Contents • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • History [ ] The original was the first result of an alliance between Akai and, to design products similar to those of Linn Electronics. He developed the functional design, including the panel layout and software/hardware specifications. He then created the software with a team of engineers. The hardware electronics were designed by English engineer David Cockerell and his team. Cockerell was a founding member of the synthesizer firm (co-creator of their famous along with ), and then worked for effects manufacturers. Akai then pioneered many processing techniques, such as looping and 'time stretch' to shorten or lengthen samples without affecting pitch and vice versa.

Intended to function as a powerful kind of, the MPC60 drew on design ideas from earlier machines, combining a powerful with the ability to one's own sounds. A major influence to Roger Linn's design was his love of rubber pads and how they could be pushed, prodded, and banged; this can be seen clearly in his designs especially from the MPC-60 onwards. Linn also had a passion for squares: thus, no round pads on the MPC Series. Later models feature increasingly powerful sampling, storage, interfacing and sound manipulation facilities, which broaden the use of instrument beyond just drum and rhythm tracks. Shortly after the MPC60's release, the MPC60-II was designed. Released in 1991, the MPC60-II offered most of the same features as the MPC60, with an added headphone output and a plastic housing replacing the original metal one.

In 1994, Akai released the MPC3000, which boasted 16-bit, 44 kHz sampling, 32-voice, and data transfer. Akai tried to save money by dropping Roger Linn, the brainchild behind the MPC, to whom they would have to pay royalties on future models. The company developed and released the MPC2000 without Linn in 1997. The MPC2000 came with 2 MB of, an optional board, and a 100,000 note 64-track. The MPC2000 was replaced by the MPC2000XL in 2000. The MPC2000XL added an improved 300,000 note sequencer, a 64-track mixer and and features.

Four limited edition models of the MPC2000XL were released. In 2002 Akai unveiled the MPC4000, the most powerful MPC ever made (higher bit depth and sample rate than the later 5000).

The MPC4000 featured 8 assignable outputs, a and CD-ROM drive. The MPC4000's memory could be expanded to up to 512 MB of, the largest amount on an MPC to date.

Only two years after the release of the MPC4000, Akai released the MPC1000, which was the smallest in the MPC product line at the time of its release. It was also the first MPC to utilize memory. Both the MPC2500 and the MPC500 were added to the Akai MPC series in 2006. The MPC2500 is a mid-range MPC with 8 assignable outputs and storage. Designed for portability, the MPC500 features 1 MIDI In/Out and storage, and can be powered by 6.

At NAMM in 2012 Akai unveiled a line of controllers named the MPC Renaissance, and MPC Studio which work with MPC Renaissance software on Mac or Windows computers. Additionally they unveiled the MPCFly, an iPad 2 and iPad (3rd generation) controller which runs on the iPad MPCFly app, available from the Apple app store. September, 2012 - The MPC Renaissance was publicly released. The Renaissance is the first hybrid MPC combining the computer with MPC hardware.

MPC Models [ ] The following MPC models are arranged in the order of their release date: MPC60 [ ]. Akai MPC60 (1988) The MPC60 is a 16 voice polyphonic 12-bit 40 kHz sampler / 99 track sequencer designed in large part by after Linn Electronics closed. It was similar to the. Akai released it in 1988. It had 750 kB memory standard, expandable to 1.5 MB. The sequencer is very flexible and powerful, famous both for its 'swing' setting, and its easy to use step programming.

It had 2 MIDI inputs / 4 MIDI outputs, allowing it to control up to 64 devices. The sequencer itself was offered as a separate product, known as the, also released in 1988. The MPC60-II was nearly identical to the MPC60, but it featured a headphone output, and a plastic case, instead of the metal case of the original.

Akai MPC2000XL SE 2 The MPC2000XL is similar to the MPC2000 but with many newer features; including four independent pad-bank keys, number of samples stored doubled to 256 on the XL, altering sounds to a different bit depth or sampling rate could be accomplished by resampling, was added along with other features. In 2004 the 2000XL-MCD version was released, which features a card reader as standard in place of the floppy drive or used in earlier models. There were 4 limited editions 2000XL SE MPCs created between 2000 and 2003. There were two versions of the SE 1, one with an improved, compatible with growing number of sound libraries and one with aesthetic changes. The Limited Edition SE 2 and SE 3 also had only aesthetic changes. Akai MPC4000 Released in 2002, the MPC4000 was intended by Akai as a 'top-of-the-range' flagship product. Not only was it the most fully featured MPC product yet (building on the MPC60, 3000 and 2000XL), but it also incorporated the sampling engine from the latest model in Akai standalone sampler range, the Z8.

At the end of 2003 Akai revealed the MPC4000BL Plus which substituted the original white model in 2004. The upgraded version featured some extra hardware extensions and came in a blue casing. It was discontinued between 2006 and 2007. The MPC4000 was replaced by the MPC5000 in spring 2008. Features • 16 velocity- and pressure-sensitive pads • 2 MIDI inputs, 4 MIDI outputs • 96 kHz 24bit sampling • 16 MB sampling memory, upgradeable to 512 MB • bays for installation of internal hard disk drive and CD-ROM drive.

Akai MPC2500 The MPC2500 is the mid-range of the Akai line of MPCs. It has a 100,000 note, 64 track mixer with 64 assignable channels. It has 16 MB of standard and can be upgraded up to 128 MB of with the AKAI EXM128 stick of RAM. It contains a port for computer connectivity.

It contains a slot for storage of samples, and can be upgraded with a variety of. The MPC2500 contains 2 inputs and 4 outputs. The MP2500 also has the feature, which can chop a sample into as many as 64 pieces.

A CD-R/DVD drive can be added for burning and reading capabilities. Also comes with a 128 MB compact flash card with sound kits. MPC2500 was discontinued in 2009. Features • port (Mass Storage Class) • card reader • 16 velocity-sensitive pads • 2 inputs, 4 outputs • 100,000 note, 64-track, MIDI sequencer • 16 MB sampling memory (upgradeable to 128 MB) • standard effects include: Chorus, Flanger, Bit grunger, 4 band EQ, Compressor, Phase shifter, Tremolo, Flying Pan, Reverb, and Delay. • 8 assignable outputs and 1 stereo output. • two assignable Q-link sliders and knobs.

• 240 x 64 hinged backlight LCD screen. • / drive CD-M25 (optional) • JJOS compatible MPC1000 [ ]. Akai MPC1000BK The MPC1000 is a 64-track sampler/sequencer. It comes with 16 MB sample memory as standard, and can be expanded to 128 MB.

It supports a sampling rate of 44.1 kHz, in stereo or mono. Its features include a port, an internal CompactFlash card reader, two inputs and outputs, and effects and multiple analog outputs as standard. Its sequencer's resolution is 96 ppq. There have been many reported problems with the pad sensors in the 1000. In the original MPC1000 sensors, a thin square of carbon-impregnated rubber is glued at each corner above a copper coil.

When a pad is depressed, this carbon-impregnated rubber is compressed against the copper coil, allowing current to pass through. This moving part can wear out, as the carbon-impregnated rubber sloughs away from the glue and eventually breaks loose. In 2007, Akai offered a fix for this issue, retailing at 180 USD. The pad sensors design returned to the design of the pad sensors in previous models.

This upgrade has been seen to be pre-installed on the MPC1000BK-N and some versions of the MPC1000BK, not the MPC1000 (blue outer casing). Before this change, a MPC1000 user designed, built and sold kits of a pad fix under the name 'Nym.' Nym's kit is no longer available. By comparison, the more recent Akai pad fix uses better sensor technology (Sensitronic FSRs). Features • USB port (Mass Storage Class) • CompactFlash card reader • 16 velocity-sensitive pads • 4 pad bank keys • 2 MIDI inputs, 2 MIDI outputs • 100,000 note capacity 64-track sequencer • 16 MB sampling memory (upgradeable to 128 MB) • Effects as standard • Multiple analog outputs as standard • and (added in OS 2.0) • JJOS compatible MPC500 [ ]. Akai MPC500 The MPC500 is the smallest MPC ever made and is the first truly portable MPC created.

It can be run on 6 but also can be run on a 12V DC plug. It combines a 48-track sequencer and a 32-voice stereo digital sampler.

The MPC500 is the first MPC that only has 12 velocity-sensitive rubber pads. It comes with 16 MB but can be upgraded up to 128 MB of. It has a slot for storage of samples. One major appeal of the MPC500 is the fact that you can take a project created on the MPC500 and transfer it to any current MPC with a reader.

The MPC500 has a port for computer connectivity. It has one stereo output, making it the only MPC currently in production that does not have assignable outputs. Features • USB port (Mass Storage Class) • card reader • 12 velocity-sensitive rubber pads • Stereo L+R in & out • 1 in and 1 out • 4 pad banks • 2 x 16 character screen with back light • Standard effects include: Chorus, Flanger, Bit grunger, 4 band EQ, Compressor, Phase shifter, Tremolo, Flying pan, Reverb, and Delay.

• Approximately 4.5 hours of continuous use with LCD backlight on. • 465.5 sq CM footprint. Akai MPC5000 With a listed MSRP of $3,500, the MPC5000 was launched at the 2008 winter trade show. Its main innovations were an 8-track streaming, a 20-voice, 3-oscillator with, a new sequencing engine with 960 ppq resolution, pad and track muting and mixing, 64 continuous sample tracks. It also has a new (FX) engine with 4 FX buses where 2 FX are available per bus, and is considered by Akai to be its flagship MPC.

In addition, the MPC5000 features a 64-voice drum/ with 64MB memory, expandable up to 192MB. The display is 240x128, twice the size of the MPC2500 and MPC1000. Integrated 2.0 now supports stereo chops and Patched Phrases. It is also the first MPC to include Random and Cycle sample playback in addition to velocity Zone Play.

As on the MPC4000, a turntable is also included. The MPC5000 lacks some of the sample editing capabilities of the older MPC4000, and also some of the hardware specs are lower than the MPC4000 (max. 192 MB RAM vs. The 4000's 512 MB, and slightly smaller screen), but with an updated and more stable operating system.

OS 2.0 added many new features including the ability to load an entire folder without MPC programs, and many navigation shortcuts to boast. The MPC5000 using OS 2.0 now has the most features of any previous MPC to date, just above the MPC4000. MPC Renaissance [ ]. MPC Renaissance From the advertising brochure: The MPC Renaissance uses a PC or a Mac's memory. The MPC Renaissance is the first MPC to take the power from an external computer (with the dedicated 'MPC Software') and combine it with the regular tradition of the MPC.

The memory limitation depends on the connecting computer. The Renaissance takes on the look of the 3000, sharing its transport buttons, jog wheel, and arm rest. Its LCD has the same look as the MPCs 1000, 2500 and 5000r. The Renaissance is the first MPC to include back lit pads which change colors for velocity levels, sound groups, step edit, etc. Roger Linn Design. Retrieved 2007-07-04.
