In this video I go over how to set up a reverb on a send/return inside the Akai MPC LIVE and talk about some reasons and scenarios why you might want to use a send/return versus an insert.
I also go over how to midi map your send so that it can be controlled by an external midi controller.
Insert vs Send/Return FX
Reasons or scenarios you might use a Send/Return rather than an insert.
1. A limited amount of inserts (4 per pad)
I've been developing my mix process and will use inserts mostly for EQ and Dynamic plugins while reserving send/returns for fx such as reverb & delay.
2. You can use a single reverb on a return and apply it to as many pads as you need. For example on all of your drum samples. This can create a cohesive/glue effect (consider the sound of a room that a real live drum kit would be recorded in) this may also save your CPU processing power.
3. Automation (automate the amount of signal on your send/return fx.)

In this video I take a look at the new auto-sampler feature in the MPC LIVE now available in update 2.3.
I show the process of how to create a keygroup program using the auto-sampler with the MPC LIVE standalone sampling an external sound module/synthesizer. Specifically I am using a Yamaha MX49 Synth, using midi from the MPC LIVE output to trigger the keyboards midi input using the auto-sampler.
The whole process is automated and requires very little set up.

Mixing Inside the MPC LIVE Standalone
Pt.3 Firmware Update 2.4, New FX, Sidechaining, New Mixer?
I've been sleeping on Firmware update 2.4 but with it comes a ton of new FX from Air Music Technology and Akai Professional.
I scroll through all the fx and audition all of the presets with the Air Reverb plugin.
One thing I'm very happy to see is a visual representation of a gain reduction meter on the new compressors.
I use this new visual to explain my understanding of how compressors work and I also look at the new Mother Ducker, sidechain compressor from Akai Pro.

It has been a while since I shared a vlog, this week I talk briefly about not wanting to use computers for music production, wanting to use my MPC LIVE not only for beatmaking but also the mixing process.
I make a beat using a guitar loop from a romeo and juliet soundtrack and play around with my keygroup the Lifted Trumpet, a multi-sample created from vinyl samples.
I talk about my Keygroups that will soon be available as Expansions for the standalone MPC LIVE.
In this video I share my thoughts.
Welcome to my vlog. Just my thoughts. Pursuing a living doing what I love while balancing work, the busyness of life and attention on family.
