The MPC500 is the inaugural portable MPC, allowing you to sample and craft music anytime inspiration hits—whether you're on a subway, a plane, or relaxing at the beach! Ideal for globetrotters or local travelers alike, the MPC500 easily fits into your backpack, messenger bag, or briefcase. Once you're back in the studio, you can transfer your beats and productions to your computer via USB or into your main MPC using the interchangeable CF card.
Featuring a 48-track sequencer and a 32-voice stereo sampler, the MPC500 is equipped with 12 velocity and pressure-sensitive rubber pads. It comes with 16MB of memory, which can be upgraded to 128MB. By connecting to a Mac or PC through USB, you can seamlessly drag and drop files between your computer and the MPC500's CF card, functioning like a hard drive. With its compatibility with other MPCs, the MPC500 is the ideal solution for integrating your studio work into your on-the-go lifestyle.
