The Akai MPD26 USB/MIDI controller gives you the feel of authentic MPC pads for electronic music producers and DJs who demand the best. 16 pressure- and velocity-sensitive pads are at the heart of this controller, with four sounds selectable on each pad for a total of 64 at your fingertips. Six Q-Link faders and and six more Q-Link 360 rotary controls are assignable to nearly all software parameters, letting you customize the MPD26 to your liking, and signature MPC Swing is selectable to turn grid-locked sequences into human-feeling grooves.
