Korg MPS-10

Korg MPS-10 Product Details

Description

With its unique layout, the MPS-10 offers enough space for 10 standard-sized drum pads despite its compact dimensions. It comes with 100 preset kits, over 2,350 assignable pad instruments and 3,000 samples from the acoustic drums, percussion, electronic drums, SFX, hits and impacts categories. Thanks to the integrated sampling function with audio and microphone inputs as well as the 32 GB memory, the MPS-10 can also be expanded with your own samples to your heart's content and thus completely customized to your personal taste. The clever 4-track looper invites you to create expansive live performances, and the audio tracks created in this way can be synchronized with each other and exported as individual WAV files if desired. Thanks to its polyphony of 48 voices, the MPS-10 can handle even the most complex patterns, and the clever Smooth Sound Transition function (SST) allows longer sounds to fade out naturally when switching kits. With a master reverb, two insert effects and an additional main effect, the effects section offers plenty of options for processing the sound of individual instruments or a complete kit. Another special feature are the four CC pads at the top of the MPS-10, which recognize the position of the keystroke on the X-axis and can be used to control effect settings such as filter cutoff in real time. Despite its elegant design, the MPS-10 was conceived for use "on the road" and can therefore easily cope with the toughest touring conditions. The 10 drum pads are made of a durable material with excellent rebound properties and thus convey a pleasantly natural playing feel. Their color-coded LED lighting also provides visual feedback on their current operating status at all times. Thanks to the additional inputs, up to four additional triggers, two footswitches and an expression pedal can be connected to the MPS-10 as an option. The output signals can also be routed to different channels via the four audio outputs and, thanks to the MIDI OUT socket, external sound generators can also be controlled via the pads. The generously sized color display provides the necessary information in every situation and can be clearly read even in difficult lighting conditions. The individual sounds and kits can be edited and managed particularly conveniently using the free editor software on a computer connected via USB.
