Equalibrum - Akai MPD32 Live Beat - Live Looping

Back


http://www.myspace.com/equalibrum This was made using an MPD32, FL studio 7, And "Mobius" a free loop pedal VST. I am using pads 13 and 14 to control the looping instead of using a foot pedal. The other pads are dedicated to sounds. The FF and RW button switch what sounds are on the pads. Some of the assignable buttons are set up to control other functions in Mobius also to turn on and off effects in the FL mixer. This video is not a finished song like my MPD24 video but more of a video showing how powerful The MPD32 and software can be. This is clock free beat creation. I am not using the sequencer in FL at all. FL is just a hosting the souunds and routing the sounds to the mixer track Mobius is on. Everything is triggered Live, Looped Live, Layered Live..switching the sounds on the pads is done live. Its freeform...however you play it in is how its looped..no mistakes allowed. You play it however you want live on the fly and loop it. In the video I basically start messing with simple sounds triggered in live at different tempos and rhythms to show that its not locked into a certain BPM. Then to show how powerful it could be I go into a little live song i started..i get about half way through the song and play the same samples in differently in reverse order. Everything is done without touching the computer ONCE!!! I uploaded a FLtemplate file with instructions on the FLstudio forums. Under the "looptalk" thread. The next video will be a finished routine using this technique. I'll be taking this video down after I have a better one. Enjoy! The Possibilities are endless! -Equal
