Akai Professional LPD8 MKII Laptop Pad Controller (NEW)

For pure pad performance, it doesn’t get any better than the LPD8 MIDI pad controller.

Main Features

• 8 velocity-sensitive RGB-backlit MPC pads for premium beat-making 
• 8 assignable rotary knobs to control DAW plugins, virtual instruments, and more
• Sturdy, full-size USB jack 
• Program and CC Control Send functionality 
• Includes MPC Beats Music Production Software featuring thousands of drum samples and plugin instrument sounds.

The new LPD8 features the same velocity-sensitive RGB-backlit MPC pads as the flagship Akai Professional MPC X. Experience premium pad quality in a pocket-size performer and rest assured the LPD8 will stand up to the most dynamic performances, from punchy boom-baps to fast-paced finger drumming.

The LPD8 features 8 RGB pads which provide real-time feedback for your performances. Customize the colors with the included editor software to organize your samples and audio files. With 8 rotary knobs, you’re in serious command of your MIDI CC, plugin effects, or other parameters with total tactile control.

Don’t be fooled by the slim design, LPD8 also borrows from the sturdy build of standalone MPCs and is built to move around with you. The perfect companion for percussive pad playing any time.

About Us

absolutemusic was set up over ten years ago by a group of passionate audio professionals who wanted to deliver better service and greater savings on music gear than could be found anywhere else.

We’ve since grown into one of the UK’s leading music retailers and we've recently moved into a  huge new two-storey superstore boasting three massive guitar display walls and dedicated departments for drums, guitars, DJ, live sound, synths & keyboards, hi-tech and accessories. We also have four guitar booths, two soundproofed drum booths, an in-house Guitar Workshop and a unique  monitor-auditioning studio designed by acoustician Andy Munro.

Next door is our café and complex of rehearsal and tuition studios available for hire seven days a week, where we also run regular workshops, instrumental lessons, demo events and recording sessions. Soon to be added is a  professional recording studio and control room.

Every member of our 50-strong absolutemusic team is an experienced musician or engineer who can offer you accurate, expert advice on anything from vintage guitars to the latest software. We pride ourselves on always recommending the right products for the job, most of which can be sent out on next-day delivery!

As well as our busy sales and studio departments, we have a super-supportive Technical Support department who can offer advice and help with your gear, and a  flexible Hire Department offering a wide range of gear available for your upcoming events.

Join us here soon to see our amazing 14,000-square-foot showroom and 10,000-square-foot studio complex, and to enjoy our regular in-store events. (absolutemusic, Knighton Heath Estate, 855 Ringwood Road, Bournemouth, BH11 8NE)
