When Akai Pro added the number ‘61’ to the name of its first MPC Key standalone music production keyboard, it always seemed to imply that smaller and/or larger versions of it could be in the offing. And it turns out that it’s the former; following multiple leaks, the MPC Key 37 has been officially announced.
It won’t surprise you to learn that this drops the key count from 61 to 37, instantly making this MPC Key much lighter and more portable than its predecessor/sibling. The keys support aftertouch, and there are dedicated pitchbend and modulation wheels. Further control comes via the four assignable Q-Link knobs.
