The MPC X is a standalone music production workstation complete with an integrated sampler, sequencer, 10" touch screen, 16 velocity-sensitive RGB-backlit pads and 16 endless encoder "Q-Link" controls, each with an OLED display. It has a 10.1” full-colour multi-touch display, and also acts as a control surface for MPC 2.0 software. It's driven by a powerful 1.8 GHz quad-core ARM Cortex A17 processor, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of on-board storage (with over 10GB of sound content included) and a user-expandable 2.5” SATA drive bay (SSD or HDD). Power adapter and USB cable are included in the box.

There are turntable (RCA) inputs with ground peg, 2 MIDI inputs, 4 MIDI Outputs, 8 configurable CV/Gate outputs for analogue control of modular equipment like vintage synths and 2 USB-A 3.0 slots for thumb drives or MIDI controllers.

The MPC 2.0 software adds powerful features including audio track recording, real-time time-stretching (audio warping), pitch-shifting, audio and MIDI drag-and-drop, clip program mode for clip-launching, an updated mixer layout with advanced signal routing, and enhanced Q-Link control.

MPC X now comes pre-mapped to Ableton Live for an instant performance and production setup. Users have complete command over Live’s clip launching, mixer and instrument macro controls wirelessly via Wi-Fi network Ableton Link or by ethernet connection using a USB to ethernet adapter.
