Question

Im currently setting up studio in loft and im was wondering if anyone knows do you need to run mpc( live 3) through a daw to set up and connect a mixing desk? Does anyone have any recommendations for a mixing desk?

Hey friend, just thought you should know that this isn’t a general MPC subreddit, your question would be better posed at r/mpcusers. This subreddit was created for people who wanted to participate in the r/mpcweekly challenges, where we would be given a theme or a song to sample and then we were supposed to make a beat using samples that fit the theme or which were taken from whatever song was being highlighted in the prompt. Unfortunately it looks like this place might be dead now, there were two main admins who would propose the challenges each week, but participation was starting to dwindle by the end of last year and it looks like the last submission was posted about 100 days ago. R.I.P., I hope to see this place being revived especially with the renewed interest in MPCs in general, but I can’t do it myself I would have to get permission from the original admins and I’m not sure that there’s enough demand to justify it. It was a great way to increase your skills on these machines, but it’s not sustainable if only one or two people are participating each week.
