Product information

37-key MPK Mini Keyboard with modern ports and controls
The MPK Mini Keyboard product line revolutionized portable music creation for producers and beatmakers around the world. The new MPK Mini Plus builds on this innovation by giving musicians the full creative control they need for great feel and ultimate expression, along with next-generation performance tools. Modern connections combine your favorite studio accessories in an uncomplicated way for complete and
Advanced hardware integration in a compact 3-octave design.

Full creative control in a portable format
Despite its compact size , the MPK Mini Plus offers extensive controls with a range of functions. The 8 velocity-sensitive RGB backlit MPC drum pads not only play dynamic beats and program drums, but also assign program changes and trigger additional CC parameters. Add effects with 8 assignable 360-degree knobs for each function, including filters, automation, panning and more. For the first time on an MPK Mini, dedicated transport controls are offered for total integration into your DAW. You stay in the creative workflow because the dedicated play, stop, record, loop and locator buttons make the constant back and forth of your computer keyboard and mouse unnecessary.

Great feel and ultimate expression
As with all MPK Mini controllers, performance starts with the buttons. MPK Mini Plus has 37 keys with the Gen 2 Dynamic Keybed for expanded and harmonious music creation. 3 full octaves mean more space for two-handed chords, arpeggiation and playing solos or soundscapes. The Gen 2 Dynamic Keybed offers incredibly playable keys with a wider velocity range and world-class note dynamics and response. With more buttons, there are more ways to bring emotion and expression into the game. That's why the MPK Mini Plus has dedicated pitch bend and modulation wheel controllers to really breathe life into the keyboard performance. In addition to the iconic joystick controllers , there is no shortage of tactile interaction for almost unlimited expressiveness.

Modern connection options and standalone operation
For spontaneous creative moments or quick jam sessions, the MPK Mini Plus can be operated in the standalone function . The new, polyphonic step sequencer is particularly practical for immediately implementing new ideas. The ability to record notes and drum patterns simultaneously makes for fantastic possibilities in standalone music creation. Connect any class-compliant USB or 5-pin midi accessory and use the CV/ gate connections for your rack or other modular synthesizers. The MPK Mini Plus is versatile enough for beginners who want to seriously develop their creativity, and equally suitable for experienced professionals who want to get the most out of their studio accessories.

Includes MPC Beats DAW for Mac and PC
The included MPC Beats software DAW for Mac and PC offers the legendary MPC workflow directly on a desktop computer or laptop and contains thousands of sounds, drum samples, loops and plugin instruments to create your next hit song. With more keys on the 37-note Gen 2 keyboard , MPC plugin instruments like Electric and Tubesynth come to life with an expanded acoustic range. Place the MPK Mini Plus on the desktop and connect standalone MPC devices to control Mellotron and Hype plugins.

Even with a 3 octave range, the MPK Mini Plus fits easily into your gig bag and can be transported with your everyday music production equipment. It's a very simple calculation: If you add the MPK Mini Plus to your workflow, the result is modern, creative expression and intuitive control for music and beat production.

AKAI PROFESSIONAL

The music division of AKAI PROFESSIONAL became known with its S/Z series samplers. The rack samplers S612, S900 to S6000, Z4 and Z8 might mean something to some. However, the models of the MPC series - originally called midi Production Center - were more decisive and formative for generations.

MPC – Birth of a Legend

MPC now stands for Music Production Center. However, the concept of these workstations has endured. A musical instrument that combines sampling with a sequencer. The American Roger Linn developed the MPC-60 with AKAI PROFESSIONAL . The model was released on December 8, 1988 and cost $5,000. Further developments followed with the MPC-60 MKII and the MPC-3000 in 1994. Producers and DJs swore by the unmistakable sound and the unique MPC groove. The devices became a myth. Roger Linn ended his collaboration with AKAI PROFESSIONAL. In 1997 the MPC-2000 (XL) came onto the market, followed by the MPC-1000, the 2500 and the flagship MPC-4000. In order to ensure a similar workflow for computer-based music productions, AKAI PROFESSIONAL expanded its product range with controllers such as MPD 16, MPD 24, MPK 49, APC40, and MPD218 MPD232.

The Music Production Center today

The current models in the MPC series have names like Touch, Studio Black, One, Live and X. They all combine the legendary 16 pads for recording beats and melodies. The devices now also have touch-sensitive displays. Slicing and editing is so easy! Depending on the size, the standalone machines have variable basic sounds and different control options as well as connections.

What products does AKAI PROFESSIONAL offer?

Whether as a mini or full-size button version, the keyboard controllers selection is large.
