    I love this interview. It shows him playing, part of his creative process, his experience coming from previous MPCs and his confidence continuing to use today’s current MPCs. Please do more! MPC is a community and 3 MPCs later (1000 in 2005, LIVE in 2018 and X SE in 2023), I get more excited to create. I could use a computer and I do, BUT the magic starts with my MPC in standalone. Thank you Akai for continuing to update my beloved MPC to keep up with today’s workflow.

I would like my next purchase to be an AKAI EWI along the lines of the Aerophone Pro models. Is that in the works? Thanks much!

      On the second question, spend time creating your signature sound. Create a core of drum samples, synth patches, etc. This will allow you to create quickly and get the idea out of your head. Sounds can be changed or upgraded later.
