Akai MPC Fly for iPad 2
January 24, 2012 ⋅ Tech ⋅ by Alex Maeland ⋅ 21149 Views

As the technology landscape continues to change on a daily basis, it seems that new and innovative devices pose either a potential demise or an opportunity for software and electronics companies alike. Adapting its brand positioning to the changing climate, Akai debuts its MPC Fly for the iPad 2. Combining 16 backlit MPC pads into its built-in iPad 2 case, the MPC Fly is completed with an integrated iOS app that boasts an array of effects, a four-track mixer, sound library, sample editing, and an EQ. Weighing in at just over two pounds, the MPC Fly – although not the most convenient iPad case – packs a lot of punch within its relatively small size.

    You should’nt be worried of wannabees. Wackness music made by wannabees will never be appreciated. On the other side, maybe true geniuses can be found.

    If you’re worried their gonna take your top spot with an iPad MPC machine, I wouldn’t worry. Why can’t people just make beats for fun?

    I’ll stick with my Toshiba laptop and my Native Instruments Maschine. THis looks nice, but ever since I bought Maschine, it’s been slowly but surely phasing everything out in my studio,

    He wasn’t implying that music making was for rich people…he was basically saying that anyone can have this, but it takes talent to make good music….which knows NO divide.
