mpc feel and groove

[Sac]

what is the feel ang groove and does the mpc 2000xl have it? How do you use it?

im sure it has somethin to do with the circuits n shit in the mpc, well as far as i know, the mpc 60, 3000, and 2000 have it. I never had a mpc tho, i just read alot of things.

U have to work on a MPC to know that feel... it has a unique "swing" to it... basically... it sets certain notes off to give u more of a real drummer feel, by applying the swing to your drum tracks...Dr.Dre, kanye, J-dilla... they all use the MPC and if u notice they all got that "swing" to their beats, that shit that just make u wanna nod your head... U can get the same results from computer sequencer programs like ProTools, FL studio, or Sonar, they have preset quantinization settings that u can apply to your midi tracks... and they are pretty close to that "mpc swing"

yea it puts a humanize swing to it, so some if the notes are slightly off.. u dont really hear it u feel it.. its weird but u can do the same in any sequencer but mpc just does it a lil more perfect.

i think i may be rhythmically deaf because no matter how much i fuck with the swing i can't hear/feel any difference

if you can't hear the swing, try playing your high hats on every 16th note, then apply the swing to them. You should be able to tell a difference.

U can hear it when u got 2 notes rite next to each other.
