★The most powerful standalone hardware sampler★

A powerful studio centerpiece, the Akai Professional MPC XL delivers unparalleled technology, speed, and inputs and outputs for beatmaking and music production, enabling producers to maximize their studio capabilities.

The perfect studio centerpiece: The flagship of all standalone music production systems, the MPC XL is your all-in-one studio hub. Produce a full album, operate external hardware, and control your entire studio setup—all with this powerful piece of equipment—no computer required.

Powerful Processing Powered by a new second-generation 8-core processor and 16GB of RAM, MPC XL delivers four times the processing speed of the original MPC. Load multiple plug-in instruments, run complex sessions, and navigate your projects without interruption.

■ Evolution that realizes creative expression
Equipped with 3D sensing technology, the MPCe pads bring a new dimension of expression to beatmaking and production. Each pad features four sections, allowing for X/Y control, sound morphing, looping, layering, and modulation for a dynamic playing experience like never before.

■Precise control for any workflow
The 10.1-inch HD multi-gesture touchscreen with tilt functionality makes it easy to view and access every element of your song. MPC XL features 16 Q-Link knobs, each with its own OLED display, providing clear visual feedback for mixing, editing, and sound design. XL channel commands feature dedicated OLEDs and knobs for instant access to levels, sends, outputs, and recording parameters for fast and intuitive operation. The assignable performance touch strip provides tactile control of FX, note repeat, faders, and more.

Advanced Sequencing Tools The newly equipped 16 dedicated RGB step sequencer buttons with functions let you build, edit, and play your ideas. Control your entire workflow, including creating complex beats, sequencing external synths, and arranging clips.

Flexible Audio Interface Connectivity Connect to your entire studio with a professional-grade audio interface: dual XLR/TRS combo inputs with mic preamps and phantom power, a dedicated instrument input for guitar or keyboard, eight individual line outputs for routing and mixing, and eight stereo 1/8-inch CV/Gate outputs for a total of 16 channels of CV. USB-C provides a 24-channel audio interface, 32 channels of MIDI, and seamless sampling from smart devices.

■Storage and setup that grows with you
A 256GB internal SSD provides ample space for projects, samples, plug-in instruments, and presets. One-to-one function buttons provide instant access to all major MPC XL features, no computer required, so you can focus on creating, not digging through menus.
