MPC-J60 is an MPC recreation of one of the most iconic analogue synths ever made, the Juno-60, featuring over 100 multisampled instruments built for all modern MPCs, dripping with analogue warmth & authentic character.
The expansion contains 104 carefully crafted multisampled patches that capture the unique, rich analogue sound of the Juno-60. These have then been combined with the MPCs own filters, envelopes, LFO and FX to produce a very special collection of ‘MPC optimised’ keys, organs, basses, subs, leads, pads, strings, percussion & pluck patches, ideal for any style of electronic music. Check out some of the program previews:
All instruments are 100% compatible with the arpeggiator and MPC’s PAD PERFORM mode (‘Notes Mode’ on the Force) for effortless creation of melodies and chord progressions, plus we’ve pre-configured the Q-LINKS with adjustable portamento to provide optional ‘glide’ between notes.
Keyboard controllers can also utilise pitch bend for more expressive lead lines, plus there’s mod wheel control of the LFO for many of the instrument patches which adds further dynamic movement and texture to pads, keys and strings.
Requirements:
MPC-J60 is compatible with any modern MPC running MPC 2.10 or greater. This means it is 100% compatible with any of the following:
- MPC X, MPC Live (I & II), MPC One, MPC Key 61
- Akai Force
- MPC Software 2.10 or greater
- MPC Beats App
- MPC Renaissance/MPC Studio/MPC Touch running MPC Software 2.10+
- Any non-MPC controller that can be mapped to MPC Beats or the MPC Software 2.10+
The download contains a dedicated installer for standalone MPCs (including the Force) and a separate ‘drag and drop’ XPN installer for the MPC Software and MPC Beats. Full step-by-step installation instructions are provided in the included User Guide. Total disk space required is 843MB.
Built For Modern MPCs & Force
MPC-J60 is compatible with all modern standalone MPCs running MPC2 & MPC3, the MPC Software, MPC Beats and the Akai Force.
FAQs
-
Does this expansion support the arpeggiator and pad perform mode?
Yes, all our instruments are built using keygroup programs so they fully support features such as pad perform snd the arpeggiator in all modern MPCs and the Akai Force.
-
Can I play the instruments with a MIDI control keyboard?
Yes, no problem. You can use a keyboard or just use the pads (or both).
-
Is this easy to install on the MPC X/Live/One/Force?
Yes, very easy, we provide a 'standalone' version of the expansion which you simply drag and drop to your MPC/Force disk. Full installation instructions are included in the expansion download.
-
Do the instruments take up much memory?
No! We spend a lot of time optimising our programs to use the smallest memory possible, including the use of sustain looping. Most programs are in the region of a few MB each so will have little impact on your MPC's memory and you'll be able to quickly load dozens of instruments into any project.
-
Are these instruments synthesised or acoustic?
All the instruments in this collection are synthesised, using multisamples recorded from our collection of synths combined with subtractive synthesis techniques (utilising the MPC's own filters, LFO, envelopes and FX). If you are specifically looking for a collection of multisampled acoustic instruments, check out the MPC Instrument Collection.
