Transient shaper, tuning, EQ, compression, reverb, and delay gives you a lot of freedom to customize your sounds. Add further character with multiple processing textures within each sound engine. You can fine-tune synthesized drum sounds further with a selection of different effects and processors. The “plugin” features 8 individual instances (Kick, Snare, Clap, Toms, Percussion, Hi-Hat, Crash and Ride), each with its own unique sound generator combination to deliver dynamic drum and percussion sounds. The DrumSynth engine uses a multi-synth sound generator architecture powered by FM synthesis, physical & analog modeling, and sample-based algorithms. That means you are not necessarily dependent on samples to program drum patterns. One advantage of such engines is the ability to craft your own drum timbres from scratch. The new MPC firmware 2.9 (Force 3.0.6) introduces a brand-new drum synth engine that brings advanced drum synthesis functions to the devices. Now there is another update that makes the MPC lineup and Force even more interesting. There were many updates, many new features, and a product lineup that is now convincing. Just recently, the company released the long-awaited arranger mode which was a big step forward DAWless music production.

Akai Pro takes its MPC series and Force in firmware 2.9/3.0.6 to the next level with a new drum synth engine that significantly expands the sound horizon.Īkai Pro got off to a difficult start with its new MPC range.
