Akai Akai Professional MPC Live II Controlller Gold Edition

Open Box perfect

The Akai Professional MPC Live II Controller Gold empowers music makers to create whenever and wherever creativity calls. This self-contained, battery-powered production unit delivers the renowned MPC experience on the go.

Immerse Yourself in High-Resolution Audio

MPC Live II is the first MPC with built-in stereo studio monitors. This dual tweeter-woofer system provides pristine clarity to fuel your creative flow. Hear the thunderous low end of 808s, the punchy thump of kick drums and a crisp high-end. Turn off the built-in monitors to connect studio speakers—you're in control.

The Iconic MPC Experience

Under the hood, MPC Live II packs the same multi-core processor as the MPC X. Take full command of your production with Akai Professional's legendary 16-pad format. Edit and chop samples on the 7" touchscreen display. Shape your sound with four capacitive-touch knobs and a layout of dedicated buttons. Backed by an intuitive interface and professional production tools, MPC Live II focuses on your creativity.

Built for Versatility

As a producer, you demand versatility. MPC Live II is primed for any situation. With stereo outputs, inputs, USB, MIDI, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and CV/Gate outputs, connect and control all your studio gear. Command your modular synth on stage, tap into rack gear, hook up MIDI controllers and synths, or connect turntables. Whatever your day demands, MPC Live II delivers.

The Center of Your Studio

MPC Live II commands all your external MIDI devices. New to MPC is MIDI Multi, transforming MPC into the ultimate MIDI sequencing studio centerpiece. Connect all your MIDI gear—USB keyboards, interfaces and USB to CV modules—and route everything simultaneously. Combine this with deep internal routing, routing to any MIDI device, multitrack recording and MPC Live II forms the heart of your production setup, unleashing the power of your gear.
