Akai MPK Mini Plus 37 Keys Keyboard MIDI Controller with 8 MPC Pads

The new MPK Mini Plus empowers musicians and Live Performers with full creative control delivering ultimate feel and expression. Along with next generation performance tools, advanced connectivity easily and fully unites all your favorite studio devices for complete and expanded hardware integration in a compact 3-octave design.

MPK Mini Plus features 37 keys with the Gen 2 Dynamic Keybed for expanded melodic and harmonic creation. 3 full octaves for two-handed chords, arpeggiation, solos and soundscapes on incredibly playable keys with a wider velocity range, delivering a world-class level of note dynamics and response.

For those creative moments or DAW-less jams sessions, the onboard polyphonic 2-track step/live Sequencer captures new melodic and drum patterns on the fly. 8 notes of polyphony per step, 16 notes per Drum Step and an onboard Arpeggiator offer endless creative possibilities.

8 velocity-sensitive RGB-backlit MPC Drum Pads are the backbone for not only playing dynamic beats and programming drums, but for also assigning program changes and triggering additional CC parameters.

Dial in effects with the 8 assignable 360-rotary knobs for every function including filters, automation, pan controls, and more. Add depth and dimension to your tracks by writing precise automation.
