Complete MPC System
MPC Studio brings the full MPC experience to your computer, combining intuitive hardware control with powerful software that inspires. Load a loop from the library, chop it into samples, lay down a beat, and then add instruments to create more melodic textures. Add some insert effects to develop the structure and arrangement of your song or create drops and transitions. MPC Studio transforms your workflow into a seamless flow of continuous creativity.

Premium Pads for Perfect Production
The quality of the pads is a top priority for any beatmaker. With MPC Studio, you can be sure that every beat and note will sound perfectly in time.

Pressure-sensitive RGB pads provide maximum expression, whether you're playing soft melodies or booming drums, with color visualization that allows you to track your velocities and pad groupings. Quickly switch between Note and Chord modes to create tracks in a moment of inspiration.

Assignable Touch Strip Control and Expression
Create your own sounds with the assignable touch controller Touch Strip. This smooth controller allows you to modify and shape sound exactly how you need it. Make your pad synthesizer more mysterious with a swell effect, control the movement of hi-hats to fill your trap beat, or make a guitar part more realistic by articulating the strings exactly where you need. Assign Touch Strip to any of the numerous knobs, sliders, and parameters for new and inventive manipulations with any track.

Color Screen for Bright Feedback
When you're immersed in the creative process, the bright color screen helps you focus on the music without taking your hands off MPC Studio. Need to trim a sound wave, browse the plugin library, or quickly adjust settings? The screen provides all the necessary visual information in an instant, without interrupting your workflow and reaching for your laptop. Your efficiency in music creation matters, and every movement should help bring ideas to life faster and finish tracks.
