The MPC software as a fully featured DAW: the legendary MPC production system for anyone who works with MIDI controllers, no MPC hardware required.

MPC 2 combines the proven MPC workflow with the tools of a fully featured DAW: 128-track sequencing, audio track recording, real-time time-stretching and pitch-shifting, clip launching, advanced MIDI editing plus sampling and audio editing. The software supports third-party MIDI controllers from makers such as M-Audio, Native Instruments, Alesis and Novation with templates for all popular models, and Global and Project MIDI Learn let you control parameters from keyboards, pad controllers and MIDI mixers. Humanise functions for timing and velocity and randomly generated melodic patterns and drum beats spark new ideas, while MIDI Multi and comprehensive MIDI routing bring external synthesisers, drum machines and sound modules into your productions. Audio and MIDI drag-and-drop, Ableton Link and DAW integration let MPC 2 slot seamlessly into existing setups.
