Capable of running natively on the MPC X in standalone mode, MPC 2.0 can also be run from a Mac or PC with the X tethered to a computer. Powering the mighty X is MPC 2.0 ä, Akai Professional’s new update to the MPC software. Rounding out the controls are dedicated menu buttons, a large master encoder knob and 16 touch-sensitive 360º assignable pots (Q-Links) with OLED displays, perfect for precisely automating individual parameters and delivering expressively nuanced recordings. To make it a truly untethered, computer-free experience, the X also features two USB slots that can be used for MIDI controller connectivity. The X is a standalone MPC featuring a beautiful, full color 10.1” multi-touch screen, 16 amazingly responsive, velocity and pressure sensitive RGB pads and packs 16 gigs of internal storage. In creating the new MPC X, we’ve taken the lessons from every MPC that preceded it to engineer a production centerpiece truly fit to be the Music Production Center of the future.

Countless instruments have attempted to replicate the design, workflow and celebrated swing of the Music Production Center. We’ve created machines that have spawned new genres and advanced existing ones. The history of modern music is intrinsically linked to the Akai Professional MPC line.
