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. If sampling and beatmaking is your world, Akai’s legacy and present-day gear are second to none.
MPC, short for Music Production Centre, refers to a range of hands-on production instruments built around sampling, sequencing and beat-making. Originally developed to bring studio-style workflows into a single unit, MPCs combine pads, sequencing, sound shaping and performance control in one focused system. If you enjoy building tracks from rhythm up, working with samples, and creating music in a tactile, intuitive way, MPC offers a powerful centrepiece for modern music production.
Drum covers electronic drum machines and rhythm instruments used to create beats, patterns, and percussive sequences. These instruments allow sounds to be programmed, synthesised, sampled, and triggered in real time, often with step sequencers, performance pads, and hands-on controls. They are central to electronic music production and live performance, providing tight timing, repeatable grooves, and creative control over rhythm, dynamics, and texture.
A drum machine is an electronic instrument designed to create and sequence rhythmic patterns and percussion sounds. It is used to program beats, build grooves, and perform rhythms with precise timing and hands-on control. For example, a drum machine might be used to create a repeating rhythm for a live set or to sketch the foundation of a track before adding melodic and harmonic elements.
