If at first this puts you off, don’t let it! When a computer is devoted to doing one thing, it tends to do that thing very well, and the MPC X is no exception. It’s almost as if the MPC X is a tablet computer inside of a music-making box. The MPC X is chock full of features, the most distinguishing of which is the large, 10.1-inch touchscreen that the unit is built around. Whether your work takes place in the studio or on stage, will the MPC X and MPC Live deliver for your needs? Let’s look a little closer and find out what they’re all about. With MPC X and MPC Live, not only have Akai conquered the hardware/software divide, they have done so in style, and with two machines that should appeal to producers and musicians from all walks of life. Though the Studio series may not have been the right fit for me then, Akai’s latest offerings have begun to bring most of my dreams for a throughly modern MPC to life. When Akai introduced the MPC Studio series a few years ago, I was put off by the idea of using an MPC away from my computer, only to integrate it back into my Ableton Live-based workflow later on. With the MPC X (above) and the MPC Live, Akai offers music makers an easy way to transition their work between hardware and software platforms.
