Classic MPC beat-making, but built for wherever inspiration hits. The Akai MPC Sample is a compact, battery-powered sampler that lets you record, chop and flip sounds into full beats without touching a computer. The Akai MPC Sample brings the legendary MPC workflow into a smaller, grab-and-go format designed for modern producers. With velocity-sensitive pads, built-in sampling tools and a fast, intuitive workflow, it’s made for turning random sounds into finished grooves in minutes. The legendary MPC workflow For decades, MPC samplers have been at the centre of beat-making, letting producers sample sounds, assign them to pads and build rhythms by playing them live. The MPC Sample keeps that core idea intact — record a sound, chop it up, trigger it from the pads and start building grooves immediately. It’s simple, hands-on and incredibly addictive. Record, chop and flip sounds instantly Sampling is the heart of the MPC Sample. You can record audio directly using the built-in microphone, external inputs or import samples via USB-C or microSD, then slice and rearrange them into something completely new. Dedicated controls for chopping, muting and looping make the process quick and musical, so you spend less time navigating menus and more time making beats. Portable beat-making anywhere Unlike larger MPC workstations, the MPC Sample is designed to travel. It features a rechargeable battery, built-in speaker and compact design, making it easy to sketch ideas wherever inspiration strikes. Throw it in a backpack and start building beats on the couch, in the studio, on a train or backstage before a gig. Sequencing and creative effects Once your samples are loaded, the MPC Sample’s sequencer lets you build full patterns and arrangements. Real-time time-stretching, pitch control and performance effects help you shape sounds and add movement to your beats without needing external gear. From chopped drum breaks to melodic loops and vocal flips, the workflow is built for experimentation. Connectivity and storage Despite its portable size, the MPC Sample includes the connections you need to integrate with your setup: Stereo audio input and output MIDI input and output USB-C connectivity MicroSD storage Headphone output It works just as well as a standalone beat machine as it does alongside other hardware or a DAW.
