The heart of the MPD26 is its bank of 16 velocity and pressure-sensitive MPC pads, an Akai Professional exclusive. Its blend of intuitive MPC controls and technologies meshes with easy USB connectivity to bring the feel of classic beat making to the world of computer music production. It's perfect for producers, programmers, musicians and DJs. but if I could set up the MPD so that I could use it in a similar way, is it really worth the extra dollars for an MPC?Īkai pro wrote:The MPD26 is a MIDI-over-USB pad controller with genuine MPC pads. Was um-and-arring about it a bit, as I play in a live hip hop band I am attracted to the MPC as it is more of a raw live instrument, can be busted out and jammed with at any given time. Been putting my research into my first major hardware purchase (on this forum and elsewhere) and came very close to buying an MPC1000, but then someone pointed out to me that I could get an MPD26 for a fraction of the price (around $200), and (when hooked up to my laptop with say Ableton live) it could do pretty much everything I could with an MPC and more.
