"I bought the first edition and I was pleased to see the level of detail that MPC-Samples.com included. The 2nd addition takes this even further with more content and tutorials. The screen shots can be priceless if you are not sure of what you are looking at while figuring out something new. The tutorial files are very well laid out and easy to follow.

It should be said that this e-book is not meant to be an all out guide to using Logic or your MPC. “Using Logic Pro With The MPC” is a very focused and concentrated effort to walk the reader through using Logic, and all of it’s great instruments, with your MPC together seamlessly. With that in mind the e-book covers the core principles and concepts that will help you achieve that goal.

The book answered the question of “How do I use Logic Pro as a multi-timbral sound module?” for me with one little click of the mouse in Logic. Combined with what I already had set in Logic and on the MPC that one click made all of the difference in using Logic as a multi-tinbral instrument with my MPC.

I’d recommend “Using Logic Pro With The MPC” not just because it helped me solve my issue but because you also get the low down on tracking, midi syncing, multi tracking, MPC audio tracks etc., etc., and so on. Most of these things I learned over the years but you dont have to take the long route when you use this book.

“Using Logic Pro With The MPC” is essential reading for those of you that are Logic owners that may be newly venturing into hardware music production with an MPC. Take it from BBoytech Report and save yourself some time. Final note… with the 2nd edition I now have a copy of the book on my iPad as a native e-pub formatted book. Nice"

"I've just purchased and read your book "Using Logic Pro With The MPC" and loved it! Like many others, I've been trying for the longest to use my MPC 2500 within Logic to no avail until now! Your book was extremely helpful and idiot proof, which is perfect for a noob like myself. Thank you for keeping it simple and using screen shots for every example.
It has really helped me in my production process, and now I don't have to go out and purchase Native Instrument's Maschine!"
