For contemporary musicians who require portability without sacrificing functionality, the Akai Professional MPK Mini IV is a small MIDI controller. With its pro-level capabilities, user-friendly settings, and limitless inspiration for any style or flow, this creative tool is incredibly adaptable.

It provides an expressive playing experience in a small package with eight velocity-sensitive and pressure-sensitive RGB-backlit MPC pads, true pitch and modulation wheels, and an updated, third-generation keybed that leads the industry.

While sophisticated performance tools like Scale and Chord modes and an improved arpeggiator with Pattern, Freeze, and Mutate functions open up new creative possibilities, a bright full-colour screen, eight assignable knobs, and an extended transport section offer hands-on control.

The brand-new Studio Instrument Collection, a potent software synth available only for MPK Mini IV, is also included with this handy controller. For immediate inspiration, it includes more than 1,000 expertly created presets from AIR, Akai Pro, and Moog. With just the MPK Mini IV and pre-mapped 1-to-1 controls, navigating through this enormous sound library is quick and simple—no mouse is required.

MPK Mini IV is a versatile studio partner for the upcoming generation of creatives, with USB-C connectivity, a full-size MIDI output, and plug-and-play integration with popular DAWs (Ableton Live, Logic Pro, FL Studio, Bitwig, and Cubase).
