@@lb2505 sorry, it's only for people that are capable to see, you can find a lot of podcast if you want to listen, this is a MUSIC channel, action speak louder than words 🎶🎹✨
I have purchased mine over a year ago. It is STILL in the box. I dreamed of having one. I knew little of it's capabilities. I checked out a few other videos but THIS has informed me greatly and definitely boosted my confidence. Your track at the end was bananas!! I have indeed liked and subscribed. I look forward to sharing it in the future 😊
OMG!!!! besst tutorial and unboxing video of this year......i am definitely gonna buy this awesomee...not only the akai mpk mini is super this guy made this thing extremely superb😎congrats...good job...
How many UA-cam videos did I watch to figure out the AKAI MPK Mini MK3? 50? It was your video that finally worked, thank you. As Dan said "best one i saw".
Yes its dumb question but its good to ask, its a midi controller that means that controls the midi functions from a device pc/laptop/ipad though a software, the keyboards who make sounds called synthesizers like the minimoog for example
Great video! 2 questions anyway: how can I stop the delay between tipping the key and listening? Why canˋt I hear anything, when using MPC? Sorry, I am total beginner…
Hi and thanks Mustafa! you must setup the audio driver buffer size to lower from the audio settings usually it's Asio driver, if you don't have it download it it's called asio4all
Dude, it sounds great. But how'd you get the drum sounds onto the pads. When I click on a template in MPC Beats, there's no drums on my pads, just other sounds. How do you map what you want onto the pads?
@@beingreal8955 It's not a link. If you download the MPK software manager, it's a small settings icon in the top-left hand corner. Ounce you click on that, it's a setting that says "Show Advance Software". Click on that and it will show you the MPK software to download and install.
Actually the key action on this version is much more responsive than the the 1st gen (I dont own the 2nd gen so dont know) but still 25 keys I limited for really playing, good for some chords.
Υπέροχο φίλε μου! Επειδή τώρα ξεκινάω να κάνω ένα τέτοιο βήμα και εγώ! Θα ήθελα να μου πεις τα προγράμματα με τα drums και πλήκτρα τα κατεβάζεις δωρεάν?

Sorry to ask for help here. I didn't find any other way. A problem with AKAI MPK MINI MK3. The problem is related to the sensitivity of the keys. I have to make an effort to press the keys to hear the sound normally. The sensitivity is very low. How can I fix this problem? How do I increase the sensitivity, or set the velocity range. It is a pity that immediately after the purchase I have to look for solutions to problems. Thanks.
Is the features available in akai mini previous version? like these mpc features, software manager setup, mpc beats?? I have mpk mini but it is the previous version. please help
Bought this via Amazon in India.. when played in computer, the sound is too low.. and I have to literally hit hard on the drums to make any sound.. infact the sound produced by the hit is much larger than what is coming in computer.. thought this was a product issue and got a replacement unit.. same thing on that too.. im so disappointed.. not sure why all feel so good about Akai Mini MPK 3.. anyone has a different experience???
How much you want for that beat@ 4:00 I know I'm late for this track, hope no one purchase it. I want to use it for a spiritual rap but though the holy spirit.
5:27 Download the MPK Mini Software Manager its inside, open the software manager and click to the left the settings ⚙️then choose "show me advanged softwares" and the Editor will appear on the softwares list
Sorry, this is a midi controller works only with computer softwares if you want to do this you need a synthesizer like the Korg Monologue or Arturia MicroBrute
Yes you can make any music you want, i have play rock and hip hop tracks, depents of your music software, you can do alot of electronic music stuff with ableton if you learn it
I have a question sorry if its dumb but I'm new at this: If I have a Chromebook, which option do I choose to download from, WIN or MAC? I've tried both but they don't seem to work at all. Does this mean I have to get a new device involving MAC or WIN? Or is there another way I can use my Akai with Chromebook? EDIT: need help or advice on this, really eager to play. Also Merry late Christmas
Man, this MPK3 is driving me insane, I can´t setup this whole thing. I dont know how I get the drums for exsample into the pads and safe them. I dont know how I can change the Velocity of the keys so that they arent sensitive anymore. I dont know how I can loop with this. And I dont know what the note repeat, cc, prog change and prog select does. I cant find nearly no explanation for this. I think I need to send it back.
I think I might have somehow deleted the files to make the editor work? When I open it (for mpk3) it's a blank screen and doesn't show the interface for my midi. I've deleted and reinstalled the application four times and nothing seems to fix it. Any ideas? Am I missing something?
In your music software that you using try to find a dynamic settings or curves to change the sensitivity, try a different VST plug in you can find one for free if you search on Google
Hi, I’m having some issues with the software that comes with it. When I open the piano software it just makes a horrible buzzing sound, no matter what settings I adjust or what I press. Also, is it normal to get asked if this program an make changes to my PC every time I open the software manager? When it does work the volume is very low.
You need a audio interface to handle the sound processing, if you have you must setup the buffer size higher on the audio settings (or Asio driver) of your DAW or software
@@StamatisStabos thanks for your response and sorry for asking such stupid questions lol I’ve never used a MIDI keyboard before. I have an audio interface but I’m not sure how to connect it as it’s USB, do I need some type of adapter cable

you just click with the mouse the sound and drop it to the mpc pads, you can load any dum sample you like not only from mpc

yo so after you download the softwares do I need to install them again? it says I need an activation code
Even though the mk3 is not made for piano music can you do a video just playing grand piano with a little bit of strings maybe?
Actually the key action on this version is much more responsive than the the 1st gen (I dont own the 2nd gen so dont know) but still 25 keys I limited for really playing, good for some chords.
so how exactly does one do all of this nowadays because the shit done changed drastically
and my shit all red. ian seen the same one for me at all

you need to chance the velocity sensitinity from the vst software
This may be a dumb question, but you can basically plug a usb midi controller into any laptop, right? Given you have the software as well.
Yes works on mac and pc/laptop, you plug it and then you download sofwares as you can see in the video
