I have watched quite a few reviews on the mini plus and even though loopop does a great job of being comprehensive, none of the reviews from anyone included comparisons to vastly more expensive options. It is likely because they consider it outside of a purchasers possible comparison scope. But I like to know as many alternatives as possible and knowing what you get. I'm one of the people that MIGHT have bought a full blown synth instead of strictly sticking to a midi controller. So thank you for your thoughts on more expensive and more powerful options. Keep using all of your gear in this way. Even if it's way "apples to oranges", I don't care. I want to consider as many things as possible before I feel comfortable making a decision. Sure people might chime in and say "why would I consider a $600 synth when I am looking at buying a $150 controller?" but ignore those people. It was helpful, and no one else is doing it.

Just a small correction or expansion. You mentioned several times that you have to power it from a USB battery bank if you don't want it to power it from a computer, but you can also use one of those wall socket AC-to-USB power supplies (like ones to charge your phone from a wall outlet). A lot of USB-power-only music gear that I have bought recently even come with one.

Man, I agree with you on the software integration issue. I bought this thing thinking it was plug-and-play but no. Only the keys and pads were working and not the rest of the knobs and buttons. And that is on both MPC Beats and Logic. So frustration. To make matters worse, on the small screen, they make it seem like you can select a program template to work with your DAW. That is also not the case. Man! 😅

@19:24 are you able to see if you can set the pads to CC mode and then sequence the pads to see if it'll send a CC message to a midi channel during a specific step? I'm trying to see if this could kind of work as a hacky way of automating the CC messages. Thanks!

I currently have the advance 49 and love the VIP integration. How would this controller map out in comparison if you’re familiar with what I’m talking about? And in case you need clarification, yes I use the MPC software. Along with the MPC X

Hello Tefty. First of all - thank you for this review, you covered almost all aspects I am interesting in. But I still have some questions... On the AKAI website metioned: "...the onboard polyphonic 2-track step/live Sequencer captures new melodic and drum patterns on the fly. 8 notes of polyphony per step...". So STEP\LIVE is just the way I can create sequence like on Rolands or Monolgue where I can record it "live" or program each step, correct? And also there are two tracks so I can control two synthesizers on two different channels simultaneously, correct? Are there any kind of patterns\scenes, so can I save sequences and load them? Or I just can operate with one sequence per channel? Thank you!
@TeftyMeems
@TeftyMeems Год назад
Thanks Vladimir! To answer your questions: The Step/Live sequencers are shared but separate. So you can input a sequence for the step and then record a live sequence on top afterwards. They both share step length, sub division, and midi channel. I guess technically it's just the input method (whether you want step input or live overdub record). The drum pads are on a separate channel and appear to have a separate track for recording that you can clear independently. But the Step/Live keyboard sequences share the same midi channel and clearing the sequence will clear both the Step and Live seq. I totally forgot to mention you can save your sequence with the program. So there's 8 program slots for the memory and each one can hold a saved sequence. Cheers! Tefty

I'm always surprised no one talks about the build quality on novation launchkey. As a long time mpk user, I gave it a try recently. When I opened the box I couldn't believe how cheap it feels. Knobs are almost unusable, pads are worst than previous models and everytime you play, there's the plastic sound as it's about to break. Sent back right away.

I still don't understand why for the mk3 series akai went with clickety clack buttons. The soft buttons on the mk2 were perfect, it just needed a keybed that didn't break by looking at it. And with all the midi and connectivity issues, so far the mk3 series seems more and more like a sidestep rather than a step forward.

Are the Akai MPK Mini Plus encoders mapped to MPC's Q-Links ? Or are they only usable via MIDI learn (where Q-Links can't be targeted) ? Also, the transport buttons of the otherwise excellent Launchkey don't work at all with MPC - they are meant for Ableton... Seeing them as purely decorative placeholders infuriates me !

I have to configure the MPK using a PC and then the MPK remembers if it's powered up without connection to the PC that it's supposed to send key info to MIDI? BTW, I agree.. this is ridiculously silly... It's a controller. Seems what they've done is configure this product as a MIDI IN/OUT accessory for your PC.. ?? As a controller, one would expect it would be that the IN/OUT on the back panel should by default do as expected: Send/Receive MIDI from the keys.

I just got the AKAI PROFESSIONAL MPK MINI PLUS and about to return it. I am just a beginner and not a computer savvy, having to use a computer and a software too much complicated for me! For $169 which is a way better deal for the 37 piano keys than the mini mk3. It is just too bad that is not built in sound like the mini mk3. It would've been much easier to use on the go with batteries included as well. It could be the next generation AKAI i hope? I am a bit frustrated the fact that i wanted to use it in the band for some gigs. I am gonna try one more thing, to plug it into my Yamaha Synthesizer and see if i can get the sound out. Will see what happens 🤔 if it doesn't work i am definitely replace it with the mini mk3 😑 or maybe not , ugh!!

Hello - Having a little trouble with my new MPK Mini Plus whilst using garage band... I'm only a beginner and this is my first midi board. I'm struggling to find any answers for full integration of this midi keyboard for garage band; doesn't seem to recognise this midi keyboard after following each recommended step via Akai's website and link to their tutorials. None of the nob-wheels effect or change any software instruments I decide to use. its very frustrating, nearly 3/4 of the capabilities of this machine doesn't seem to be accessable for garage band **shrug**. Any help welcome!

You’ll need to midi learn them in GB. Look up how to midi learn in GB.

I don’t think it comes with the actual MPC software.

It was MPC Software, but as far as I understand, Beats is basically the "lite" version of the main software with the limitations of 8 midi tracks and 1 audio track.

Watched this because I recently downloaded Logic Pro and ordered an MPK Mini Plus to play with. Now realising I'm completely out of my depth and need to go back to some basic learning ;(

I noticed it doesn’t integrate well with the MPC One hardware. I’ve had to many map almost everything. The transport buttons don’t work at all. It ingrates perfectly with the mpc beats software but what a shameful missed opportunity to out of box integrate with the mpc one hardware

Akai I just doesn’t listen to customer feedback so don’t expect separate midi for knobs any time soon
