Akai has launched three new pad controllers, including the MPD218, the MPD226, and the MPD232. Even the most humble of these offerings, the MPD218, includes sought-after features such as thick MPC pads, multiple banks, and smooth control knobs, plus it comes with an impressive software package. The two more advanced models include mini MIDI outputs, sliders, and multi-color pad backlighting. What’s more, the flagship MPD232 seriously ups the ante by including a 64-channel, 32-step performance sequencer.
