Thanks a lot Alvin! Hope you like my other videos too. Just started making these tutorials and am planning to release a lot more. What genre of music are you making?
Thank you Expectaz for this demo. This trick can be used to emulate the "pumping" effect of a side-chain compressor, even if this trick can already be done with the Mother Ducker effect. Your demo is very easy to set up and is probably less CPU resources consuming.
I discovered this by accident last night when i was trying to figure out the envelope follower and had it on the "random sample and hold" option and i was messing around with all the knobs playing in xy grid not expecting the synth the randomly sync up with a kick drum that i had on a another track. I'm pretty new to all this so when that happened even though it wasn't intentional i felt like a genius lol. Thank you so much for posting this so i can do it again... properly :P
It’s an amazing feature indeed! The force got a lot deeper with the latest update. I’m still exploring lots of stuff too. Wish you great music and creativity! 😊
Holy sh!t, this blew my mind. During the video i was like "but can it still trigger when muted"...baaam, crazy additional LFO with unlimited shapes and destinations. Thank, i subscribed right away.
Thanks Expectaz . Very helpful and clear tutorial. Hope to see more tutorials and demos in future on your workflow with the MPC 2 , force and the synthesizers.
This is a very nice feature. Will definitely go and make some more tutorials. At the moment I’m focusing on realtime audio looping and creating songs in near realtime. If that works out I will try and explain :)
please keep these videos coming !! what a boss. thank you for shedding light on this marvelous machine im new to all of this and your video is one of the best ive watched so far subscribed!
One thing to consider when using this method: you'll basically loose "undo" functionality. Unfortunately AKAI implemented this "performance mode" that way, so all these macros are actually changing the parameters they're assigned to. (on octatrack for example scenes are changing the resulting parameter, not the source one). And because of such implementation, each time macro is changing something you'll have this change in the "undo" history. :( But if you're not relying on "undo" too much, then it's a killer feature ofc. I've tried some psybient ideas and had a lot of fun with all these modulations :)
You should have more subs - I watched an excellent techno set of yours last night, now an excellent tutorial. Hopefully a lot more subs coming your way 👏🏻
It’s an amazing machine! You will have lots of fun. A great idea which I did in that set was to make loops with korg gadget and beatmaker on the ipad and record loops with them. You can then assign some fx and filters to the audio and play around.
@@Expectaz I'm in the same boat - i have an iPad pro and a pile of great synths (love the arps on the Moog Model 15 app - recommended) - a quick question - do you ever control these apps from the Force via Ableton Link? I'm thinking of using the chord function in the Force to trigger the arps on my iPad synths, recording the audio back into the Force - gonna get my head around that later.
@@allanroney Ableton Link is only a syncing protocol like midi time code. Unfortunately you cannot send notes or other midi data but I think you can use wifi network midi but I haven’t tried that yet.
Thanks for sharing! I try to learn to play with the Force for 3 weeks now, really nice 'groovebox' with lots of options. And this kind of video's are verry helpfull! From: Son (Noord Brabant) de groeten!
Thats very cool. Good tutorial. I was looking at the new maschine+ but I should be considering this too. Hard to find videos on this. Like the hype synth. Can you make sounds from scratch?
Hypesynth can be used to make sounds from scratch but not every parameter is available. You start with a so called template and have to work with that.. Tubesynth is better for building sounds from scratch. I’m making a tutorial about how to make a kick drum with it. Maschine plus has some cool synths but I think the sequencer and power of the force will blow the maschine away.
@@Expectaz I have a Triggerfinger Pro and AIR software, which is useful but tied to a computer it's not a standalone bit of kit. I really do like the Force though.
Hey Julien! Haven’t had time to do so yet, but it’s definitely possible. Tried it with some simple parameter to external synths and this just works. Amazing stuff! Heard someone say it also works with cv but I haven’t tested it yet
I just tried the trick and its working really cool! But here is the thing, when i stop the ghost kick clip , the env still working even when the ghost is not playing anymore, so it must be a kind of recording
Really? That’s weird.. Haven’t noticed that behavior.. Will try it :) For the rest it’s working great to have your effects follow the kick. Hope Akai implements time synced lfos too
@@Expectaz I've sent a suggestion to the support team, they replied already being very helpful. I think with a little pressure from the community we could have it on MPC. Also that Learn button is crazy, I want it! Great music btw, I'm checking your other videos.
@clonn Thanks for reaching out to Akai! Would be great if they implement it. The control knobs on the force with learn are indeed very good. Macros is also something I would like on the mpc. One knob controlling multiple parameters at once, with definable ranges

Thx a lot! Next to volume ducking it’s possible to assign to every parameter which makes it more versatile.
Perfect and concise! Thanks!!
It’s an awesome feature! Used it on my external synths as well..

You are not only a source for good music, but also for valuable tutorials!! Thanks for sharing mate 😀👍
Thanks a lot Hansu!! This envelope follower thing opens up a lot of creative possibilities!!
excellent tutorial!
Thanks a lot Dustin! It’s a great feature
Informative, short and sweet! Thank you.
Very welcome! Hope you find a good use for it!
Good one, thank you!
It’s an amazing feature, enjoy your force!

Thanks a lot!! I love the Force for making music as you’ve seen. Hope to inspire everyone to do so too.
Awesome 👌
The envelope follower and lfos are amazing. Also to control external synths
Thank you very much for this video. Very clear and useful, much more than the User Guide of the Force.
It’s a great trick! You can also use it with external synths which make them more powerful
excellent vid man
Many thanks!! Even as this is my first one I love to make them ;)
Very interesting! Thank you for sharing. Love the force!
Hope you find some great use for it!! The update is great
this is great explanation, will definitely try this trick when ill get my force out again next time. thanks bud
It’s an amazing feature! You can do a lot with it
Great job! I need to update mine, these improvements are really sweet. Thanks for your tutorial 👍🏻
Yeah Damiano, you'll love it! Aside from the arranger I love that you can now have a Program Change per clip. Amazing Feature
Oh yes twin😁😁😁😁😁 knew ya be good at this!😎🙌 I midi learned something😂😂😂🎶🍻
Heya Sis! Yeah my first tutorial... Not native English speaker here, but trying to give my knowledge to the world so it can also midi learn from me.

Wow didn’t know that.. but now you’ve mentioned it, I did see a lot of undo stuff. Hope Akai will address this in a future update.
Resampling...
great video-really well explained and easy to follow ! you should def make more!
Thanks a lot Claudio! This was my first indeed, but have a few more that are already recorded so will release those soon!
@@Expectaz cool-looking forward!
Great tutorial, thanks bud!
Thanks Ian!! Hope you’ll find some great use for this
Goede uitleg nice ! 😎
Dank je Rons!

Yeah I really love that set too.. was experimenting with loops and sound there. Love the force! Do you also have one?
@@Expectaz just got one, inspired by your set, and helped by your guides - keep it up

You know i will mate. 😉
You sure will!!
💪💪💪 Really cool Joris!
Thanks a lot Klaus!! This opens the doors to a lot of creativity
Thx dutchman
My pleasure!! Geen dank :) Ik zie dat zelfs youtube me verstaat met de automatische ondertiteling dus het zal wel loslopen hahaha
But seriously....professionally...great tutorial😉😎
Thanks!! I already made some more... think it's part of the hobby now too
@@Expectaz well I bought force to do..but got distracted😂 so twin you go n I will learn lots xxx think they might take off for you bud x
Would really like that!! I’m going to make a lot more videos as this is fun too :)
thanks man
Hoe bevalt je Force?
@@Expectaz The Force Love it Good Advise From You To Buy It
Yeah it’s great! This latest update is amazing. New discoveries again
Thanks👍

Excellent video. Thanks! Does this work with an external synth ?
Yes you can assign it to any parameter or even multiple params that you like.
Internal or external doesn’t matter as long as you can create a macro for it
good work! Makes me want one even more!😜
This update is amazing!! Arranger is added but I love these nifty things!
@@Expectaz I need to stop buying toys and get some serious kit in the inventory!👍
@@SketchieRecordsUK It's best to have a balanced kit ;)
@@Expectaz I have a Triggerfinger Pro and AIR software, which is useful but tied to a computer it's not a standalone bit of kit. I really do like the Force though.
Yeah the force is amazing. It’s the most powerful standalone machine there is at the moment I believe. And love the 8x8 grid for performing
Nice one thanks, did you map it to the virus too?
Hey Julien! Haven’t had time to do so yet, but it’s definitely possible. Tried it with some simple parameter to external synths and this just works. Amazing stuff! Heard someone say it also works with cv but I haven’t tested it yet
OMG !!!
Men ! Take it easy ...
Wizard you are !?

@@Expectaz solved! I had motion record on! So no bug at all , hehe
Great find!!
Thx
You're welcome! Hope you can find a great use in one of your tracks!
@@Expectaz working on it 😉
@@MrThegodhimself Love to hear it when you’ve got a song!
@@Expectaz just uploaded a preview
Going to check it!!
Why we don't have this in MPC?
Not sure, would love it! On the other hand the MPC has flex beat which Inwould love on the force

why do i want to sell my force now?
I wouldn’t know why you would sell the force. In my opinion it’s the most powerful groovebox that’s currently on the market.
@@Expectaz im saying you made me want to sell it. get it? im not selling my force.
What do you mean exactly? Don’t you like my video?
@@Expectaz nah its cool. keep on truckin my man
You too, have fun!!
