The MPC One+ runs on the advanced MPC operating system, introducing a range of features designed to enhance the user experience. The Enhanced Main Mode improves workflow efficiency, while the Linear Song Arranger facilitates a more structured approach to track-building. The Studio Mixer provides professional-grade mixing tools, and Advanced Keygroups expand the creative potential for sound design. The inclusion of the XL Channel Strip refines the mixing process, offering precision control over dynamics and tonal shaping.

Extensive Sound and Instrument Library

The integration of Native Instruments’ Play Series instruments and Expansion Series libraries introduces an extensive palette of professional-grade sounds. Designed specifically for MPC 3.0, these instruments offer high-quality, ready-to-use presets with intuitive controls, allowing users to tweak and manipulate sounds with ease. The Play Series provides a selection of distinctive instruments tailored for various genres, ensuring versatility in production.

Enhanced Hands-On Control

The MPC One+ retains the signature MPC workflow with 16 velocity-sensitive RGB pads, offering a responsive and expressive playing experience. Four touch-sensitive Q-Link knobs provide real-time parameter control, while 31 dedicated function buttons ensure quick access to essential functions. A single data encoder enhances workflow efficiency, making navigation through menus and settings seamless.

Comprehensive I/O and Expandability

The MPC One+ offers a wide array of connectivity options, making it adaptable to any production setup. Two 1/4-inch TRS inputs and outputs provide high-quality audio routing, while a 1/8-inch headphone output ensures detailed monitoring. Traditional 5-pin DIN MIDI input and output enable seamless integration with external MIDI gear. The unit features four CV/Gate outputs, allowing direct control over modular and analogue synthesizers. A USB-A port facilitates the connection of external storage devices or controllers, while a USB-B port enables integration with computers when needed. The SD card slot provides expandable storage, offering a flexible solution for sample and project management.
