Version 4.73 is out....!

upgrade 26/6/2007

This update is superb
ring modulation, and bitreduction, perfect for industrial and noise...
I applied these several times on
a sample,
then through analogue filter...
it opens a new universe to make
sound with an mpc 1000....

This all sounds very interesting an dI dont mean to knowck you, cos you're actually being helpful and posting links and shit...

but how many AGians actually own MPC's? I thought of buying one once, but figured that its not worth the money for me, since I was only making beats as a hobby.

Anyone else have one?

@ pYROKINETIX

I can only guesstimate how many cats have the Akai MPC series
proally 5 - 15, I dunno...

1 of the most asked Q always has to do
with the 'How do I get those Phat Drums Sounds Dun?!?!?'

I undastand software Has paralled or nearly superceded the hardware
equivalents in various segments.
So the new age trend (if you do have hardware that u still use)
is to program some drum-work, ba**lines, whatever
in an MPC then incorporate the soundpieces into your DAW
environment while still maintaining
& dedicated drum thump that all of appreciate so dearly in
this rap ish.

The other approach is to just do a whole project on it
cause of it's tactile, on the job approach.
Most of my favorite producers bang, I mean BANG!!!
cla**ic Jointz from this ish.
Jazzy Jeff, Marco Polo, Pete, Dre, Blaze, Premo, Large P
etc.

the trigger finga nice but misses Akai specific
16 Level - Auto-chromatic a**ign where you can take one note
and spread it across your 64 Pads with change in Tune
Note Repeat which is a cheat for doing repetitive stuff
like programmin Hats according to a Time Measure.

other than that the MPD16/24/MAudio Trigga Finga are solid
add-ons for percussive work on a DAW.
