the MPC Element is a controller, so the MPC name may be a bit misleading – basically it’s real pads and transport controls. like the MPCs it has 3 colour LED lit pads. Anyway it is made for DAWs. it has a built in MIDI interface, note repeat – don’t know if it works maybe it could work with iPads as well since it looks a lot like MPC Fly..
Read Morethere’s 2 new controllers – the Max25 with 4 Faders (instead of 8) also has a step sequencer like the big MAX49.. aaand the sample Pad Controller (!) with display, MIDI and USB connection, 8 colour pads, sounds via SD Card!! – not an mpc but a drum sampler!
Read MoreThis is some sort of „proprietary“ but it shows, how a real new plattform is born without having your own hardware development done and concentrate on a community and your software. Or possibly this might work, meanwhile you simply can have a larger display.. ;) so this is the larger screen on the MPCs (no MPC500 but the other 2), they need a special JJOS and you wont be able to „return“ back to normal but is simply a great idea how to really extend the capabilities. http://www.mpcstuff.com check this…

Read MoreThe new MPC loads any MPC format, looks like the MPC5000 but with 16 pots and 16 pads, has access to the computer – it’s not as clear as it should be – is it hybrid or is it hardware with special access? – well it can do everything the MPCs (any of them) can do, there is (so they say) analog filtering and it’s realtime based, so it may not have TR-style sequencing (still) – the software looks a bit like a DAW and „they“ say it also integrates…
