The Akai MPK Mini Play is a compact 25-key standalone mini keyboard that can also double up as a USB MIDI keyboard and provides you with a range of professional production and performance tools for creating and producing exceptional sounding music. This keyboard is perfect for any music producer or live performer looking for a decent keyboard that features MIDI capabilities allowing you to use the MPK Mini Play for a variety of applications.

The MPK Mini Play inherits a wealth of features from the hugely popular MIDI keyboard controller, the MPK Mini. Sitting at the heart of the Mini Play are 25 velocity-sensitive keys that sit on a synth-action mini keybed while octave up and down buttons let you expand the keyboard so you can reach the full melodic range. The keyboard comes equipped with eight backlit MPC-style performance pads which enables you to trigger one-shot samples and loops while eight fully-assignable rotary controls allow you to edit your sounds as you please and perform automation adjustments. There is also a 4-way joystick which lets you make dynamic pitch bends as well as modulation sweeps giving you tactile control over your sound and create subtle nuances that’ll take your productions to the next level. MPC Beats is now included with the unit.

The Mini Play comes loaded with 128 pre-programmed sounds for you to utilise in your productions and performances and is fitted with its own built-in speaker so you can perform in standalone mode. The pre-programmed sounds offer everything from traditional instruments to dynamic synthesiser sounds as well as 10 hard hitting drum kits for creating tactile drum grooves and loops. An onboard arpeggiator provides a wealth of arp modes giving you retro-inspired synth phrases that can be used to spark that initial idea and includes controls for full level and note repeat.

You can browse through the library of sounds using the integrated super-bright OLED display and dedicated browser rotary control. Dedicated filter and resonance controls provide you with the ability to control the timbre and tonality of the MPK Mini Play’s stock sounds so you can finely tune your signature sound, there is also EQ, reverb, and chorus controls giving you further customisation options so you can modulate the sounds as you please.

The Mini Play keyboard is highly-portable and powered via 3 x AA batteries giving you hours of wireless fun, however, if needs be you can quickly connect to your computer via a USB connection for plug’n’play MIDI capabilities. A mini-jack headphone output allows you to hook up your headphones so you can practice and play without disturbing others or use the headphone output to connect to any external speaker, amplifier, or mixer and play your crispy jams out loud for your audience.
