This is a brilliant overview. I very much hope Akaipro see this, and gift you hardware to do tutorials for...and I hope other manufacturers do the same. Keep up the good work. Short, concise and digestible. Excellent stuff.
When i first learned about this machine, I immediately ordered it in April. I haven't really sat down on it because i knew I didn't know it but this video just opened me up to a whole new world. Im about to dive in.
BRO! You've literally taken me, a brand NEW MPC Key 37 user, no, in fact, a very first time MPC owner from A-Z (of the necessary basics), on how to arrange and create song, and then being able to export it as an MP3! I had no idea (again, I'm absolutely new the MPC world), that I'd even have to put a song in Song Mode, in order to arrange and then export!!! PLEASE! PLEASE! Come out with more Akai MPC Key 37 For Dummies tutorials! In fact, feel absolutely and whole-heartedly free to make a playlist/ series of tutorials dedicated to the Akai MPC Key 37. Thank you for this video Brother Nate!! New Subscriber! I've even created a playlist just for you!!
Absolutely brilliant video, so straight forward. No fluff or BS and the narrator showing off. Just the facts and the instructions of what the user needs to know. Perfection.
hey man, i just got this, coming from machine... they've just changed it to mpc3 and now I'm lost again.. ha Can you please make a mpc3 one of these? You are the very best at it, teaching, on TH-cam.
@@whennatecreate yeah he's good at it.. He speaks like Jon Jones when he's locked in and focussed. haha" hey man, we need a MPC3 one of these. I'm totally lost again!
Subbed! New to the MPC flow. Is there an easy way to load samples only to the pads and use a plugin for all the keys? So you can use both at the same time? THANKS!!
Whennatecreate I have to commend for videos like this. We really need someone to put together step by step videos for this equipment. I must say that Akai have released this unit without putting out full intuitive videos to support how to use it and to get the most out of it. That’s wrong. They should have had video tutorials ready upon its release. I think you have chance to steal a march on them. Also, no disrespect to other content creators but some of them get carried away and go too fast. You are unlikely to stick with it if that happens. Please keep the Video coming. This is a great beginning. Do you have any information on how to make quick start templates to assist with song writing so you don’t have to always start from the very beginning. Also as a side line would you be able to explain basic drum sound placement on the pads? Some teachers just seem to know exactly where the sounds are placed and are able to go straight to them which speeds up the beat creation. I really want to find a way to put together song ideas that I have in my head quickly, so I for one will be looking out for more content from you. Keep up the good work.
I’m glad the videos are helping💯 I use templates all the time. If you haven’t check my page there’s a template video and I might get around to making one for the KEY 37🎯 Thanks for watching ‼️
I used my Mac to name the SD card. And I believe you could format from the MPC and rename the card from your computer after🎯 Super Thanks for Watching‼
@@whennatecreate Thank you. Yes I'll just keep naming it from my computer.. My hooes we're so high. But now I have formatted everything in my MPC's. Thanks for the tip 🙏👍🎶
this was helpful. but when I start new project - I hear noise from the plugin but I'm not pressing anything; something is on and I can't figure out what to turn off. any clue? note, I just got my MPC today and updated to the Beta 3.
@whennatecreate I got the key 37 brand new. I did try that and as soon as I add a plugin it makes noise, like a quarter note continuously. Like it's automatically auditioning the plugin, yet it keeps playing. Also, I can play over it simultaneously. 🤦🏾🤷🏾♂️😅 This didn't happen until I updated to beta 3 lol so in my first few hours a lot has changed. Finally, when I tried recording a beat I got no sound when I hit playback. But pads had sound when recording. 🤷🏾♂️
MPC Public Beta 3. Hmmm, I’m not sure how stable that update is on different machines. I’ve been looking at it on my MPC and found some issues but nothing like yours. Maybe you should report your issues, and contact support for more help🎯
Hello, can you open other plugins in it, can you put your drum one shot sounds in it? I understand maybe some particilar plugins can be opened in it, not all? Thank you
You have a new sub. Wish me luck. My 37 is on its way. Anyone have and ideas on what should be the first down load from akai should be? Yeah i know we have one free one when registering but a purchase suggestion ?
I cant remember if they let you demo the plugins before you buy, but that would be my suggestion 🎯 Enjoy the KEY 37 when you get it, and let me know what you think! Super Thanks for Watching‼️
When I press insert sequence on the song page, it only highlights one sequence and I have to duplicate it to get the other ones. do you know how to fix this?
@@whennatecreateI’ve used a Roland RD300 keyboard as a controller via MIDI for everything for years. Once I’ve learnt how to use the key37 (I got it just hours ago) I’ll use the fully weighted action 88 key RD300 to play it.
I did this with key 37 and it worked. I returned 2 of them for not working and decided to get key 61 and just deleted all my projects so sad I’m like in shock
Don't have MPC..... thought it was complicated......YOU MAY HAVE CHANGED MY MIND..... from NEW SUB #843!!!!! ♥️

Yep, you can also load single sounds to pads and use plugins🎯 Super thanks‼️

Great video, Maybe you could include how to midi play an external synth from the mpc key37. The manual doesn't really try to explain it, Thanks

@harveygarrett4129 No prob‼️
this was helpful. but when I start new project - I hear noise from the plugin but I'm not pressing anything; something is on and I can't figure out what to turn off. any clue? note, I just got my MPC today and updated to the Beta 3.
Try loading a completely empty project with nothing in it, and see what you hear. What Mpc you have, and is it brand new?🤔

Hi!! Thanks for great simple tutorial!! About the sd-card: how do you name it?
I used my computer to name the card🎯 Thanks for watching‼️
I say the easier the better, why complicate things? I love it!
Thanks for watching‼️
I really like various rhythm patterns. Can a pattern be transferred to a track? Is that hard to do?
Like an audio track?
Hello, can you open other plugins in it, can you put your drum one shot sounds in it?
I understand maybe some particilar plugins can be opened in it, not all?
Thank you
You can use only Akai plugins that are allowed.
Yes, you can use your own samples/one shots.

Super Thanks for Watching‼️
This overview is obesolete, becaues of the MPC 3 software....please update!
💯
I listen, learn. and play the chords myself
That’s what’s up‼️
So what is the difference between this MPC and a synth?
Standard synths don’t sample🎯
When I press insert sequence on the song page, it only highlights one sequence and I have to duplicate it to get the other ones. do you know how to fix this?
It works the same for me. Once I have several, I change them around to make my song. You could also arrange your song with the 16 pads.
Why does everyone wear black sleeves
Or short sleeves😅
Bro what’s this background music? Am I in a stranger Things trailer? 😭
😅
This is needed, but bro really talking like we are universal dummies 😂😂😂
That’s funny😅
I'm a pianist at heart and I feel 37 keys is not enough to play, I'm leaning towards the key 61.
I like the 61 too🎯
@@whennatecreateI’ve used a Roland RD300 keyboard as a controller via MIDI for everything for years. Once I’ve learnt how to use the key37 (I got it just hours ago) I’ll use the fully weighted action 88 key RD300 to play it.
@charlesflint9048 Oh kool🎯
Tyler the creator with the narrative
😂 Thanks for Watching‼️
Wow so at 50 seconds my sd card got deleted with all my projects 😭😭😭😢😢😢
I did this with key 37 and it worked. I returned 2 of them for not working and decided to get key 61 and just deleted all my projects so sad I’m like in shock
I don’t know what to do with myself
😱 I always start with a blank sd cards. If I reuse a card, I’ll back it up first🎯
This is MPC 3.0??? Make "akai mpc key 37 mpc 3.0 software for dummies" 😂😂😂❤❤❤
So many request for “MPC 3.0 for Dummies”😅
