Summary:
MPC Sample is Akai’s assault on the entry-level portable sampler market - bringing the essence of MPC into a small form factor with an affordable price.
It has a hi-res screen, built-in rechargeable battery, a small speaker, velocity and pressure sensitive pads, fun sampling and chopping modes, plenty of sample storage and memory, dozens of different effect types, and a workflow that’s easy, fast, and user-friendly
That said, unlike all the other MPCs sold today, where the hardware differs but the feature set is relatively similar, MPC Sample has a reduced feature set and a simpler workflow.
In this video, I take a look at it in detail, including how it’s different from other current MPCs and the competition. I also show you a little utility app I wrote that significantly expands the ways you can use it.
