Mpc 2kxl: look for it on reverb.com or ebay
Here is a video showing my 3 mpc machines and which one might be right for you if you are looking into purchasing your next akai mpc controller or standalone machine. The Akai MPC Studio 2 is an amazing machine to pick up and start making music on your computer especially if you have all your drum sample libraries or splice account linked up in your computer it makes it easy to drag over your samples directly into your drum pads to start sequencing music on the mpc software, beat making on the mpc studio mk2 is so fast and straight to the point. Now on the MPC ONE i just absolutely love it because it is an mpc one standalone machine I am able to make beats on the mpc one without having to be attached to a computer screen. If you want to go completely standalone in your beat making process i highly recommend the mpc one, it's amazing for chopping up samples in the mpc one or even sampling or programing drums on the mpc one. Now the MPC 200xl is my go-to mpc if i want to lock in and take my sweet time making some hard grimy boombap style of beats as sampling on the mpc 2kxl is also amazing it will take some time to slice up samples but it is fun and worth the time.

mpc live 2 mainly. had a mpc on my wishlist since i was a teen watching alchemist on the 2500 but didnt have the money. last year when akai dropped the mpc one and live2 i finally made the purchase . no regrets. loving it
mpc live
SP 404 a SP 202 SP 303 atm but I'm thinking about getting a 2000xl
I got the MPC Studio 2...great machine to start off in the MPC world
After getting a little pass the learning curve it's been a freaking blast.
Just bought an MPC One and found your channel still learning it but this this is 🔥🔥🔥
MPC Live 2 is the only machine I rock with. I enjoy your videos thanks for the inspiration.
That beat when u introduce the mpc one ⛽️⛽️⛽️⛽️⛽️
I appreciate you brother thank you for taking the time to share your feedback it means a lot. Blessings to you
Glad I stumbled upon this channel. I don’t own an MPC. I’ve been producing via (Logic pro X) and a pro tools midi keyboard and Akai MK2 (occasionally) for the past three years. I plan on getting a MPC One. I watch these in anticipation for when I do get one.
I own an MPC X and I love it but I wanted something portable too so I also bought the Live 2. The 3 major reasons I passed on the One, 1. Small pads, 2. No battery and 3. No ability to add an internal storage drive. I'm sure if money isn't a factor most people would choose the X for the studio. For portability, the Live 2 gives you the most options. The first Live, I didn't want to be tethered to a head phone jack while, cooking, shaving, showering, working on the bike/car etc etc.
My personal set up...MPC ONE, Technics turntable SL-1210MK2, AKAI APC KEY 25,AKAI MX 73...mic's and headphones...All hook'd up trough TRAKTOR...So i can sample and so on...New to the game...
EXELENTE VIDEO BUENA EXPLICACION Y COMPARACION, GRACIAS POR LOS SUBTITULOS.
That 2000XL Beat is 🔥
I appreciate you brother thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and really means a lot. Thank you
great review dawg!
MPC 2000XL for the sound but MPC One for everything else in terms of workflow.
I currently own the Live 2 and the 2000xl. I also own a sp404 and recently bought myself an EPS Classic.
I bought my Mpc One half a year after its debut at $700. Then it went to $800 last year and now its at $900. I think they have a very nice update coming up soon.
Good discussion
I use a MPC2000XL or a MPC500 from the MPC models, Maschine Jam and Maschine Mikro mk II from Native Instruments, Boss RC505.
MPC One FOR LIFE
Thinking getting me one this year for my bday
We tend to take care of everybody else, but never ourselves. I think it’s well worth the investment and especially if it’s for yourself. Nothing but love and blessings to you brother and happy early birthday to whenever it is.
Useful video, thanks.
My only issue with my MPC One is the note off midi bug that Akai have not yet acknowledged. Other than that it's great!
MPC One owner here! I luv this thing, my only complaint is the 2G memory. Wish it had more so I could store all my synths from the 2.10 update internally, instead of using an SD card for storage. Other than that it’s great! If this thing ever bites the dust, I’ll probably grab the liveII
Man brother you’re right on the spot and it’s funny because those since on the 2.10 update are no joke they’re very heavy files. And I’ve been very tempted to getting a live ii just for the simple reason of its internal battery and being able to use it without an outlet.
Get a live 2
THE MPC ONE 🤯 especially with the update
It’s a whole new machine with that update. 🔥🔥🔥
@@malobeats for real
I'm liking the studio 2 so far. Coming from machine 1 software, I hate the layout of the mpc software, but the workflow is better than Ableton for sampling and chopping.
Hey brother, thank you so much for sharing this especially since you come from the native instruments workflow I’m glad you shared your input.
MPC One!!
Mpc One 🔥
Let’s gooo 🦾🦾
Mpc 1000 with JJOS XL
Absolute Love
I’ve never use that MPC 1000 but just the size and the look of it has always caught my attention it seems really nice.
@@malobeats the way I work the 1000 has all the missing features I was missing from my 2000xl
I wish they made a JJOS for the 2000XL!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
🙏🏽🙏🏽 thank you
Reason I chose the Live over the One and Live II. First, size and shape. The live is quite possibly the perfect shape. It resembles the format of a laptop allowing it to go in and out of the laptop bag easily. I always have the laptop bag anyway for work. The shape of the Live also allows the unit to sit on you lap well when on the road and while in the bed. The One did not have a battery so I would have had to find a place to plug it in to use it. The layout of the buttons, screen and pad did not seem as intuitive to me. I will concede that I am weird in that aspect so to each his own. I did not need the extra size or weight of the Live II. I never use CV and never once needed built in speakers. People traveling do not want to hear what I'm doing any more than I want to hear their mundane conversations. I always use headphones as a courtesy.
I appreciate how you think
Thanks man, this is very helpful. I use Logic Pro X and I'm just starting. I was going to purchase the MPC One..But I may purchase the MPC STUDIO MK2 to start off with. Any thoughts on that?
I Just sold my Maschine mk3 because i felt like experiencing a new Workflow and i wanted to get to know the akai flow. Plus i wanted to go standalone!
Mk3 Sold... Now i wasnt sure what to try next. I thought about MPC x, MPC one and Oldschool Samplers. I ended up purchasing the 2000xl on ebay two days ago
Peace I own the mpc x love this thing easy workflow,it’s the foundation in my home studio. I’m looking for a portable unit undecided from the one or live 2.
Live 2 is right for me
That’s awesome brother, I’m sure it must feel good to detach from any wall plugs and turn on the MPC to make music I’m not gonna lie I really do wish the MPC one was also self powered.
mpc 2500
I'm using a M-Audio Pro 49 controller with Mpc Beats. Buy I am planning buying Mpc Studio mk2 for the full software.
Oh that’s a nice set up and I don’t know the difference between the MPC beats versus the full software but even upgrading to the mkii with the full software included that’s a bang for your buck.
Mpc Beats is the free version of MPC 2.0 software this Don't have all the 10 plugins.
MPK Mini Play & MPC STUDIO MK II
Great video, Malo. Incredible content. Bendiciones!
I use my modified (battery, new screen, new case, usb-c) MPC 1000 with my sp-555. I’ll use my Live II with my sp-404 mkII when the 404 gets here.
That’s an awesome set up brother and same here I’m actually waiting on my 404, hopefully we can get it before the New Year’s.
the beat at the end of the video was so evil wtf....
mpc 1000+sp404sx are the weapons of choice
the 1000 is just slow enough that you have to think about what youre doing, but just fast enough to not make the process a chore like it seems it can become on legacy machines
plus jjos smacks
Although the circuit is not a sampler. I do use audacity for samples an stuff but thinking the mpc gonna take me where I wanna go
I would want the mpc one, BUT i reaaaaally wish that the pads were the same size as the others. I fingerdrum a lot. And I just wanna bang on it wherever without a computer T.T
Mpc one . I love it so much I was so happy when I purchased it . My only downside is the learning curve and just having all the connections it needs. Plug and go and you're up and running.
@@jonathansoko1085 yeah I studied the mpc before I even bought it I knew I could do so much I just had to get my hands on it now I'm just having so much fun
Thank you so much for sharing your input and I also agree with the learning curve, this machine offers a whole lot which is a great thing but it’s also a learning curve. I feel like I’m barely scratching the surface with the machine I just focus a little more on the sampling section but there’s still so much more in this machine to go over. And I also love the fact that Akai continues to release updates which make it worth the investment
Is there any drawback to using the MPC software as a VST in Ableton if you're planning on controlling it with the Studio 2? The way I make things is by juggling projects between Ableton, Serato, and the MPC. I use Ableton link to sync Serato DJ Pro to Ableton and I have an RME interface with a software mixer that allows me to send Serato's audio to Ableton, so if I can use the Studio to control the MPC software in Ableton, that ties everything together for me.
I'm a tried and true MPC user... Got introduced to the workflow on the 2000XL back around 2005 approximately... from there I've worked on every unit EXCEPT for a 5000 😩 and now I'm on the "X"... it's the perfect combo of standalone and controller... so for you to use the MPC One just seems redundant to have that overpriced toy lol as well
MPC one is EVERYTHINGGG. But my complaint would be: I wish there was a linear mode. If you’re used to making music left to right, it’s a major learning curve. Otherwise I love this thing more than life.
Great observation I never really thought about that since I’ve adapted to its workflow and feel very comfortable with it, but having a linear workflow as you mentioned would be very interesting to see. If I’m not mistaken I think the force has a linear workflow that it offers so there might be something similar to what you’ve mentioned.
@@jonathansoko1085 that’s dope. Really curious how are you layering vocals with the limited tracks for vocals?
I think if you experience the X it's a faster and more hands on.. It is the midi hub of my setup.. It's great. I just really like that create the idea pattern on the MPC then when I'm ready, drag and drop each audio to reconstruct in LOGIC.. I use it daily..
MPC ONE is the best, the only downside is that it isn't portable as an SP-404, you can buy a external battery but it's better to connect it as it is, but that's it, MPC ONE is perfect frfr and also Akai keeps coming with updates and that's a super plus for the community!
Hey Erick, i’m on the same page with you I am extremely tempted to purchase a live ii just simply to have it fully standalone without having a plug it into the wall and I know there’s some power adapters for the MPC one but I’m not really trying to plug-in third-party batteries to my machine.
MPC One 💪🏽😤 with my Arturia keylab 49
Oh that’s nice, how do you like that Arturia key lab? I still don’t have a midi keyboard but I’ve been looking into purchasing one pretty soon.
When it comes to midi controllers in my opinion Arturia knocks the competition out the park 🏞️ you can't go wrong it's a beast and that's coming from someone who started out making beats with maschine mikro mk3
@@mycerdia that’s awesome, I wanted to get started with the a small 25 key, does it also come with some arturia VST?
@@malobeats Do they 🤯 I believe it comes with over 1100 it's an amazing midi controller I haven't even touched a quarter of them sounds like the original if not better
Hello.
You make great videos about MPC One. I would like to ask if there would be a possibility for you to make a video comparing MPC One Standalone vs Controller mode - pros and cons and sampling comparison. I read that there is a big difference between the two modes in terms of the sampling algorithm. I would love to hear this difference.
Regards
Controller mode is underrated and much more powerful then standalone mode.
That said I use standalone mode a lot more then controller mode
Controller mode is more powerful because it uses your computer with a MPC software. Only trying the warping feature in “computer mode”, you see where it’s at - lots better.
Is the only output on the Studio the USB to a computer? Like does it have its own headphone output or 1/8" or 1/4" out?
I work on FL studio but I have a nice MPC-X in my studio to show off it looks like it's serious i promise is not troll it's the truth
MPC X
11:10 You just answered your own question as to why someone wouldn't want to get the MPC ONE.
I got a novation circuit but I’m trying to move into the mpc world. Think ima get that one just to keep away from having that computer in front of my face
Oh man that’s awesome how are you liking the novation circuit if you don’t mind me asking? And yes I know what you mean about not having to rely on a computer, going with the MPC one or the Live either choice I’m sure you would enjoy.
@@malobeats I kinda am over the workflow
@@malobeats I want to be able to record in real time and play it back, the novation is kinda more like a sketch pad. I wanna do it all right then and there. Not hating on the product thou it’s a fun ass machine. I get something new damn near everytime. Just wanna try another route and see if it works better ya kno
Is it just me or the Studio doesn't "fit" in my head as a MPC. More like the MPK...
Hey brother I absolutely agree as it is a completely different machine to our standalone units but I still feel like it fits in the category simply for the sampling workflow the mPC software offers, i’ve done my best sampling in different software’s and it’s never been my vibe until I use the mark ii I felt right at home being able to use the controller and the software to chop up and slice samples I did not feel that awkward feeling I get when I’m sampling using other software’s. So I’m still able to do sample -based hip-hop beats using this controller along with the software.
The feel of using it is just the same as the standalones, with added functionality of 3rd party VSTs, good audio warping and better sample management. Plus the Studio and a laptop, are less bulky to carry around than the Live 2.
The MPC One is very complex, more or less a DAW-in-a-box. That turns some people off it. I've also heard that its a good machine to complete full tracks, the idea that you pretty much know what you want, the MPC will get your track finished fast!
Some people prefer the Elektron Digitakt, which is MUCH more limited, but people say you get results you could'nt have even imagined before using it. Its like an inspiration machine. The sound of the filters and effects are impressive too IMO.
Every time I sample from my phone it sounds like crap..can you make a video step by step plz..
No wifi on the one might be a turn off to some
MPC One & SP 404SX
That sounds like an awesome set up I used to own a 404SX but I sold it since I only used it for its effects but I strongly regret it as I feel like the 404 effects are unmatched and I wouldn’t have love to keep it impaired with this MPC one.
Good excuse to pick up the mk2!
OKAY. I’M SUPER CONFLICTED. I’m trying to make old school boom bap beats with J dilla quality but I don’t know if I want ether the MPC One or the MPC 2000xl.
Hey Carson, I appreciate you taking the time watching a video and honestly I would highly recommend the MPC one to start with then later on I would pick up an SP 404 as a companion to the MPC one to give it that old school grudy low sound that you hear in most records but honestly you don’t really need the 404 just yet just with the MPC one alone will give you some amazing and endless options when it comes down to gritty sounds. I have the XL and I truly love the XL because I have an emotional attachment to it but I hardly ever use it since these newer and MPCs truly give me everything I need from workflow to Sound
@@malobeats Thanks man. Really appreciate the response. Most of these producers on TH-cam don’t ever respond.
I'm going to be honest, I do think the small pads on the MPC One are kind of meh. Even the Maschine Mikro MK2 has nicer pads, even when they lack the MPC feel. Not saying the pads on the MPC One don't work. They work fine, great even, especially when adjusting them to personal taste (I don't smack these small pads as hard as I'd do on my MV8800, so they have to be more sensitive on the MPC One). But if you want to do more advanced finger drumming, there really is less pad surface to work with.
This is interesting observation and I’m sure for finger drummers it might be a different point of view, as of for me I’m horrible at finger drumming lol so I’ve never put the pads to the test in that certain way. Thank you for sharing his input
@@jonathansoko1085 Nah man, I am not hating. I am directly comparing to my other gear. It is indeed, just an observation.
Then why did you talk about the new MPC studio
mpc touch for me. i cant see making music with a pc ner by, ifeel naked.
Why do y’all hate computers so much ? 😂😂😂💀💀💀💀💀
@boomboombaby9140 I meant with out a computer. I feel like you.
Only negative on actual MPC standalones is the time strech function in my opinion. It sounds crap. Both modes. It‘s not state of the art. Rest is Great.
...are you sure not the brother from marlow digs...???? you look like him...🤔.....😎🙃
Lol, i’m sure I’m not the brother lol. Well I’ll take that as a compliment. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
@@malobeats 🙂👍.. i like the beats of you both...👏👏
3 MPCs behind you?? I see 2 lol
the only reason not to own it is money haha I gotta own that someday
Hahahahaha this comment, 👍🏼👍🏼 I feel you with that as $800 is A pretty heavy price but compare to other sampler‘s on what it offers I feel that $800 is a bang for your buck. But still $800 is close to 1000 and that’s a lot of mula $$
@@malobeats I feel you get alot from 800 bucks too! I getting more hyped every day 🤪 gotta have it 🤑
