NEW AKAI Professional MPC Key 37 Standalone Production Keyboard | Demo and Overview with Andy Mac

For nearly 40 years the MPC has been the center of every serious beat maker&studio. We checked out the new AKAI Professional MPC Key 37 at the iconic Stones Throw Studios in Los Angeles, California. MPC Key 37 combines the legendary 16 pad grid with a synth-styled 37 note keyboard with aftertouch; along with over 10 GB of legendary MPC samples, kits and instruments in a powerful, compact package. “It has everything you need for full-blown productions. It has 37 keys, MPC pads, thru to cutting-edge instruments,” says Andy Mac from AKAI Professional. “The great thing about the Key 37 is that it fits in any home studio and it gives you all of the power, without running a laptop, because it’s fully standalone.” Not only that, MPC Key 37 can also act as a hub for your studio outboard gear. Connect MIDI devices via USB or using the MIDI In/Out ports. You can also control your modular rigs with the 8 CV/Gate outs. Built-in Wi-Fi/Bluetooth allows for wireless synchronization with Ableton Link, Splice and MPC OS Updates.
