Akai MPC One+ Standalone Sampler and Sequencer

The Upcoming Phase of Independent Music Creation

With the same robust multi-core CPU as the MPC X, the tiny, standalone Akai Professional MPC One+ offers a tonne of creative potential. Producers who adore the iconic Music Production Center will find everything they love about the MPC One+ in one easily transportable package, from beat programming and sampling to editing, mixing, effects, and more. Additionally, you can now map your most-used settings to touch-sensitive encoders, edit and chop samples with hand motions on the 7-inch touchscreen, and access the ultimate creative workspace with MPC2 software integration. To ensure you can always connect in any style, the MPC One+ also adds new Ableton Link features, a plethora of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity choices, and more.

The first workstation that was left alone

Getting your music in front of you is the core of the MPC experience—no computer is needed. Musicians are happy to see that the MPC One+ offers the full MPC experience, with 16 RGB-backlit, pressure- and velocity-sensitive pads for creating melodies, pounding out beats, and playing bass lines. You may set four of your most used parameters to the touch-sensitive rotary encoders, and the classic MPC note-entering tools—Note Repeat, Full Level, and 16 Levels—are all available. You won’t need to put down your MPC One+ from the moment you have an idea until the very end.

Contemporary possibilities for connectivity

The MPC One+ is ideal for use in conjunction with other synthesizers, drum machines, and other sound generators due to its strong sequencing and sampling capabilities. Regardless of how you prefer to compose music, it is ready to integrate into your creative process. You will find a bank of CV/Gate outputs for use with Eurorack modular synthesizers in addition to line-level inputs and outputs. For attaching synths, effects, and other MIDI-capable equipment, there is MIDI I/O available. There’s even a USB input, so you may use your preferred controller to compose music rather than the pads. You can always connect your USB class-compliant audio interface to the MPC One+ to record instrument and vocal tracks straight away; a DAW is not needed thanks to regular firmware updates!

Driven by MPC2

The creative possibilities are endless when utilizing Akai Professional’s MPC2 software with your MPC One+, whether it’s in controller mode or used solo. With 136-track sequencing (128 MIDI and 8 audio), real-time time stretching, clip launching, and extremely sophisticated MIDI editing, it’s the most sophisticated MPC engine to date. It may be used with your Mac or PC in controller mode as a VST, and for more sophisticated capabilities, you can also download the standalone version. When you choose to use your computer in the process, MPC software essentially offers you the most extensive experience possible when utilizing the MPC One+ standalone. Additionally, with the additional Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity possibilities, new plug-ins, firmware, software, and cutting-edge audio are constantly within easy reach!

Full of instruments, effects, loops, and samples

The MPC One+ comes with a tonne of amazing content right out of the box, and it has 16GB of internal storage (you can add your own samples via SD card or USB). A fresh drum sample and loop library with production-ready sounds made by sound designers like RawCutz, F9, Decap MSX Sound Design, and MVP Loops, among others, is worth giving a try. Along with the well-known AIR FX mixing and mastering processors, MPC One+ also includes the highly regarded instrument plug-ins Electric, Tubesynth, and Bassline from Akai Professional. More amazing features are constantly being developed thanks to frequent firmware upgrades. The most notable of these features are 14 amazing plug-ins, which include the recently released Air Vocal Insert Effect Suite, which includes effects like a vocal doubler, vocal harmonizer, and vocal tuner.
