The MPK Mini Plus II keeps going: the same unit that maps itself to Ableton Live, Logic Pro, FL Studio, Cubase or MPC 3 can also sequence a Eurorack voice over CV\/Gate or drive a desktop synth over 5-pin MIDI. The full-color display shows parameters as you turn the eight 360° encoders, so you spend less time looking at the laptop, and the chord and generative modes are there when an idea needs a push rather than another hour of programming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eQuick Specs\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKeys:\u003c\/strong\u003e 37 mini keys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePads:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 velocity and pressure-sensitive RGB backlit MPC pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eControls:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 assignable 360° knobs, 1 push encoder, pitch bend and modulation wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDisplay:\u003c\/strong\u003e 160 × 80 full-color LCD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnections:\u003c\/strong\u003e USB-C (power, MIDI in\/out), 5-pin MIDI DIN out, 3 × 3.5 mm TS CV\/Gate out (pitch, gate, mod), 6.35 mm TS sustain pedal input\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower:\u003c\/strong\u003e USB-C bus power, wall adapter or power bank (sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (W × D × H):\u003c\/strong\u003e 49.3 × 19.2 × 5.4 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.46 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIn the Box\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAkai Professional MPK Mini Plus II controller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoftware: MPC Beats, Ableton Live Lite 12, Native Instruments Komplete Select (Akai Edition), Studio Instrument Collection (1,000+ sounds from AIR Music Technology, Moog Music and Akai Professional)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrial offers: 2 months of Splice, 30 days of Melodics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIdeal For\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMPC Standalone and MPC Desktop users who want a keyboard that speaks MPC natively\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProducers moving up from a 25-key MPK Mini\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHybrid setups mixing a DAW, desktop synths and modular gear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePre-mapped for MPC 3, Ableton Live, Logic Pro, FL Studio and Cubase, with full NKS support for Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003ePros \u0026amp; Cons\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e✅ Pros:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeep MPC integration on a compact, travel-friendly keyboard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCV\/Gate and 5-pin MIDI out for synths and modular gear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePressure-sensitive pads and full-color display at this size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRuns from USB-C bus power or a power bank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e⚠️ Cons:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMini keys are a compromise for players used to full-size keyboards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMIDI DIN is output only, so external gear cannot send MIDI back over 5-pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MPK Mini Plus II takes the 37-key Mini format from DAW companion to the centre of a small hybrid studio, with MPC control, CV\/Gate and creative tools in one desk-sized unit.
