Up for sale is an Akai Professional MPK261 61-key USB MIDI keyboard controller in excellent condition. This is a serious full-size MIDI controller with a very flexible layout for studio production, beat making, virtual instruments, DAW control, and live performance.

The MPK261 gives you a strong hands-on workflow with 61 full-size semi-weighted keys with aftertouch, 16 MPC-style RGB pads, assignable knobs, faders, switches, transport controls, pitch and mod wheels, a built-in arpeggiator, and a backlit LCD screen. It is a great fit for producers, keyboard players, beat makers, composers, and anyone who wants more control than a compact MIDI keyboard can offer.

The 16 pads are great for drums, samples, clips, triggering loops, or controlling software instruments. The knobs, faders, and switches make it easy to control synth parameters, mixer levels, automation, effects, and DAW functions without constantly reaching for the mouse. The MPK261 also includes USB-MIDI along with traditional 5-pin MIDI input and output, making it useful for both computer-based setups and external hardware MIDI rigs.
