Sampler & Recorder - Akai MPC Studio

Description Portable Controller with Unique MPC Workflow The Akai MPC Studio is the first portable MPC that connects directly to your computer. It combines the legendary MPC feel with the resources of modern computers in an ultra-compact housing. The full integration of the Akai MPC Studio with the MPC software brings you the unique workflow of an MPC and expands it with the nearly endless possibilities of current computers. The high-quality brushed aluminum casing is just 2.5 cm slim. Together with the flat knobs, the Akai MPC Studio fits easily into your laptop bag. The Akai MPC Studio features a backlit LCD, 16 MPC pads, and other typical features that enable complete productions directly from the hardware controller. Editing in the piano roll, as well as track and audio editing, can be conveniently done on the large computer screen. Since the Akai MPC Studio accesses the RAM and hard disk of the connected computer, it is only limited by the hardware you use. Like the larger MPC Renaissance, the Akai MPC Studio controls the new MPC software, which automatically recognizes the MPC being used. Within the computer, the Akai MPC Studio can leverage the capabilities of the DAW and other plugins in use. The MPC software can be used standalone or as a VST, AU, or RTAS plugin in current DAWs. The software is fully backward compatible with all MPCs: existing programs, sequences, and samples are recognized and played back directly. Additionally, VST plugins can be integrated within the software, significantly expanding editing possibilities. With additional features like a step sequencer with step programming, eight pad banks, and automatic parameter mapping, the Akai MPC Studio is also ideal for live use.
