First of all, I am more of a guitarist, geeky style. I fell for the MPC ONE and it blew me away. Not because of the price but because of the potential. Lots of creativity unlocked. Great

Infinite possibilities

Very intuitive, you get familiar very quickly with

Experienced with DAW, I had a bit of trouble understanding the workflow. However, it's worth persisting because this machine can do a lot of things. At this time, I am far from mastering it... Purchased for the standalone aspect, a bit disappointed by the fact that you have to resort to the computer and the MPC software (which is annoying because it refuses to install if you don't have the latest Apple OS grrr) for some installations and especially to export expansions to the SD card. Apart from that, it's a joy, the sampling quality is top-notch and the whole thing is very fun.

Ho !!!!!! La machine terrible

A universe I knew 20 years ago with the mpc 2000. This machine is much more complex than the one I mentioned. The handling for a novice could take time or I think it is interesting to read the latest manual (in English) online on the akai pro site. Otherwise, it is interesting to experiment with each function by making a project which would allow exploring it. A machine that is very complete in the end but should be simplified on the features it offers. Too bad it does not have a probability function on midi event triggers. The change of sample position point could be simplified. The price-quality ratio is unbeatable to this day for a touchscreen machine with features worthy of a Stan. Updates give significant maturity to the one who would want to be autonomous. Ps, the sound banks are of very good quality but be creative which was the essence of the mpc by creating your own drum kits, synths (auto sampler), presets etc... The mpc universe is to be explored by taking your time!

Just need to get the hang of it :-)

It's AKAI, it's perfect!

Au top ...la machine qui me manquais

I love this little MPC, you can really do a lot with it, and it quickly finds its place in the home studio
