Akai, a Japanese company, made their biggest impact with the MPC series of samplers. The MPC revolutionised hip hop, R&B, and beat-driven music. Modern Akai still make powerful MPC units that combine standalone hardware with DAW integration. They also produce popular controllers like the MPK series.

MIDI

MIDI is a digital control standard used to transmit performance and control data between electronic instruments, computers, and hardware devices. It carries information such as note data, velocity, timing, and parameter changes rather than audio, allowing instruments and software to communicate, stay in sync, and control each other. MIDI is fundamental to modern music production, sequencing, and live performance setups.

Production

Production is the process of creating, arranging, and shaping music using electronic instruments, recording tools, and software. It involves sound design, sequencing, recording, editing, and mixing to turn musical ideas into finished tracks. For example, production might involve building a beat with a drum machine, layering synth parts, refining sounds, and arranging them into a complete piece ready for release or performance.
