Jon, I don't use an MPC, but just watching and understanding the reason behind your decision making makes these videos some of the most informative videos on the internet. I'm an instrumentalist and usually work on everything in my DAW, I don't even normally make hip hop, but this stuff is just so so valuable. Thank you for making these.
Damn that was so smooth to watch you cook up on the MPC one, such an inspiration, great work flow and the end result was some serious gritty breaks. Big ups Craig! aka Jon makes Beats
I'm glad you are showing people how versatile this unit is for the price it is. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea when it comes to workflow, but this thing is amazing in the right hands and when it's given enough time.
Dude this comment is like some worlds collide type of shit for me. You are my favorite beat makers and I'm so glad you're aware of eachothers stuff. Music is awesome.
first video of yours that i've ever seen... this shit was mental. absolutely insane beat! makes me wanna dive into my one+ and really learn the ins and outs of my mpc. subbed! excited to check out more of your stuff.
Another great video and a cool track. Would be great if you could do a video on the process of going to tape at the end. Why it is good (or bad) etc and why it matters to you.
When you said "lets record it to tape," I thought you said, "let's record to it". I saw you standing up and I was like oh shit we're gonna hear you lay down some bars lol. Would've been cool to see that. Great stuff as always!
I was waiting for you to realize this. Watching your work flow on the other machine I was really respecting your patience. MPC 3 for sure seems easier to do what you’re doing
I use my MPC in a similar fashion I just sample, chop, arrange then add effects. Dope beat! You tried any of the in box virtual instruments? Sub Factory is my favorite.
Damn, damn DAMN! This such a moody beat i'm hearing so many of my favourite rappers over this! Like old skool busta or Eminem talking about burying a body or contemplating life......there is no in-between, amazing stuff dude i look forward to the next one Craig......😏
Wow! Dient knew you startend a YT Channel. Love Your albums and lovend Your concert at Bitterzoet in Amsterdam. Blowing up The place from Your chesterfield
Hey man, I love your work! I’m a keyboard player with plenty of synths and keyboards. Lately, I’ve been getting into making beats and am looking for something I can also use for live performances with my synths. I’ve got both the OXI One and Digitakt, and I’m considering adding a sampler, but I’m not sure if I really need it since I’m still pretty new to making music without a DAW. After watching some videos, I’m torn between the AKAI One and Roland SP-404 MKII. Which one would you recommend to help me find the right flow in the studio, especially for making hip-hop beats and some electronic music? I really want to incorporate my synths and also have something that would work well for live performances.
I assume this is the beta 3 (or whatever version)? I just got it and just got the hang of the 2.xx version. Honestly, every time I watch your workflow, I learn something new. Makes so much sense to chop up a one-shot beat and finger tap it.
@@jonmakesbeats roland has me in a headlock with this p-6 but 3.0 looks way more intuitive. cant get over how good it sounds after running it thru tape.
damn yo i feel silly haha, i was like why does this man sound like Jon Wayne, just to realize shoot it is Jon Wayne. 1st time on the channel though... Fire brotha!
@jonmakesbeats it all depends on the dynamics you're looking for... low input gain would add noise and artifacts after compression (stating the obvious, sorry) but then it could match the lofi genre you're into...?
Man I need my Tascam 4 track player fixed, I know it doesn't sound like your 2 track but I'm sure I can get a great sound on top of my analog gear.. Dope beats and videos bro I'm happy I stubbled across your channel..
OK, cutting this episode was crazy.
really happy with this one! thanks for watching everyone :)
Thanks for editing this one, bud
Cutting the beat back in at 2:52 went crazy not gonna lie
How long are the actual sessions before you edit them down? 🤔
@@kennyjaxxthey tend to be about 1.5 - 3 hours in length depending on the session. Schnoodle does a lot of magic to make it viewable for TH-cam audiences.
amazing work! Keeping the sequence of the beat going whilst the work develops and the edits continue is a real knack... nicely done
This is straight hip hop. Great job wit this one bro

That’s great to hear. You got to the core of what I focus on when it comes to these videos and I’m glad it translates regardless of format or genre
Ok this one go stupid. 🔥🔥
I'm starting to get a hang of the MPC
Let’s face it. They all do
its so nice to see you impresses yourself
Making music is fun lol
i was looking up Jon Wayne videos to see if you had new music. I had no idea you had such a dope and informative channel.
Much love from Whittier

Love how it came together!🙏🏾✊🏾💚
thanks, Linda's Son.
In the UK we pronounce it Craig
I heard it in my head
that beat had me ascending! i love it
Yaaahhh another MPC video from big Jon it is a good day.
Cheers to that
Great video Craig!
i love watching craig:) he makes jon look so clumsy!
Craig has it for sure
Its always a vibe with you, Craig. Damn. My neck is sore from back to back views. Bless!
Ice it for 30 minutes
😂
Ah, MPC and puke carpet. One day I'll have both.
You can get one of those pretty quickly
@@jonmakesbeats Nah they are illegal in the Netherlands.
What an inspring session. That beat is a vibe for real.
Thank you for doing what you do….Craig
Cheers mane thanks for watching

3.0 OS changes a lot of what I think
This channel is so sick. I could definitely hear Cage on this beat, specifically the "for your box" era of Cage.
Always heat brother 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for checking it out man! Side bar, every time I see you cook up on the X I get a little itch to just cop one haha
Dude this comment is like some worlds collide type of shit for me.
You are my favorite beat makers and I'm so glad you're aware of eachothers stuff. Music is awesome.
Damn this is one of the most rap-able beats you've made. So catchy, man. Dope
Thanks for checking it out and I agree
Craig’s List 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I make no money from that website
@@jonmakesbeats is that site even still alive? Last time I looked at it it looked like a snuff film
10/10!! The keys added at the end sound so good on top of the bass and drums ❤🔥
Thanks. I've been practicing.
the stream of credits at the end 😮 Sick beat!!
The Patreon’s members are what keep the channel alive!

Welcome to my corner of TH-cam! Looking forward to seeing you in future comment sections
OK, CRAIG! These videos have on insta and here make the world a better place - thank you!
cheers, comments like this make it worth it
this man is a monster... this beat is insane
Lloyd Banks somewhere bobbing his head.
Psh Lloyd can hit my line for this one
@@jonmakesbeats he my neighbor 🤣
@@discowolf25please actually try lol
🔥 I swear I don’t know how Craig does it time and time again
Craig is a journeyman
I've got my MPC out of storage because of this video
that's a hell of an endorsement
This sounds like it should be on and then you Pray for me. I hear the boo, boo, boos already.
Another sick cook up my man! You always seem to find the best instrument combinations. Really cool seeing you use an MPC too.
layering is my favorite part of making tracks
This is pure Fuego! 🚒
I kinda wondered why you hadn’t messed with one yet , cool to see you using one. It’s an incredible piece of kit
I had gripes with the old OS. 3.0 streamlines a lot of that
Yoo John it’s fire!
I look forward to the slowed tape version every time, so dope
Same
I've always loved the music you make
Damn, this sounded like early BadBadNotGood that's amazing
love those guys
Craig wasn’t messing around🤘🏻🤘🏻 fire bro🔥
aye brother thanks for watching
BRUH!!! You don't miss. 🔥🔥🔥
Another great video and a cool track. Would be great if you could do a video on the process of going to tape at the end. Why it is good (or bad) etc and why it matters to you.
Damn Jon chefs kiss! This is the vibe
cheers thanks for always supporting
When you said "lets record it to tape," I thought you said, "let's record to it". I saw you standing up and I was like oh shit we're gonna hear you lay down some bars lol. Would've been cool to see that. Great stuff as always!
Craig, I would line to say that you inspire me a lot.
Thanks,
Betty
Cheers, Betty!
Jon Craig😅....One More Subscriber for YOU!!!....Never seen You.... just popped on screen...as I Swipe!!!!...You are PHuking BRILLIANT!!!! 🍕🍺🍕🍺🍺
Welcome to the channel!
Get ready for your brain to expand. This dude is my fav when it comes to getting inspired to mix and create
as always ...this is art ! amazing !
Cheers
Hell yea, Craig. I got myself a Virus TI. Love it!
It's a great all-rounder
@@jonmakesbeats you should try the nord leads, 1 or 2 those are dope as well...probably my fave!! Dope beat this!
This beat is so dope, just amazing
Just wanna reiterate that I'm loving the MPC content from you. Keep it up craig ✌🏼
Thanks for watching!
I was waiting for you to realize this. Watching your work flow on the other machine I was really respecting your patience. MPC 3 for sure seems easier to do what you’re doing
It's easier in some ways and harder in others. When working on the MPC I am missing a lot of QoL features on the Octatrack.
this ones too good craig, always very inspirational
Thanks for watching!
Looks like you could fit an OT or other similarly sized box on top of that Virus keyboard, would make for a pretty cool minimal setup.
That's a good idea
You had me at “Craig”! 😂. Subscribed!
let's go getting those classic Craig subs
Love this one, heater
Spooky beats to start off October 🎃
Yeah I used to be an MPC guy and after these videos I’m about to be one again!
3.0 beta is great
Thanks Craig, you always make my day.
He's Craigin' away
Craig always cooking up somethin fire! loved this beat bro. I gotta get me an Mpc ong
Craig is the real start honestly
Bloody lovely
Thanks
welcome to jon makes beats! here is craig😂
beat turned out pretty dope
Craig came with a torch in hand to set everything on fire!
Ruthless Craig
Reminds me of Chronic album vibes with a 2011 wub , good stuff!
I was there for the wub
Actually I like this more, its on its own.
Crazy good🙌🏿💯
Thanks Shawn
Sound different but very synth funk . I like it.
Thanks for checking it out!
2:53 was slick. Not sure if it was intended or some editing magic, but v nice work Craig (& editor)
Schnoodle does wonders for sure
Awesome! 👍

Thanks for listening. Yeah I can definitely hear vocals on this one for sure
Access virus TI kb and octatrack are my two mains in the studio, such a combo
Love u Craig!
Chroma Console brother! Nice beats! Real fun watching you produce.
Thanks for watching
Early bird gets the craig
Craig disagrees with this
absolutely insane beat that you so casually cooked up
love it

Love it. Vibes !

great!!
Ooooh! Indeedy...
nice its on repeat here beat crazy
sick! thank you
You should try out the Toraiz SP-16
Would love to check one ou t
I assume this is the beta 3 (or whatever version)? I just got it and just got the hang of the 2.xx version.
Honestly, every time I watch your workflow, I learn something new. Makes so much sense to chop up a one-shot beat and finger tap it.
I'm glad you're learning from the videos I'm doing. Thanks for watching!
Sick as always 🔥
Loved this stream man! Schnoodle killing the edit as always 👑👑
Thanks for being there, Jus.freekhz. And yeah Schnoodle always killing it
@@jonmakesbeats aw man thank you!
got me tempted to take my mpc-one out of storage 😂 good jawn as always Craig
Ayeeeeee Jamal you should check out the 3.0 beta. Makes the workflow better to me
@@jonmakesbeats roland has me in a headlock with this p-6 but 3.0 looks way more intuitive. cant get over how good it sounds after running it thru tape.
@@poptartpete2man I can’t believe I found a 388 for the price. It’s turned my studio upside down for sure
Insane!
I like the mix on this one. What tape machine/mixer is that? It takes up a lot of space but sounds worth it.
damn yo i feel silly haha, i was like why does this man sound like Jon Wayne, just to realize shoot it is Jon Wayne. 1st time on the channel though... Fire brotha!
goddamn it craig
Nice to see the Virus in a smooth beat like this.
It can definitely be tame
Yes finally a Jon vid that the algorithm grabbed❤
Fire my Guy!
Thanks for checking it out
Insane, brother. 🙌🏻 New sub, fellow beatsmith, MPC One and SP404mk2 user, and damn glad I found your channel!
Welcome!
😱 omg don't stop Craig (that's what she said)
Good to see Craig came back for this video!
Back by popular Craig
Thanks for the video! You might wanna get a higher gain on your sample records, not sure the MPC One AD converters would add any 'nice' grain :)
You heard issues with my gain staging?
@jonmakesbeats it all depends on the dynamics you're looking for... low input gain would add noise and artifacts after compression (stating the obvious, sorry) but then it could match the lofi genre you're into...?
Man I need my Tascam 4 track player fixed, I know it doesn't sound like your 2 track but I'm sure I can get a great sound on top of my analog gear.. Dope beats and videos bro I'm happy I stubbled across your channel..
My 2 track is actually an 8 track! It does have a sound though. Cassettes can do the trick. try maximizing the tape speed to get a better quality.
Yup. 🚒 🚒 🚒
