But if you don't split the drums, how would you go about pulling certain drum sounds out in different parts of the song when it comes to arranging. I don't own an MPC yet. Ordering mine Wednesday. But this is definitely something I'm curious about. I would assume to keep all the drums in one track and pull some put at different parts you would have to copy the main pattern and create versions of it for the different parts.

Nice vids mate. Just got my Live a couple of days ago and getting into it. Old 4000 user, so not entirely new to me but there are some great new functions and loving the speed of it. I'd add another tip that I thought of watching your vid. Get a decksaver or other such cover. I ordered mine the day I got it and judging by yours (no offence), I'm glad I did. This things a dust magnet! Was going to ask where you are from, but checked your profile. I was way off, thought your accent sounded Dutch or Scandi!

It was weird I was thinking "how would I cut out drums in a track while recording?" then you covered the pad mute part, it didn't make much sense to me because while you muted some there wasn't much change to the track but most likely because I'm watching on mobile.

Hello , i am struggling between an octatrack m2 or the mpc live,i allready had once the octatrack and it was rock solid (no crashes,glitches etc..),but i had to sell it of personal economic reasons,now i saw the mpc live and regarding producing hole songs and sampling power its on paper actually smokes the octatrack,but i saw many complaints about stability and relaibility,some questions to somebody who had used the mpc live : -can i make a 2 hour live set without worring about crashes,and sound glitches?(clip launch mode) -Does it get stucked while having multiple parameters automated? -can i sequence several midi mashines at once? (example two friends come over for a jam,and i connect two different midi keyboards to trigger different midi channels,so i can jam with the pads,while the others play melodys on the keyboards)e.g. multitimbrality -can i load samples and make editing while the sequencer is running in clip launch mode,without overcharging the performance relaibility? -can i change clips in realtime without stopping the sequencer? if somebody has experience with mpc live,please help me with my decision,thanks!(ps: I dont care about connecting to computer and wireles midi etc,i only want to use the standalone mode)

I was hopping to see if anyone with a Live could help you. I own the Touch so I can't really answer all your questions. For the first 2 questions I can't answer seeing that I don't own the live. For question 3 the answer is no. If you want to have a midi key playing sounds on the Mpc, it will only play the track that is selected on the main screen. This is to receive midi. If you want to output midi you have multitimbrality. You can load and change samples without stopping the sequencer. You should also watch this video kzitem.info/news/bejne/wo6pzIOZcWuWgG0

Can you record the FX like filter, stutter etc., too? The fact that automation can pad and track mutes can be recorded are a big plus when it comes to arranging. This pisses me of on Maschine, since this is STILL not possible... Thinking about switching to MPC in the near future.

The idea is the same but the track and one single pad are two separate things. The pad mutes refer to the samples that are associated to the pad inside the Drum programs. When you go to track mutes pads serve for you to mute tracks.
