Review: Powerful MIDI controller for the technically savvy at a great price - Have just received this and it doesn’t disappoint. I picked up a Black Friday offer on a return to the price is to die for. I simply plugged the akai into my PC via usb after downloading MPC beats. After that it’s pretty simple. The akai mpk mini plus has lots of controls and is already synced with mpc beats so I can pretty much control the software via the keyboard, drum pads, knobs etc. Most of the YouTube videos cover different versions, unboxing or comparison so don’t cover the key info. Other DAWS seem to require subscription/purchase or configuration. If you understand and know what you want then it doesn’t have to be hard and CoPilot can provide good instructions. So after a few days, there are a few teething problems but it all works fine. videos available on YouTube by akai and inmusic (their other brand) are essential watching. These videos demonstrate how to register and download/install software. A key video is the hardware and midi mapping setup - initially missed this and couldn't get the transport buttons to work but it is explained clearly along with using mpc learn. there are several pieces of software available to provide a sound library which all work well with MPC beats,the default DAW. The additional software requires keys/subscriptions but there are plenty of free VSTs and plugins out there at no extra cost. Update: after using the mpk and mpc beats software for a couple of weeks I am very pleased with it and still learning. I have found a number of free VST packs and a site with free midi file downloads. I have also got myself an ewi. There are some great tutorials from akai on how to use mpc beats and it seems that the full mpc software is not much more complex and comes with more built in instruments and samples which is all good.
Review: Great tool for producers seeking portability without sacrificing functionality. - The AKAI MPK Mini Plus is a compact yet powerful 37-key USB MIDI keyboard controller, ideal for music producers and performers on the go. With 8 responsive MPC pads, it allows for dynamic beat-making and sample triggering. The extended key range offers more melodic flexibility compared to its smaller counterparts. It features intuitive controls like pitch/mod wheels and assignable knobs, making it versatile for DAW integration and real-time performance. Despite its small size, the build quality is solid, and it’s plug-and-play for easy setup.
