Modern Akai still make powerful MPC units that combine standalone hardware with DAW integration. They also produce popular controllers like the MPK series.

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.

MPC

MPC is a standalone music production instrument that combines sampling, sequencing, and performance control in a single unit, originally developed by Akai. It is used to record and manipulate samples, program beats, and build full arrangements using pads, a sequencer, and onboard processing. For example, an MPC might be used to sample drum hits and musical phrases, sequence them into a rhythm, and layer additional parts to create a complete track without needing a computer.

Synthesiser

A synthesiser is an electronic instrument used to generate and shape sound using oscillators, filters, envelopes, and modulation. It is used to create basses, leads, pads, and evolving textures for music production and performance. For example, a synthesiser might be used to design a pulsing bass line that drives a track or a layered pad sound that adds depth and movement to a composition.
