Live 3 Retro dropped

I don't think it a money grab either, the red MPCs wasn't liked by everyone, so Akai is giving people what they want - kinda.

The g2 37/One are getting a power boost but not new MPCe pads as a way to keep the price down. That means the G2 61 should have the luxury features & hopefully a tilt screen. Hopefully it'll have more qlinks & buttons. Or maybe they're planning on a new MPCe pad controller to g1 & 2 MPCs without it.

Sone mentioned the tilt screen..if akai release the key 61 G2 with a 10 inch title screen with at least 8 qlinks and quadrant pads.. live 3 owners will be selling just to buy.. i will sell my Komplete kontrol mk3 keyboard instantly.. anyone want to buy it now mint condition

IDK about that. Live owners like the battery/mobility. If anything they'd sell the Live if the new One had a battery & if they don't the extra ports in the back or use a audio-interface.

If you own live 1& 2 I see that and keep live 3 .. if not sell live 3 buy the mpc sampler and sell live 3 get key 61 mk2 that has usb c to have 24 & 32 midi channels .. you will get more on the live 3 sale
I might sell my X also

Or keep the Live & get a MIDI keyboard with a better keybed & more hands on controls.

Definitely a good idea also..

ROFL that is a retarded amount of buttons. i wonder if they looked at that and went "hmm are we over engineering this device juuuust a little?"

I bought one and the software was already registered to another account. SMH. My first mpc and I get a refurbished one for full price but a new ancient colorway. Amazon should have told me it was refurbished. Had to cancel the retro from zzzounds. Because back ordered would have took 3 months

thats crazy someone already returned it, after going through all the hoops of registering it, etc. sorry that happened to you. had no idea these were backordered - happy i got mine at launch...

I would have sent it back and waited.. GC tried selling me the XL with a dented box but they were cool and grab another one for me..
