AKAI MPK MINI PLAY MK3
othing says Christmas getting repetitive like family carols around the piano. Tired of the same old singalong? Remix the Yuletide tunes with Akai’s mini music maker. Barely a foot wide, this portable plaything features 25 keys and an eight-strong array of illuminated drum pads. The setup is sensitive to the speed of your fingers, so you can tinkle as quietly as bandit. A bank of more than 100 sounds means you can make like DJ Shadow, while the built-in speaker delivers the EDM ditties when you tour to your nan’s.
