The Akai MPC XL Standalone Sampler & Sequencer is New and delivered to all areas of the UK using our roadie delivery service.

The Akai MPC XL is a next generation flagship standalone sampler and sequencer, built for producers who want serious power without a computer. With a blazing fast 8 core processor, 16 GB of RAM, deep MPC workflow integration and extensive I/O, it is a complete production hub for sample based beat makers, DAWless performers and modern studio setups alike.

Running MPC OS 3.7, MPC XL lets you load multiple plug in instruments, audio tracks and stems while keeping everything responsive and hands on. From finger drumming on the ultra expressive MPCe pads to detailed step sequencing and clip launching, every stage of your track can be created, arranged and performed directly from the hardware.

For live performers and DAWless jammers, MPC XL offers a tactile, performance first surface with dedicated buttons, Q Link knobs, a performance touch strip and a large multi gesture touchscreen. Extensive connectivity, including multiple audio inputs and outputs, USB C audio, and CV/Gate, makes it easy to integrate with outboard gear, modular rigs and existing studio systems.

Whether you are upgrading from a vintage MPC, moving away from the computer, or looking for a central brain for your studio, MPC XL delivers the power, speed and workflow to keep up with modern production demands.

Next Generation Standalone Power

At the heart of MPC XL is a next generation 8 core processor paired with 16 GB of RAM, delivering four times the processing power of previous MPC models. This means you can run more plug in instruments, more effects and more audio tracks at once, all while keeping latency low and the workflow smooth. With 256 GB of internal SSD storage, there is plenty of room for projects, samples and presets directly on the unit.

Expressive MPCe Pads and Performance Controls

MPC XL features ultra responsive MPCe pads with 3D sensing technology, giving you a more expressive finger drumming and performance experience. The assignable performance touch strip adds another layer of control for real time modulation, while 16 Q Link knobs with individual OLED displays provide instant visual feedback for key parameters. Dedicated surface buttons and XL channel strip controls keep your most used functions right under your fingers.

Deep Sequencing, Stems and Clip Workflows

With its dedicated step sequencer, 16 RGB function buttons and tight integration with MPC OS 3.7, MPC XL excels at building complex patterns and arrangements. Advanced sequencing, clip launching, professional stem separation and high quality time stretching tools make it easy to rework samples, remix tracks and build full productions entirely in the box, without touching a computer.

Studio Grade Connectivity

MPC XL is designed to sit at the centre of your studio or live rig. Eight separate line outputs allow flexible routing to mixers and outboard processors, while dedicated instrument inputs and XLR/TRS combo inputs with mic preamps handle guitars, keyboards and microphones. USB C connectivity provides up to 24 channels of audio I/O and support for smart devices, and eight stereo 3.5 mm CV/Gate outputs give you up to 16 CV outs for controlling modular and analogue gear.
