Ultra-portable MPC hardware gives you amazing hands-on control anywhere

The MPC Studio controller fits easily in your laptop case, letting you take your beat-creation studio anywhere. Its compact body houses 16 backlit velocity-sensitive pads, a touch strip controller, plus a full set of MPC controls, with visual response provided by a backlit LCD screen. In fact, the MPC Studio controller was built to give you access to every aspect of Akai\'s legendary MPC workflow, so you can create entire songs without ever looking at your computer screen.

Flexible sequencing and sampling software with classic MPC workflow

Akai bundled the MPC Studio with MPC2 music production software to make it a comprehensive music production system. This software music production environment gives you a 128-track sequencer and phenomenal sample-manipulation options with support for WAV, MP3, AIFF, REX, SND, and many other audio file formats. What\'s more, it supports every MPC sample and sequence ever created by any other MPC. But the software included with the MPC Studio lets you do much more than you could with a traditional MPC. For instance, you can load up your favorite VST plug-ins and use them right along with your samples. You can even use MPC Studio as a virtual instrument in your favorite DAW.
