Frequently Asked Questions

The aftertouch is present, but it's more subtle than what you'd find on a high-end, dedicated synth keyboard – it's geared towards the MPC’s workflow, not nuanced synth expression.
Yes, it functions as a powerful MIDI controller and audio interface, offering seamless integration with most DAWs via USB, although the MPC DAW is also fully functional.
32GB is a decent amount of space, but be mindful of sample sizes and project complexity to avoid filling it up quickly – external storage via USB is a viable option.
