Create exciting compositions in your studio or make it easy to cue up beats and samples on the stage with the Akai MPD226 pad controller. The centrepiece of this controller is the four-by-four matrix of pads, which are both velocity and pressure sensitive to let you add extra musicality to your performance. Four banks let you change the pads' functions instantly, providing access to up to 64 functions at a time. Thanks to RGB illumination under each button, they're easy to recognize at a glance, making the MPD226 shine when used with other controllers. With four assignable faders and four assignable knobs, this controller offers excellent customisation capabilities.

The MPD226 is USB MIDI compliant, so it's easy to pair with your favourite software, and the included programs let you experiment with popular tools. The plug-and-play design means no drivers are required, so it's easy to set up on a new device, including iOS devices using a Camera Connection Kit. Thirty presets, configured for popular DAWs, help you learn some of this controller's functions.
