Someone on reddit posted that they spoke to a retail rep who canceled their order.

I looked at a few online retailers and both Sweetwater and guitar center say it's not available. Sweetwater says no longer available and GC says not available to ship. For me that's proof enough. With the FC ID and Akai at superbooth. Announcement this weekend. Or Thursday at the earliest.

…incoming…


For some reason akai re-ordered their device releases last time. they went live ii, x, one+, key, 61 key 37.

I am putting my guess on the "Live III". We should start gambling on it tbh it's as good as anything to bet on.

Hopefully it means a MPC Live 3 is coming out soon. I'll be looking hard at Superbooth. I really hope Akai announces something and that the replacement is right around the corner and not a year away or some isht like that...

looks like nothing at superbooth but end of may seems viable for an announcement
