The joy of sampling vinyl is at the core of what made the classic MPC workflow legendary. For the vinyl junkies, two RCA phono inputs with RIAA preamp have been included to ensure the right levels are coming into the X directly from your turntable. Onboard CV/Gate outputs enable the analog control of modular gear such as classic synths and drum machines. The MPC X has a number of additional features that make it the most powerful standalone music production tool to date.

Additionally, sounds can be accessed and added to the library using the built-in SD Card slot or the USB thumb drive. Want to incorporate your own samples without tethering to a computer? The X features a 2.5” SATA drive connector providing more storage via external hard drive – SSD or HDD. Pre-installed with 10 gigs of world-class sounds, The Vault 2.0 features samples and kits from top-notch sound design companies including Capsun Audio, MVP Loops, CR2 Records, as well as our own radio-ready kits. The MPC has a well-earned reputation for sounds that hit hard and sound great, right out of the box.

Future versions will support Ableton Link. A number of major workflow enhancements have been added to 2.0, including: audio track recording, an improved time warp algorithm, refined Q-Link control, audio and MIDI drag and drop – all appearing on a new graphical interface. 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, 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 colour 10.1” multi-touch screen, 16 amazingly responsive, velocity and pressure sensitive RGB pads and packs 16 gigs of internal storage.
