hi everyone
I bought a mpd24 but I’m a extremely no sense of music. I just want to play mpd24 like someone in the video(Youtobe). I got Logic and live 7 and I am mac user. So how can I start to play the mpd24. I mean should I download some samples to my computer first? And is there any mpd24 with software teaching on-line? Please show me. Thanks a lot~~

For those with problems getting the mpd24 controller to work with reason, go download the reason controller map files from the Akai website. They come with instructions, follow them and your record problems will be fixed. :)

hey….download fruity loops 7 or which ever one then go to fruity loops then go to midi settings then hit enable on evry audio device then go to plugin presets then go to generartors then go to FPC then right click empty then select it to the channel then drag your drums to the pads.

LANRE. It is just a controller. U will need a mixer of some sort that is connected to your computer to sample from a piece of hardware. Think of it this way. An MPC is a sampler with pads. These are just the pads and the computer is the actual sampler.
