I am the happiest man alive, this is the best purchase ive made.. im in love with it

Tip - Press sample and seq at the same time to highlight both so you can play your samples while looking at the sequence screen

This video is the best I've found to baby step me through the process of starting a song. So many other videos assume I know anything about this machine, I didn't. The only thing I knew about this machine is "I hit pads, pads make sound" lol. Great video, thank you! ☕

Thanks for taking the time to share this with us. Cheers

10/10 Tutorial.

Tube, mate ive "known" you since the first mpc live and when your channel was a pup. you are deserving to get some love form inmusic. that said, ive had all the inmusic "mpcs" - now i have both the live3 and XL and the mpc sample. ive got to say, the mpc sample is the first inmusic machine ive not ever had to crack open the intrsuction manual. this little thing is so intuitive! its limited and that sparks creativity!! i adore this little machine and ive done so many little things on it since i picked it up on launch day. your tutorial is simple, direct, and to the point. i love andy mac and he makes this machine sound!! but he's not taking time to do these little steps that you are doing (not hatin' on andy, it's understandable as he is selling the machine not doing a class on it) , and thats what matters. Appreciate you!

Nice tutorial and walkthrough. Yours is a bit more advanced than some of the others I've seen so far, and the way you explain the detail is very helpful. Thanks!

The fact it has an sd storage makes this so much more powerful than the ep133 , which I love so much but hate the space limit

Just got mine today.

So far best video tutorials i was learning from - massive thank you TUBE DIGGA 🏅🏆🎖🥇

Be cool to have a more sampling theory video. The filter isolating and using 16 levels as a fake delay are things that a lot of tutorials leave out. Just basic techniques for how they used to do it back in the day

Thank you - this is an excellent tutorial video - well paced, well explained, and extraordinarily helpful to me having received my MPC Sample this week. Hats off to you, Sir!

Yet another in depth and very helpful tutorial from the Master as you won't find elsewhere. It took way too long to Akai to realise about it. 🙌🏼 👊🏼 Thank you!

25:08 thanks for showing this feature, i didn't think the MPC Sample was able to do it and i was about to return it back to Guitar Center as that feature is a major part of my work flow.

Thanks for this fantastic video.

That was a seriously good tutorial, well done, thank you.

Can't go wrong with a nice bit of Schifrin.

This is the best tutorial I’ve seen on this, thank you! Loving mine so far.. I feel like I’ve had to kiss a lot of sampler frogs before finding my sampler prince and this is it!

Incredible tutorial, I only wanted to skim for a function i needed and ended up watching it all!
