Support and discussion for all of Akai’s modern standalone MPCs including the MPC X / X SE, MPC Live 1, 2 & 3, MPC One / One+, MPC Key 37/61.

I was wondering if the MPC x's hardware has been revised or updated since it came out?
For instance does the jog wheel now click like the mpc one
Maybe better memory/cpu power/touchscreen improvements?

Any help MUCH appreciated.

Nothing Akai has discussed. If there are any changes they'd clearly be internal manufacturing changes related to production, and not to making the device different to the user in any meaningful way.

One of the main reasons Im posting this is:

MPC X seems a bit dated unresponsive than the ONE, even though the X is the flagship.
Screen on the X seems less responsive to a stylus pen.

The cursor buttons and knob are NOT as good as the new jogwheel on the ONE and take up way more space, its annoying there is no click on the jogwheel on the X , is this still the case?

Sorry I mean't you can't push the jogwheel to select stuff like you can on the MPC ONE
