Controller-keyboard
The Akai MPK Mini IV is the successor to the iconic MPK Mini III, the absolute benchmark in portable MIDI controllers.
This fourth generation marks a major evolution, combining reworked design, enhanced playing comfort and advanced software integration. Available in two elegant finishes - black with red trim and retro gray - the MPK Mini IV is designed for both home studio producers as it is for mobile musicians looking for a complete, inspiring tool.
New 25-key velocity-sensitive keyboard
Redesigned mechanism for greater expressiveness and playing comfort. The keys are now wider, offering a feel close to that of a standard keyboard.
New pitch and modulation wheel
Gone is the joystick of the MPK Mini III: replaced by a more precise and intuitive solution, ideal for live performance.
MPC RGB backlit pads
Thicker, more compact and more responsive, the eight pads inherited from MPC technology guarantee precise rhythmic control and optimal visual feedback.
Enhanced transport section and arpeggiator
Direct access to playback, recording and quantization functions. The arpeggiator gains new creative options to boost your inspiration.
Modernized connectivity
USB-C port for simplified connection and 5-pin DIN MIDI output to drive your hardware synths and expanders.
New color LED display
Clear, intuitive interface: configure your controller, select your DAW (Ableton, FL Studio, Logic, etc.) and adjust your parameters in the blink of an eye.
Software included
New Studio Instrument Collection exclusive to the MPK Mini IV + Ableton Live Lite 12, for immediate creation and recording.
