With the MPC Live II, Akai place a complete and very mobile standalone MPC on your desktop or lap. Battery or mains powered, this stubbornly independent console even has its own built-in monitor speakers.
While the AKAI MPC Series has already earned legendary status in the production world, the MPC One+ only serves to confirm that AKAI are fully and undeniably able to rework their winning-formula to bring it bang up-to-date time and time again.
The MPC X is Akai's music production flagship. This monster of a console features a 10.1-inch colour multi-touch display and functions as a fully independent, standalone device - meaning that you don't even need your computer.
If you've been trying to decide between an Ableton Push controller or an Akai MPC Live, you might want to consider the Akai Force. It's essentially a combination of both and has a touchscreen as well as 8x8 touch-sensitive pads.
The Akai MPC Studio drum machine controller seamlessly integrates with the MPC 2 desktop software. Featuring a bank of 16 pads and a fully upgraded touch-strip, this edition of the MPC offers even deeper control.
