MIDI Keyboard with Built-in Sounds
The AKAI MPK MINI PLAY MK3 is a compact keyboard featuring 25 mini keys and 8 MPC-style pads, equipped with 128 sounds, 10 drum kits, a built-in speaker, and a headphone output. It can be powered by 4 AA batteries (approximately 14 hours of battery life) or via USB.
Featuring a high-visibility OLED display for visual parameter feedback, the AKAI MPK MINI PLAY MK3 comes with a new generation 2-octave mini synth-action keybed sensitive to velocity, 8 MPC-style pads, 4 rotary potentiometers, and a joystick for controlling sound parameters and assignable to MIDI Control Changes, an encoder for selecting built-in sounds, and one for controlling the output volume, a sustain pedal input, and a USB Type B port for connection, power, and use as a Class Compliant MIDI Controller for PC and Mac computers.
The AKAI MPK MINI PLAY MK3 offers a standard internal sound collection consisting of 10 drum kits controllable from the Pads and 128 program sounds playable from the 25-key keyboard, including acoustic and electric pianos, synth leads, pads, etc. The transpose function (up and down) in octave steps is also included. It's possible to save up to 8 "Favorite" presets directly on the AKAI MPK MINI PLAY MK3, for quick recall by pressing the corresponding button simultaneously with one of the 8 pads. A Favorite includes the sound assigned to the keyboard (Key Patch), the Drum sound assigned to the Pads (Drum Patch), and the effect settings on the potentiometers.
While maintaining an extremely compact (317x178mm), lightweight (860 grams), and thin (58mm) design, this MK3 version, compared to the previous model, adopts a revamped and optimized miniature amplification system, offering an improved listening experience of the built-in sounds, with more volume and extended low frequencies. For an even more immersive listening experience, headphones can be connected to play in absolute tranquility. In addition to the keyboard, the 8 pads have also been improved to offer excellent touch and velocity response in true MPC style.
The AKAI MPK MINI PLAY MK3 features a programmable arpeggiator, with a Swing function and various presets, as well as a series of free software included: MPC Beats DAW for music production, the virtual instrument plug-ins Air Music Hybrid 3, Mini Grand, and Velvet, and the educational software Melodics.
