Akai Professional MPC One+ groovebox

General

Since the introduction of the first model in the late eighties, AKAI's MPC Series controllers have been the go-to bit of kit for countless musicians, producers and other beat-makers. In the fresh red form of the MPC One+, AKAI have once again reworked their winning-formula to bring it bang up-to-date.

Features of the AKAI Professional MPC One+

As a standalone console, the MPC One+ can be used to produce music without a laptop or computer which also helps to do away with everyday distractions like social media, keeping you focussed on what's most important: the music. To make producing as streamlined as possible, AKAI have built-in a Wi-Fi receiver, Bluetooth MIDI, and no less than 16 gigabytes of memory for saving projects - a sweet upgrade since, in case you didn't know, the standard MPC One only comes with a 2GB storage capacity.

Built-In DAW and Full Support for External Gear

The extra-large touch display of the MPC One+ is not only extra-intuitive, but provides access to a built-in DAW which, along with the various pressure-and-velocity-sensitive pads, buttons and controls, gives you everything you need need to whip up beats in a flash. What's more, you're looking at a USB port and SD card slot as well as CV/gate, DIN-MIDI and USB-MIDI ports, so there are more than enough ways to load tracks and hook up external gear as needed.
