AKAI Professional MINI MPK mini

MPK mini by Akai brings everything you need for spontaneous music-making – compact, versatile, and ready to use. With its 25 velocity-sensitive mini keys, the keyboard is perfect for quickly and intuitively playing melodies, basslines, or chords. The separate Octave Up/Down buttons expand your range across a full nine octaves, so your creativity knows no bounds.

A real highlight are the eight backlit MPC-style pads, which are not only extremely responsive but can also send MIDI CC or program change commands. Thanks to two pad banks, you have a total of 16 pads available – perfect for beats, loops, or samples. The built-in arpeggiator adds even more expressiveness to your playing, with adjustable resolution, range, and pattern – all easily controlled via the handy tap tempo function.

Eight freely assignable Q-Link controller knobs give you direct access to almost any parameter of your music software. Whether it's filter sweeps, effect controls, or volume adjustments – everything can be configured individually and controlled intuitively. With the Program Recall button, you can save and quickly recall up to four global configurations, greatly speeding up your workflow.

The sturdy housing in the proven Akai Professional design impresses with its robust construction, making it ideal for mobile use. Power is supplied simply via USB, with no additional drivers or power supplies needed. This way, you can quickly and easily set up the MPK mini on both Mac and PC – perfect for musicians who want to work flexibly and independently.
