MPC-2-DAW: Multi-Tracking Templates
The Shortcut for Multi-Tracking your MPC Productions in Logic Pro, Cubase, or Ableton.
Accelerate your MPC-to-DAW Worfklow.
If you’re anything like me you love the current generation of MPCs for their fast and fluid workflow… that is until it comes recording your performances with them. While you can easily bounce all of your stems or export Ableton sessions right on the device, there is no easy way to play with XYFX and track mutes live while recording each track or program onto individual audio tracks.
To take some of the tedium out of this task I have created these Logic Pro X, Ableton, and Cubase templates that come pre-routed for near instant multitrack recording from the MPC software. I have provided 8 and 16-track templates for each DAW as well as instructions on how to load up your projects. Note that this only works in controller mode.
Product Specs
What you’ll need
- Any MPC 2.x hardware (also works if you only have the MPC2 software)
- The MPC 2.x software

Where do I download the MPC software?
To get the MPC software and plugin, head to https://www.akaipro.com/customer/account/index/ and register your MPC to gain access to all the downloads. Note that you also receive a ton of free expansions with your MPC that can be downloaded right there.
Logic Compatibility
Logic Pro X versions prior to 10.5 will NOT be able to open these templates. You will get a message saying that the project file in question has been created using a newer version of Logic. However, the download links include a video showing you how to create your own template in previous versions of Logic!

About me
Hi there! My name is Chris and I'm a sound designer and audio mixing & mastering engineer based in scenic mountain region of Berkshire County, Massachusetts. While my background has been performing and recording music, it was the process of creating my first ever musical sample pack, Low'n'Slow, that truly made me fall in love with sound design in 2019.
These days, I design and implement sound for video games, have sampled rare synthesizers and drum machines, turned field recordings into contemporary hip hop drum kits, and created loops for fellow producers to use.
I strive to provide uncompromising, meticulously captured high-quality audio assets at an affordable price and help creatives at all stages of their career find the right colors for their sonic palette. My Blog also provides insight into my process, and my gear page highlights what equipment I use to create these libraries.
