Hey there @PaulTea

Hey, can you integrate Akai MPC Live 3 like Ableton Live 12 (has a link function via WI-FI)?

Yes, you can connect the MPC to Bitwig via Wifi if your computer and your MPC device share the same Wifi Network. In Bitwig you’ll need to enable “Ableton Link” in Settings/Synchronization/Transport Sync(IN)

On your MPC device, you’ll need to check the MIDI / SYNC settings and select Ableton Link for the Sync Receive option I believe ( refer to your own device Midi/Sync settings ).

Next to Ableton Link, most MPC devices can be used as a Midi Controller with Bitwig.

Defo check and install the Bitwig Studio Extension free package from Jürgen Moßgraber.

Hey, I am on tutorial 8 , am I missing something ? You indicate a track has already been built which we are going to change - what tutorial was that?

Yeah, so Nate is referring to the older Bitwig courses from Dom Kane ( done using a previous version of Bitwig ) but you’re actually going to rebuild the same track in Bitwig 5 Level 1 and Level 2 courses with Protoculture.

You’ll find the older courses here :

Bitwig Beginner Video Tutorial Level 1

Bitwig Beginner Video Tutorial Level 2

Hope this helps !

Cheers
