The X is a standalone MPC featuring a beautiful, full color, adjustable 10.1” multi-touch screen, 16 amazingly responsive, velocity- and pressure-sensitive RGB pads and 16 gigs of internal storage. In creating the new MPC X, we’ve learned 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.

“Master” is now “Main” or “Global”: All instances in the MPC that refer to the “Master” are now referred to as” GLOBAL” or” MAIN”.The history of modern music is intrinsically linked to the Akai Professional MPC line.

16 Level Update: Users can now use 16 Level functionality on Plugin, Keygroup, and MIDI tracks allowing for fine tuning of velocity levels for melodic tracks.

Pad Perform Updates: Pad Perform “off” has now been renamed to “Custom” and allows for user note maps.
