Whether you’re beatmaking, sequencing external hardware, performing live, or building full arrangements, MPC XL delivers speed, precision, and creative freedom at a flagship level.

The Flagship of All Standalone MPCs

MPC XL continues the legendary MPC lineage with the most powerful standalone system Akai has ever released. Designed for modern producers, it combines advanced sequencing, clip launching, stem separation, and high-quality time-stretching in a single all-in-one unit.

Next-Generation Performance

Powered by a new Gen-2 8-core processor and 16GB of RAM, MPC XL delivers up to 4× the performance of previous MPC models. Run complex sessions, load multiple plugin instruments, and navigate large projects without interruption.

  • Load up to 32 plugin instruments
  • Record up to 16 audio tracks
  • Support for 256 simultaneous voices

MPCe Pads with 3D Expression

The new MPCe pads introduce 3D-sensing technology for deeper expression. Each pad features four independent quadrants, enabling advanced X/Y control, sound morphing, layering, looping, and modulation - ideal for expressive finger drumming and sound design.

Precision Control, No Menu Diving

  • 10.1” HD multi-touch display with adjustable tilt

  • Assignable performance touch strip for FX, note repeats, modulation, and more
  • Dedicated one-to-one buttons for core MPC functions

Advanced Sequencing & Arrangement

Deep Studio-Grade Connectivity

  • Dual XLR/TRS combo mic/line inputs with phantom power
  • Dedicated instrument inputs for guitars and bass
  • 8 individual line outputs for external mixing and routing
