Just to be clear this can actually sample from an external source right? Cause i think the mpx8 you could only load samples. Thanks.

HEY AMAZON, I think this question is attached to the wrong item. I'm seeing the question on item B00BDFQCXA, which is the Akai MPX8, which does not have the ability to sample sounds directly. (I physically have an MPX8 on the desk in front of me, along with its manual. It does NOT have any "inputs" at all. The only way to use custom samples on the MPX8 is to load them from an SD card.) The fact that several people have already answered to say that it CAN sample directly, suggests that the question and answers are talking about a different item - and when I click on the question to see all of the answers, it's showing a link to item B00J4JPUFS, which is the Akai MPX16, which is NOT the same item. I'm not sure how this question got attached to the wrong item, but shoing this question on the MPX8 product page is going to cause confusion, and might cause a customer to buy an MPX8 thinking it can sample, and then return it when they find that it can't.

can this be triggered using my Simmons SD 9 ?

Probably not, as your only option would be to go via midi. The MPX8 midi implementation is lacking (search for midi running status) and Akai never bothered to fix the firmware. What does that mean for you? That as soon as you start using it, it keeps missing notes: e.g. hit the SD9 3 times and the 3rd won't sound. The only thing MPX8 has going for it: cheap. But then, Akai *is* cheap.

Will this store sounds and voices that you can play while broadcasting

We use this MPX8 to play voice announcements of our standard 4 messages to operate our Outdoor Shooting Range. It plays back our recorded wav voice files with clarity throughout the our day. We plan to buy another as a backup.
