Akai MPK25 Video Demo

http://www.pmtonline.co.uk/akai-mpk22... Based closely on Akai's MPK49, the MPK25 is the small, portable controller keyboard for producers and performers who need detailed control over multiple parameters within their software via a versitile, user friendly interface.

Featuring 24 semi-weighted keys (with aftertouch) the MPK25 also includes 12 genuine, velocity/pressure sensitive MPC drum pads...the same pads that have made the Akai MPC machines a favourite with dance and hip-hop producers for so many years, offering the classic MPC Note Repeat function and Swing parameters.

In addition to the high quality keyboard and drum trigger pads, the MPK25 also features 2 banks of 12 assignable Q-link and 2 banks of 4 assignable buttons. The Akai MPK25 Performance Controller also has a built in arpeggiator allowing you to create riffs quickly and easily. Tap Tempo and time-division buttons allow for real-time control of the note repeat and arpeggio clock speeds. On top of all this, the MPK also offers pitchbend and modulation wheels, MMC/MIDI Start Stop transport buttons and a backlit screen.

The Akai MPK25 connects to your PC or Mac via either a standard USB cable or a MIDI interface. All of the control knobs, pads, faders, buttons and wheels are fully assignable and are compatible with some of the more popular software packages on the market...the Akai MPK25 really is a one of the most comprehensive, compact controller keyboards out there, as versatile on stage as it is in the studio...and you get all of this at an amazing price.

a price differential of nearly £100 youd perhaps be wise to consider the main differences between the Akai MPK25 and the MPK49. The MPK25 loses the faders and nearly half the keyboard, but retains some of the more important features such as the MPC pads, rotary knobs, transport panel and the performance controls. The Akai MPK25 actually has 16 rotary knobs, double the amount that the MPK49 has and yet still has the preset select function but it saves yet more costs by cutting out triplet quantization on the time division section. The Akai MPK25 is certainly suited to someone who doesn't require those additional features that the MPK49 has to offer and a DJ who would only ever confine themselves to two octaves would find this the perfect partner to the Akai APC40. Still a welcome addition to a studio setup, the MPK25 is a definite money saver and is worth the money saved if the extras are not required. Come down and see the Akai MPK25 now available at PMT.
