Finally, thanks to you, I ordered my Akai Force this morning. And I'm already going through the documentation, without forgetting your tutorials, to take some cues. Thank you for everything !
@Maxipok Music Do this mean there will be a part#2?🙄 And don't forget about the Offset playback feature, which could be really cool for this stuff. You can make custom arpeggios!
Nice one mate! Love this idea. New to the Force from the MPC & pretty sure using the macros like that isn’t possible on the MPC & suddenly opens up massive possibilities for me to consider 👍🏼
Really great concept and idea. Speaking of arpeggiator, I've looked around on the force but can't find a way to have the arpeggiator play "live" from held down chords. As in, I want to record the chords, then be able to set the arpeggiator after the fact and try things out and change the mode on the arpeggiator. But seems you have to record the arpeggiator "as is" with the settings you've picked before recording since it's writing the individual notes upon recording and not the chords held. Any tips?
Thanks, I’m glad it was useful! Yeah the arp doesn’t work after the fact, unfortunately. But there is a latch control if you hit shift + arp, which will hold whatever notes you play, so you can trigger a chord and experiment with arp settings, and when you get the sound you want, you can then record it. That’s the closest option I think…

I’m glad the videos have been helpful, have fun exploring your new Force! 🙂
This is really great. Thanks.
Really cool idea!
This was a great tip. Thanks
Interesting concept! Thanks for sharing
Very nice! Maybe triads, on four layer pads with one repeating note based on the "scale" position an eight pad scene. Lots of possibilities!
perhaps w the first, third and fifth pad a single note :)
You could also use the simultaneous play feature in track edit to have each pad triggering other pads, each with 4 more layers.
That’s a good idea, I don’t use that function very often. Need to experiment with it more…

Thanks, glad it was useful. Hope you are enjoying the Force so far!
nice
Thank you.
I made a similar setup, but each layer had different notes from 3 chords.
I sparse sequence created random chords.
That’s a good idea, I’m going to give it a try! 🙂
