    Hi mate , from Australia. I too am awaiting surgery , it can be a nervous time , especially if we haven’t underwent surgery before.
    You are right to keep occupied and in the present moment , worrying solves nothing .
    I ride motorbikes , and dabble in music , It is so good to see people who truly love something in action .
    Good luck with everything , and like the tune .

  • @NathicOnline
    @NathicOnline 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Glad you are enjoying 3.0 so far. It does seem like it has some cool stuff in it but, for me, I couldn't stand the lack of sequence level track mutes.
    I usually write songs with each section (e.g. verse1) corresponding to is own sequence. Then I will, copy a sequence and modify it somewhat (e.g. no lead track in verse2). MPC 3.0 ruins that workflow by implementing track mutes that affect every track in the song (i.e. now the lead is muted in every sequence, not just verse 2).
    I know I could use automation to do something similar, but it feels like a lot of unnecessary steps and majorly takes me out of the creative moment. I hope Akai changes this before the official release, otherwise I'll just stay on 2 (or bust out my MPC 1000). I'd be curious to know your thoughts.
    Good luck with the surgery!

    • @NathicOnline
      @NathicOnline 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      aaand Akai just added track mute per sequence to 3.0 Beta 2 lol. I'll have to give it another shot. I hope they made it a little more efficient too though. Hard to have multiple instances of Jura running with the overhead needed for 3.0. I'm still excited to give it another go though.

    MPC 3 is a great upgrade, and I'm excited to see MPC finally running the Force's V3 software instead of the old V2 platform, even if it's an incomplete beta version. It's still behind, but it'll catch up eventually. Probably.

    Hi, tiny technical suggestion...
    If you are using Resolve to edit, you might want to add the "Flicker removal" effect to the timeline.
    Set it to Fluro light
    That will take care of the sync problem with the LEDs on the pad matrix and on the Polybrute.

Here's a little advice, cut down on the red meat and fatty foods like cheese and increase the vegetable and fruits because in the long run you will be a lot better off as you go through life.

    How can I map these sounds across my keys so that I can play them as individual notes? Any guidance on how to achieve this within the MPC software would be greatly appreciated.”

    Glad the arm isn't keeping you from at least one part of your life. (I'm guessing a one armed dentist would struggle).
    I strictly use my MPC One for performance to play clips for our cover band, so my use is rather limited. I got brave, backed up and installed the update. Other than my Q-Links getting switched from Program to Screen mode, it went seamlessly. Fixing the Q-links took all of two minutes as I needed to figure out how to change them back. It does look a lot nicer and in many ways more intuitive.

    IMHO, Roland dropped the ball with the Fantom. The sequencer should have been an enhancement of the FA series linear sequencer. Also, why not add 4 tracks of timestretched audio. The X and the G had this. Anything with a ZenCore engine would be the perfect complement to the MPC.

    Hmmmmm, well I'm glad some people are liking MPC 3, I tried it and it was a disaster. UI looks janky AF with the level meters having an incredibly poor update speed so unusable. Every project I loaded from my library was totally ruined with nothing working the way it was written. I was hoping the sequencer was going to be better than the original but it's still the same old garbage. I'll keep it as it's a great sampler and pretty cheap for what it can do, however the sequencer isn't for me (I think I should've got the force to be honest, but it's huuuuuge). If it could do clips like ableton then it could be a good sequencer for my use.

Whilst it was very cool & fun, and did give me a good feeling of nostalgia, there's just no way I could go back to the clucky workflow. But each to their own I guess, whatever works for you.
