Mpc Live Mpc X Comparison

The mpc world is buzzing this morning as details have now been official released for the two new standalone mpcs from akai mpc x and mpc live.

Mpc live mpc x comparison. I checked the mpc live and the mpc x and they are quite different. The mpc x is the new flagship mpc from akai. Mpc x weighs around 12 48 pounds whereas the mpc one only weighs 7 44 pounds. I just bought an mpc x last week.

Mpc live and mpc x now come pre mapped to ableton live for an instant performance and production setup. Here goes a lot of talking about the similarities and the di. The entry level mpc one the mid range mpc live ii and the now three year old studio workhorse the mpc x. Users have complete command over live s clip launching mixer and instrument macro controls wirelessly via wi fi network ableton link or by ethernet connection using a usb to ethernet adapter.

The main difference between the two is price and weight. Users have complete command over live s clip launching mixer and instrument macro controls wirelessly via wi fi network ableton link or by ethernet connection using a usb to ethernet adapter. Akai mpc x and mpc one have the same operating system and software. Mpc x costs a lot more than mpc one so those people who cannot buy a music production center can opt for this one.

The original mpc live is discontinued and replaced with the new mpc live ii meaning the current akai mpc line up now consists of three distinct mpcs. A lot of people has asked me to make a comparison video on maschine mk3 vs mpc live. I previously wrote about the new mpc one but at that time the mpc live ii was just a rumour. The price gap is huge so i managed to find an not very used one at a good price.

A complete stand alone daw. It s a fully standalone mpc with a huge 10 1 touchscreen display. Mpc live and mpc x now come pre mapped to ableton live for an instant performance and production setup.
