Akai Professional MPC Live III | Overview

The 3rd generation of the MPC Live

With the MPC Live III, Akai Professional presents the most powerful MPC ever. It remains true to the convincing concept as a standalone device with MIDI sequencer, sampler, synthesizer and groovebox and goes one step further in terms of technology and functionality. With the features offered, the MPC Live III is a flexible and cross-genre music production center for beatmakers, producers and live performers. Above all, the MPC Live III is designed for instant playability, endless experimentation and precise recording to create professional beats anytime, anywhere. The integrated rechargeable battery and Stereo speaker allow you to make music wherever you are. Whether on the couch, on the park bench or in the tour bus, the MPC Live III is ready to go anywhere!

Improved operation and more CPU power

The third Generation of the MPC Live offers a whole range of innovations that are noticeable in the CPU performance and operation. Thanks to the new 8-core CPU and 8 GB RAM, the Live III boasts four times the performance of the MPC Live II. There are also sensitive MPCe pads with 3D sensors, 16 step buttons for the sequencer, a freely assignable touch strip controller and an integrated microphone. The microphone can be used to eg. The microphone can be used to record ambient noises, self-created sounds and, of course, vocals and incorporate them into the arrangement. Based on the revised and improved MPC3 OS, the MPC Live III impresses with its powerful workflow and extended functions. Another highlight is the Clip Launcher, which provides improved song arranging and performances at the touch of a button.

High-resolution touchscreen

The large 7" multi-touch display shows everything related to the current action in razor-sharp image quality. Here you can change parameters, select instruments and samples, edit the sequencer, operate the clip matrix, set effects and much more. The majority of all operating steps are intuitive.

Touch-sensitive MPCe pads

The third Generation of the MPC Live is equipped with 16 extremely responsive MPCe pads with 3D sensors. They are visually striking with four right angles around each pad. These pads offer sensitive control that goes beyond Aftertouch and enables X/Y control of one-shot layers, seamless sample blending and dynamic note repetition and articulation. This makes playing/triggering and expressive control literally possible with the swipe of a finger. Of course, a MIDI/USB master keyboard can also be connected to play notes. MPC-typical basic functions such as 8 banks, note repeat, full Level or 16 levels

Straight into the grid

There are 16 small buttons above the display and the pads , which are primarily intended for quickly entering rhythms in TR grid style. The Set button is used to access 16 additional functions or menu pages, making the sequencer even more convenient to use.

Performance Ribbon Controller

The touch strip controller can be configured as desired. For example, you can use it to dynamically control the rhythmic retrigger rate of drums and notes, change the loop timing or modulate various parameters.

CPU, RAM & memory capacity

Thanks to the powerful 8-core CPU, the MPC Live III has four times the performance of the MPC Live II. Together with the increased RAM, which is now 8 GB, this MPC has enough power for 256 stereo voices, 64-voice polyphony for drum tracks, STEM PRO separation, 32 plug-in tracks, 16 audio tracks, up to 16 simultaneous vocal harmonizer instances and much more. This means that even larger arrangements can be created without this all-rounder running out of steam.
The MPC Live III has an internal memory capacity of 128 GB ex works; there is also plenty of Sample Content already included in the memory! The size of the working memory is 8 GB RAM. Additional samples can be stored on an SD card (medium sold separately). External hard disks can also be connected to the two USB-A ports. There is also a flap on the underside of the device under which an additional SSD hard disk can be installed.

Plug-in synthesizers

The MPC Live III includes the MPC Instrument Collection with eight powerful plug-in synthesizers that can be used as fully-fledged instruments directly in the MPC. Thousands of sounds provide a solid foundation for creative expression across all genres.

TubeSynth emulates the sound of classic analog polysynths with Analog-Modeling technology
Bassline emulates the sound of classic Vintage mono synthesizers.
Electric emulates the sound of classic electric pianos.
Drumsynth 8 synthesis models for your own drum sounds
AIR Hype over 1500 inspiring sounds of different genres and synthesis forms
AIR Mellotron emulates the band-based cult instrument Mellotron
AIR Solina emulates the 70s String synthesizer ARP Solina String Ensemble
WayOutWare Odyssey emulates the iconic analog synthesizer ARP Odyssey

Connections for studio...

The rear of the MPC Live III is pleasingly versatile. MIDI is communicated via the double In/Out sockets(32 MIDI channels bidirectional) and USB. This is perfect for anyone who wants to operate additional equipment such as a rack synthesizer or a DAW with the MPC Live III. In its capacity as a sampler, audio inputs are a must! Two audio inputs with XLR combo jack and microphone preamp as well as a stereo phono input for sampling directly from the turntable, together with the high-quality 24-bit converters, bring every signal to the desired level. For signal output, there is a stereo output and four freely assignable individual outputs.

Eurorack...

Eight configurable CV/Gate outputs, which are available as dual TRS connectors, enable the connection between the MPC Live III and a modular system. Other synthesizers with CV/Gate inputs can also be controlled by the MPC Live III in this way.

and computer/DAW

The two USB-A ports are ideal for MIDI controllers such as a master keyboard or a fader box or even external hard disks. The USB-C port offers a whole range of exciting additional functions that go beyond data exchange between the computer and MPC Live III. For example, you can play plugins in the computer or DAW with the sequencer and pads. The integrated 24 bit / 96 kHz audio interface transports 24 channels to the DAW. It is also possible to sample directly from a smartphone or tablet via USB-C! Sampling something directly from a YouTube video or a synth app and integrating it into the current project has never been easier.
