The Akai Professional MPC Live III marks a new milestone in the history of music production equipment. With its fully self-contained operation, advanced hardware and a wide range of creative tools, it is the ultimate tool for beatmakers, producers and performers. Whether in the studio, on the road or performing live, this MPC offers everything you need to realize your musical ideas without having to rely on a computer or DAW.

Akai Professional - Innovation with tradition

As an established name in the world of music production, Akai Professional has been synonymous with quality, innovation and pioneering technology for decades. The MPC series has always been at the heart of modern beat and sample-based music. With the MPC Live III, Akai is launching a platform that combines proven production concepts with the demands of today's music creators - uncompromising, powerful and ready for any creative adventure.

Work independently at the highest level

The MPC Live III is fully standalone, powered by the latest MPC3 OS. Inside is a powerful 8-core processor (Generation 2), which offers four times the computing power of the MPC Live II. This ensures a smooth workflow even with complex projects. Thanks to the internal rechargeable battery, you are not dependent on stationary power - ideal for mobile setups and spontaneous sessions.

A range of functions that leaves nothing to be desired

The 7-inch, vibrant touch display enables intuitive navigation through all creative processes: Sampling, sequencing, arranging and effects editing succeed quickly and precisely. The 16 MPCe pads with full-size RGB illumination feature new 3D sensor technology that enables a particularly expressive playing style. There are also 16 RGB performance buttons that can be used for automation, effect control and step sequencing, among other things.

External signals can be integrated via two combo inputs with microphone preamps - in combination with the integrated high-quality studio microphone, sampling becomes even more flexible. The USB-C interface offers versatile connectivity to DAWs, ISO and Android apps and allows audio sampling from mobile devices as well as the transfer of up to 24 audio channels in both directions. Eight CV/gate outputs are available for modular setups. Wireless functions such as WiFi and Bluetooth (incl. Ableton Link) round off the range.

Designed for diverse target groups

The Akai Professional MPC Live III appeals to a wide range of users - from classic MPC beatmakers and sampling enthusiasts to experimental musicians and traveling live performers. Modern producers in genres such as hip-hop, trap, techno or house also benefit from the flexibility and performance of this production solution. Weighing just 3.9 kg, the MPC Live III is not only powerful, but also easy to transport and mobile.

A real powerhouse for modern music production

The Akai Professional MPC Live III combines everything that creative producers need today - standalone operation, powerful processing power, high-quality audio functions and comprehensive control options.
