The MPK mini keyboard is designed for entering notes and phrases into a computer, while also capturing performance dynamics thanks to its velocity-sensitive keys and pads. The MPK mini also has a built-in arpeggiator to create sparkling, staccato leads and driving bass lines in a variety of time signatures and patterns.
MPK mini’s eight backlit, velocity-sensitive pads help firing one-shot samples and sequencing drum patterns. The pads can send note information, MIDI CCs, or even program changes. Additionally, the MPK mini has eight assignable Q-Link knobs to control virtually any software parameter.
MPK mini is plug-and-play with Mac or PC and requires no software driver installation or wall power for operation. The included software editor quickly maps MPK mini’s controls as well.
Pricing & Availability
The MPK mini is available now from musical instrument and professional audio retailers. MPK mini has a U.S. Retail Price of $199.00 and an estimated street price of $99.00.
