37-Note Keyboard Synthesizer
Akai - MPC Key 37 G2
the ultimate synthesizer for producers and beatmakersThe Akai MPC Key 37 G2 is a next-generation standalone MPC keyboard synthesizer built for producers and beatmakers who write on keys but rely on the speed and precision of the MPC workflow. Visually inspired by the iconic cream colorway of original MPCs from the late '80s, it combines a 37‑key synth‑action keybed with pitch and mod wheels, legendary MPC pads, and a powerful standalone production engine to bring melody, harmony, rhythm, and sampling into a single instrument.
Powered by MPC3 OS and a new G2 8‑core processor delivering four times the performance of the previous generation, MPC Key 37 G2 enables larger sessions, 16 audio tracks for recording vocals to external synths, and 32 plugin instances for deeper instrument capability. Increased RAM and internal storage allow projects to load faster and run smoothly, no matter how complex.
