MPC Key 37 G2 is a next-generation standalone MPC keyboard synthesizer built for producers and beatmakers who write on keys but rely on the speed and precision of the MPC workflow. Visually inspired by the iconic cream colorway of original MPCs from the late '80s, it combines a 37 key synth action keybed with pitch and mod wheels, legendary MPC pads, and a powerful standalone production engine to bring melody, harmony, rhythm, and sampling into a single instrument.
