Onboard CV/Gate outputs enable the analog control of modular gear such as classic synths and drum machines.

There are two additional 1/4” TRS line inputs on the back panel and the front panel also features two more 1/4” line inputs. The back panel is equipped with 2 XLR + 1/4” TRS inputs for recording microphones – including those needing 48V phantom power. The MPC X has a number of additional features that make it the most powerful standalone music production tool to date. The X has a high quality audio interface engineered for recording, sampling and transmitting pristine sound. Above each of those QLink pots is a high-resolution OLED display, detailing info for the individual parameter. For more expressive performances, there are 16 touch-sensitive 360-degree assignable pots-perfect for precisely automating individual QLink parameters. Powering the X is our stellar MPC 2.0 Software, which runs natively in standalone mode. To make it a truly untethered, computer-free experience, the X also features two USB slots that can be used for MIDI controller connectivity. The X is a standalone MPC with a full color, adjustable 10.1” multi-touch screen, 16 amazingly responsive, velocity- and pressure-sensitive RGB pads and 16 gigs of internal storage. Akai’s latest flagship MPC is the MPC X ( Amazon / zZsounds / eBay).
