Akai MPC Live 2 Gold
Overview
For the music makers who never want to miss an inspirational moment, meet MPC Live II Gold. This self-contained, battery powered production unit delivers the full MPC experience, anywhere. MPC Live II Gold is the first MPC with a built-in stereo monitoring system. Designed from the ground up, this dual tweeter-woofer system delivers impeccable clarity to keep your ideas flowing through the creative process. Hear every detail of your production - rumbling 808s, the unmistakable punch of kick drums, thunderous bass lines, and a crisp, silky high end. Need a second perspective? Turn off the built-in monitors, hook up your studio speakers and you’re set.
Under the hood, MPC Live II Gold includes the same multi-core processor as the MPC X, with every mainstay you demand from a modern MPC. Take complete command of your production with Akai Professional’s iconic 16-pad format. Sequence, edit and chop samples on the bright 7-inch touch screen colour display. Shape your ideas with four capacitive-touch knobs and dive into all critical functions with an arsenal of dedicated buttons meticulously arranged for the ultimate production workflow. Backed by a super-intuitive UI, and packed with everything you demand for professional production, MPC Live II Gold singularly roots your focus on creativity.
As a producer, you demand versatility. MPC Live II Gold primes you for any situation. With three stereo 1⁄4-inch TRS outputs (6 mono), plus phono/line level inputs, USB, MIDI, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and four TRS CV/Gate outputs, it’s simple to connect, control and get the best out of all your studio gear. Command your modular rig on stage and usher in a new direction to your performance; grab a patch cable and tap into any studio rack gear with ease; hook up your USB MIDI controllers, pick a synth engine and dive into a world of immersive, expressive performances; connect turntables and inject some old school sampling flavour into your production. Your day-to-day producer activities may mean you go from different studio spaces to stage and back - whatever your day demands, you can count on MPC Live II Gold to deliver the goods.
