Released after an extensive beta testing period, MPC 2.0 is compatible with Mac and PC, works either alone as your main DAW or integrates seamlessly into your DAW of choice as a VST, AU, AAX plug-in. Well, Akai stepped in with a risky though quite laudable deal.Akai Professional has announced the official release of MPC 2.0.
The fact that they’re standalones is enough reason, but the thing is whether this feature is going to adapt in the world of computerized music control which no one seems to complain too much about. “MPC Live is the most powerful MPC we’ve made to date and yet it’s portable enough to take anywhere.” MPC Live integrates with MPC Software 2.0 as well and hits the shelves with the price of $1199 in the first quarter of 2017. It truly represents a huge step forward in the product category,” said Dan Gill. The rear panel carries MIDI 2 ins/2 outs, 2 audio ins (RCA and balanced 6.3 mm socket) + 6 outs (6.3 mm). It’s filled with a multicore processor, 2 GB RAM, 16 GB of on-board storage (memory can be expanded with an SD card).
It contains its own power supply, 7 inch multi-sensory display, 16 touch-sensitive pads, 4 “Q-Link” controls and a big master encoder. MPC Live is a compact and budget alternative. What we have now is the most powerful MPC production experience ever.” MPC X will ship in the first quarter of 2017 priced at $1999. But we turned the idea on its head and incorporated the best of what a modern touch-screen interface can offer. MPC X provides several commutation types: MIDI 2 ins/4 outs, an impressive amount of audio ins/outs and 8 CV/Gate outs.Īkai Professional manager Dan Gill said, “In creating the concept for the MPC X we wanted to preserve the classic MPC feel and workflow that people love. The point is that the sensor display will bring MPC X into the heart of any studio working process. There are menu buttons, main encoder and 16 sensor knobs with OLED displays. The device carries a 10.1 inch multi-sensory display and 16 touch-sensitive pads. So flagship MPC X sports multicore processor and at the same time does its best with the MPC Software 2.0 which serves as a plugin or can be put in practice on its own. Considering the fact that no Standalone Music Production Center works with OS, these two models comprise own processors and can function both as a standalone and a controller (when operating with a conforming software).
