Akai MPKMINI Mini USB Controller
The Akai MPK Mini is one of the world’s most popular and portable MIDI controllers, and for good reason—it packs professional features into a compact, travel-ready design that’s perfect for producers, beatmakers, and musicians on the go. Whether you’re laying down ideas at home, building beats on the road, or performing live, the MPK Mini is your all-in-one creative companion.
With 25 velocity-sensitive mini keys, you’ve got a responsive and expressive keyboard at your fingertips, small enough to fit into a backpack but powerful enough to handle serious playing. The legendary eight MPC-style drum pads are backlit, responsive, and perfect for finger drumming, triggering samples, or programming grooves with that unmistakable Akai feel.
Add in eight assignable knobs, an endless rotary encoder, and an intuitive 4-way joystick for pitch and modulation, and you’ve got complete control over your sounds, instruments, and effects. The built-in Arpeggiator and Note Repeat functions unlock instant creativity, while plug-and-play USB connectivity makes setup effortless.
Bundled with a powerful software suite, including MPC Beats and virtual instruments, the MPK Mini gives you all the tools to make music straight out of the box. Despite its size, it’s built tough and ready for both studio and stage.
At Musicmaker, we love gear that makes creativity immediate, and the Akai MPK Mini is exactly that—compact, inspiring, and endlessly versatile.
