We need to blow this channel up! All the info I have been looking for iPad Pro music production and delivered very concise and to the point ✌🏼
-
Just bought the Akai MPK249, wish me luck & beat Maker 3. Not trying to be a Producer per se, just need a Hobby & i love music. Your videos and Bolo da producer helps tremendously as far as Beat Maker 3.
-
I'm a little bit late to this, but this is the most useful video in the history of iPad music production.
-
I never thought the MK3 was that much of an upgrade over the MK2, but now that I realized it's got endless encoders I'm definitely getting one. It's so nice to load up different projects and just work from where you left things off.
-
The number 1 most valuable thing with a midi keyboard is the realistic timming and velocity and sound way better and natural then just clicking or tapping in midi to the grid, it's also faster.
-
great...so, is it still worth buying in 2022 or should I pick the Minilab 3 and the bundled software?
-
I have a 2017 12.9” iPad Pro. It only has 64 gb of space(30gb free). How well will the cpu perform with beatmaker 3? Can I get an external and use it to hold projects and sound libraries like my Mac?
-
Anyone having issues with BeatMaker 3 not memorizing/remembering the mapping? I saved the template, but the moment I disconnect the MK3 or switch apps, the focus actions and bindings go back to “not connected”, even after clearing bindings and reloading the templates. In other words, I have to map the controller every time I reload BeatMaker 3..
-
Can anyone tell me how to get my keys to work in bm3 with the mkIII? For some reason only the drum pads work as keys
-
What's the best waveform editor for taking whole songs and just trim/save the part that I want to sample later? It seems kind of cumbersome to convert a .wav file for a whole song just to be able to sample a small part of it, if you know what I mean.
-
Help please! how do you adjust the velocity o,n THE MINI PLAY? my keys just sound "muted" if I don't press them really fast...
-
Ok what about FL or Logic?
-
Is it necessary to run through an Apple platform or is there software that works with Windows or Linux?
-
I’m using a iPad Pro 2022 model but I’m having trouble extracting the Akai download software can anyone help me with this please
-
Does it have transpose ? So can set the lowest c to B instead for example ?
-
I just got this MK3 mini from my gf as a gift. Music production is all new to me and I'm a bit overwhelmed. Do you have any tutorial on using the application that comes with this midi controller for making a simple but entire song?
-
I have downloaded the bindings template and moved it to Focus Action Templates. Loaded it from settings, but the bindings dont seem to be working. Have I done something wrong? … Thnx
-
where do i get those stickers?
-
Thanks for this video! I just bought one of these - haven't any idea how to use it. I am interfacing with a PC and using BandLab. Curious if anybody has experience using an Android tablet for DAW purposes? I live in Asia; we have loads of cheap Android tablets avaible. Apple products are pricey...
-
How do i open your template in beatmaker 3. I cant seem to load it?
