They haven't even mentioned it in passing, any other time ANYTHING happens about MPC's they're all over it, throwing up videos about any old rumour.

This tells me that they already have one and are either working on a launch video or have done one and are just waiting for the embargo end on October 2nd....which is of course on a "Thursday" Akai's favourite day to launch stuff.

Next thursday all their videos will hit the fan :)


Bolo was a big one to be silent about it, but he finally posted a handmade drawing of a MPC on his feed. :lol:


Same facial expression as always so u know he gonna post @ 12am on the 2nd of October if that's the day :-D :-D

Damn...


what text do you need? it says mpc live 3 on the top. no doubt they have the flap the opens up with more info on it as well as the back. this way, the product shines since there's no wording covering up the photo. makes sense to me from a sales point advantage. people don't read first -- they see the product first, then go in for a deeper look…

Look at the other 2 boxes. This looks like it could be Ai/Photoshop. I'm not stressing it, I don't even want this MPC, tho I'm the OP :shock: :lol:

:-D :-D we have to start asking ourselves how much better technology is going to be with always buying the new MPC released.. 30 years ago to now Hugh difference but since 2019 until now minimal.. I'll wait but will definitely geek out when I go to guitar center .. :-D :-D

I do too, but then after a few minutes the feeling subsides and I am surrounded by mediocre gear. I WILL however be right there for mpc se-x-y when it arrives. Right now, that’s the ONLY thing that will make me move.
