      I want one also but I like the way the MPC ONE kept its tradition button layout like the MPC STUDIO; but that’s a minor issue really. After seeing AveMcree demonstrations on the LIVE II; that’s what matters in reality. It has a convenient looking workflow. What do think about the MPC KEY 61 sense you just purchased the LIVE II not to long ago?

    • @dannydecanhas3743
      @dannydecanhas3743 Год назад +1

      @@RaystudiosProduction I got the Akai force and the MPC live 2. And I will say, no matter which MPC you get from the new line up, you will be extremely satisfied.
      If you don't plan on traveling much with it, and the midi keyboard you have isn't anything special. Get the keys. But if you already have a midi controller and you want something more portable. The MPC live 2 is the way to go.
      If you get the keys, it comes with a 6 plug-ins that you would need to purchase separately if you buy any of the other mpc’s.
      At the end, they are all amazing. Just a matter of what your price range and personal preference is.

      @@dannydecanhas3743 Thanks brother for the advice. Sense the Black Friday sales started and they dropped the price of the MPC One to its original retail price; I might get that or the Live II. Can’t make up my mind. Akai has so many great products that can handle any style of play or preference.
      Good looking out Danny; enjoy and try to have happy holidays with good friends & loved ones.
