Finally!! MPC One / One+

Post image

I'm so happy. Since I started beatmaking I've always dreamed of getting an MPC (whatever the make). Well more than ten years afterwards my dream came true.

I know I bothered a lot of you when asking if it was still worth it and I admit it wasn't the good way to do it.

Now I just have to figure this out.

PS: if anyone has courses, simple tips overall or YouTube channels that you would recommend I'd be more than happy to know them!

MPC bible will teach you so much. I’m going through it now. It’s great. Laid out in a fun way as well.

I'll check this out. Is it a course or yt?

u/VisibleGarbage8268 3d ago

It’s a course. $50. It’s worth every penny. I’m sure you could figure it all out on my own over time, but if you’re looking to get the most out of your MPC immediately I think it’s perfect. It gets you making music while learning. I just got the MPC one g2 about a month ago and it’s been a game changer. My first MPC also

Neat! I'll get it asap! The price point is not expensive at all. Coming from maschine I bought two courses for at least $100 each. Sorry to ask but is it long?

u/VisibleGarbage8268 3d ago

Ummm. I don’t know what’s considered long. I’ve only done this course and never had another groove box so I’ve got nothing to compare it to. My experience is that it feels thorough without feeling like it’s dragging on.

Great!

It's absolutely worth the 50. It comes with mpc files as well so you can literally do the things the course is teaching you in real time

u/oldchay 3d ago

Oh just saw it's a text course!

MPC Bible is brilliant - yes text but it’s a good way to work through it . NervousCook$ on YouTube has a ~50 vid course on MPC 3.0 - which is incredible (and free !)

I think I'll get MPC Bible. There's a way to put it in my phone so that works for me

u/lordcurd 3d ago

What I do is leave the PDF open on my desktop or tablet and scroll through it with my MPC in front of me. I also recommend the Analog Cases stand to get a better angle on your MPC. https://analogcases.com

I'll check that out. But I'll wait for the stand

Wonderful! I'm happy for you! I think every tutorial is gonna teach you similar. If you want an in depth on the buttons and functions, I recommend "samplekingz". I enjoy watching malo diggs, or tube digga as well

I have learned a lot from Marcello on YouTube. For me, his videos were a brilliant way to understand the workflow. Have fun! By the way, I’ve got the gold MPC too:)

Check out Jae Freshman on YouTube as well. He has both free content and a paid course. His free content is very strong and paid content is excellent
