everything you taught me man in Logic, take care.
What's up Jeff?! Sorry for the super late reply, haven't been on the channel in a minute. I glad that I was able to help you in some small way during your time at Ai. Take Care!
So good. Every one of your videos is a clinic in the saying "Slow is smooth and smooth is fast." As someone who has gone all in on Logic after 15 years in Ableton AND a fellow MPC X owner, your videos have been instrumental in helping me get everything mapped out.
outstanding. I came here to figure out how to use the MPC software as a plug in but trigger it from the MPC pads. Thought it was really weird that the actual notes weren't being recorded in Logic itself. Oddly enough; I have another USB keyboard plugged in and it works simultaneously just fine. I use that when I'm playing an instrument patch as opposed to a drum patch. The USB keyboard also triggers the notes in MPC software AND get recorded into Logic. It's easy enough to program the midi notes. THANK YOU!!!!!!
This was great! I got my mpc one delivered today. Got tired of waiting for the live II to get off of back order. You answered and gave me more ways than I was thinking. I’m your new subscriber bro.
Peace!! Yo appreciate you taking your time explaining this with detail. Been trying to do this for the longest, specially now with the new 10.5 update.
I appreciate, give thanks and commend you for sharing the details about how Logic X and the Akai MPC X works from an integration stand point of view..!!!! Kudos to you as this is completely new to me and will be of great use..!!!
Great video, to be honest, it was the only one I've found that addresses this workflow! ...Which I can't even believe, I would think that almost everyone that uses Logic would want to use Logic as the sequencer. It's just so so much better...when you have analog instruments like guitars and live drums, having the ability to edit midi notes right along side of audio is an absolute must! At first when opening up the MPC software in Logic, I just assumed it was just going to work this way the same as the Komplete Kontrol works right out of the box. I can't believe Akai doesn't address this and just make it work....JUST MAKE IT WORK! Anyway, it's just frustrating when you just want to make music and you end up being a computer programmer, and by the time you figure all this stuff out the inspiration is so gone....so gone! Again, I want to say thanks bro, you rule! P.S. NoiZReduction is a badass name!!!
First off, let me say thanks in advance for the video. Great job! 👍🏾 👊🏾 I was following the video using the MPC One with Reason 11 and was able to get a grasp on how to assign MIDI to Kong (drum sampler). Even though I already have a MPD 226 to control Reason, this was just a test run for I’m really not familiar with MIDI like most people are. Btw, If anyone has any info or tips on controlling Reason with MPC One, I would greatly appreciate it 🙏🏾
This is very cool. I'm late finding this but it's very useful information and work flow. Please let me know if you have new tutorials for 2024 and Logic Pro 11
Yes! It is something I can use to make my own drum beats because I've gotten tired of some of the drum loops lol when I hear a drum loop I hear more can be added to it but I would have to manually make a new track for it. So thank you for sharing this editorial. However, I do have one quick question to ask you. My question is how do you set up the MPC X Standalone to a mixing board? I know every mixing board setup may be setup differently. I have the Presonus Studiolive 32s iii series mixing board and I'm trying to figure out how to connect the MPC X Standalone to my mixing board. My mixing board is also a midi interface that controls my Pro Logic DAW. So if anyone has that kind of hookup please reply back, I would greatly appreciate the help and the feedback I get from the NoiZrReduction community, and as always happy recording everyone. I wish you great success in your music ventures. It would also be nice to see a video tutorial on this subject. I just know it would get a lot of views because there are so many home studio producers going through the same kind of challenges and issues I am having lol. So again thanks for sharing this information and instructions.
This is what I was looking for. I'm not a big fan of NI Maschine (I sold one of the older models back in 2016) and I'm more familiar and skilled with Akai samplers/midi controllers. Thanks a lot.
Great break down on workflow, I wanted the opposite of what gameboy wanted, I wanted to use the mpc as a slave to cubase, I go waaay back with cubase, mpc's drums in cubase will be awesome! Thanks Bro....
Thanks! A simple octave and/or transpose button for each pad and the whole device somewhere on the MPC screen would help make this FAR easier to set up. I'm super disappointed that we can't use note repeat in MIDI mode. That was one of my whole reasons for trying this. ugh Akai's missing a huge opportunity there.
Which planet did drop from, bro...? This my first video and I'm more than impressed, man. Straight to the point and Logical. I learned something from every sentence and video quality is superb. Subbing with notification. Hope you have beginners mpc (x) tutorials and more. Respect!!
nungu60a lol, I’m from earth 😂. Thanks for the very kind words. I’m glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for subscribing and turning on notifications. I plan to do a lot more videos and I have a web site where I will host full length courses check it out. Noizreduction.com
Excellent video! Very comprehensive..thanks for being thorough and breaking it all down. I have a question. What’s the advantage? Why not just use dmd?
@@NoiZReduction I tried it out it worked. Thanks Bro. I want you to keep helping everyone with your youtube videos and I am waiting for those amazing courses of yours on noizreduction.com.
Yooooooo!!!!! Your channel is exactly what I needed. I use Logic Pro x and Luna and I have an MPC Live so I’m working to map the MPC to both! I’ve been trying to avoid having to purchase an additional controller. My goal is to completely map the MPC to both so that I don’t need another pad controller. I wonder how deep of a mapping I could make with the MPC on either daw? Wanna marvel team up to find out? I don’t make TH-cam videos but this has definitely inspired me to really dove deep into mapping my MPC and creating some insane videos so that I you bro. Trying to make a hybrid dawless workflow that allows me to move between logic, Luna and ableton.
AllI can say is WOW. You are the man. Thanks for the Tutorial. Question will this technique work with Logics, new step sequencer, using the Mpc pads as input notes in logics step sequencer? Thanks in advance.
TheSupasamio I literally gave you the whole workflow.. all you have to do is watch the video, follow along and then save it and you will have you’re own template.
