Korg MPS-10

The Korg MPS-10 is a true powerhouse of creativity and versatility. With its appealing and compact design, it sets new standards in performance and adaptability. Its unique layout includes ten drum pads that stand out not only for their size but also for their captivating color-coded LED illumination. These pads provide you with immediate visual feedback, ensuring an intuitive and responsive playing experience.

The MPS-10 comes equipped with an impressive selection of sounds and kits that support and enrich your musical journey. The integrated 100 kits, expandable through an impressive library of over 2,350 pad instruments and 3,000 samples, cover a wide spectrum, from acoustic drums to electronic beats and special effects. The ability to add custom samples through the integrated audio and microphone inputs further expands your creative horizons. With a generous internal storage of 32 GB, you have ample space to create and manage your personal sound library.

One of the standout features of the MPS-10 is its innovative 4-track looper. This feature allows you to create complex and captivating live performances, with audio tracks synchronized and exportable as separate WAV files. The maximum polyphony of 48 voices supports even the most complex patterns, while the Smooth Sound Transition (SST) function ensures seamless and natural decay of sounds when switching between different kits.

In the realm of sound manipulation, the MPS-10 offers a wealth of options. With a master reverb, two insert effects, and an additional main effect per kit, it provides extensive opportunities for custom sound shaping. Furthermore, the four CC pads have unique functionality that allows you to control effect settings like filter cutoff in real-time by varying the strike position on the X-axis.

Designed for "on the road" use, the MPS-10 impresses with its sturdy, travel-friendly enclosure and pads made of durable material with excellent rebound properties. Additional inputs for triggers, footswitches, and an expression pedal offer added flexibility. With four audio outputs, a MIDI-OUT jack, and a generous color display that remains easily readable even in challenging lighting conditions, you have a highly functional and user-friendly companion by your side.

Furthermore, the MPS-10 offers a seamless sound design experience through its free editor software, which allows convenient editing and management of sounds and kits via USB. Whether for studio recordings, live performances, or creative sound experiments, the Korg MPS-10 is an excellent choice for those seeking a high-quality, flexible, and inspiring instrument.
