Description

The MPD226 is a MIDI-over-USB pad controller perfect for producers, programmers, musicians and DJs alike. Its intuitive blend of MPC controls and technologies mesh with easy USB connectivity to bring the feel of classic beat making into the world of computer music production.

Experience the Difference
First, we stepped up our game by adding new, ultra sensitive Thick Fat MPC pads, creating an amazingly responsive user experience. The MPD226 has an expanded control set featuring four knobs, four faders, four buttons arranged in three banks for 36 total controls versus 12 on the MPD26. This will enable you to maximize your sound and give you increased control over effects.

MIDI information is sent over its plug-and-play USB interface for use on Mac or PC, eliminating the need to install any drivers.

Great controller, brilliant pads

Thie little pad controller is a great design. It's small, compact, with 3 pad banks and 3 knob banks easy to switch. The pads are very reactive, sensitive, very nice to play. They equal or are even better than Native Instrument Maschine.
The only feature that I would like extra is the colour coding of the pads to match Ableton's drum racks for a live performance setup. The MPD pads light up only red.

Useful

Great thick and sensitive pads. Unfortunately, the unit has limited editing capabilities which is acceptable at this price point. The bundled software alone is more than worth it.
