Naturally, all of the core MPC functions are present, though Akai has made understandable concessions. The MPC One is actually smaller and lighter than the Live, but packs in more dedicated function buttons akin to the X. Finally, the MPC One enters at $799 overall, it’s a reasonable way to enter the world of standalone production units. It’s followed by the portable MPC Live which sets you back a cool $1299. Instead, each workstation serves a different set of needs which is reflected in the price-in that way, cost is not indicative of quality.įor the series, the MPC X serves as a studio centerpiece and weighs in at a hefty $2299. Even though the MPC One sits at the lowest price point, the whole MPC series doesn’t necessarily conform to the ‘good, better, best’ model. It’s a cheaper alternative to both, but by no means sacrifices functionality for affordability. The Akai MPC One is sort of a hybrid between Akai’s very popular MPC Live and X units.
