No, MPK Mini MK3 is a class compliant device which means the drivers are inbuilt to Windows and Mac operating systems – If you need software to make sound, register MPK Mini on the Akai Pro website to download the included software.

Q: What are velocity sensitive Keys & Pads?

Velocity Sensitive Keys & Pads mean they’re touch sensitive – Both Keys & Pads respond depending on how much force is applied during your performance.
