AKAI MPC Masterclasses Summer 2008 at DV Stores

[Jeremy Lumsden]

Andy Mac from Akai UK is touring Digital Village this summer.

Andy will be hosting MPC Masterclasses across all DV stores but you set the agenda.



DV invites anyone who is interested in attending a FREE MPC masterclass to use this forum thread to decide the content of the workshops.

Please feel free to tell us what topics you would like covered e.g. what is the best way to use the MPC with Logic?

The first date confirmed is DV Bristol on Wednesday 23rd July. The workshop will start at 1pm and finish at 8pm. Each session will last 45 minutes and will start on the hour. If a particular topic proves to be popular, we will repeat the session during the day. As always, free beverages will be provided by Digital Village.

Please contact DV Bristol to reserve which sessions you would like to attend once they have been decided! Or just contact any store and register your interest and we will contact you with the final list of sessions and confirmed dates.

(Please check back on this thread for Akai dates in other stores T.B.A.)

That's great. I should be able to come to the one at North London providing that it's after the 3rd August (when I return from my holidays). I'd love to have the opportunity to play around on an Akai and get some tips.

Hi Guys I'm Andy Mac from Akai uk. Some of you have probably seen me at tradeshows and underground events we have recently been holding so let me tell you what's in store for our DV Masterclass tour.

All you need to know about MPC'S

Have you ever wondered how you can make your drum sound professional like a record and how to work a groove and how this is all done from a MPC. Well here is your chance.

I'm taking people on a class with a step by step approach on why you should buy a MPC and incorporate it into your DAW studio (cause making tracks will never be the same again)

I will be showing you how to remix a vocal and how to add punch to your drums without the need out outboard so the hard work is done before the mix.

I will be also talking about and sharing tricks & tips and secrets that I have developed and used on countless records.


So please join me on these events and feel free to email me any questions.
